Korea....again?

Assalamualaikum.

Korea again? Yerpp.  As the title said above. It's Korea again... How can I stop myself from going there. Its my joyful place, my love.

I don't really think of other place instead of Korea but I do however,still in my deepest hehart, wanted to go to Japan, Germany, Norway etc someday. InsyaAllah.

But for now, Korea is the most affordable ( still expensive lah in the name of travel but way cheaper than europe and its neighbour country )... But someday insyaAllah when I able to earn money, I will go.


Travel and witness the beauty of Allah creation,what's wrong that.

[ MOVIE ] The Odd Family : Zombie On Sale

Hello people.

Previously the most popular zombie when it comes to the land of kimchi/kpop will always be Train To Busan. Who doesn't love that Gong Yoo movie. Epic one!

And yes it still Train To Busan until now iny opinion.... Eventhough they tried to make another zombie movie but using joseon era by title Rampant ( handsome Janghyuk as hero....come on!) , nothing can still beat Train To Busan.

However.... Today me and my husband are sitting down after dinner, watching TVN movies title The Odd Family : Zombie on sale.  Or in korean language 기묘한 가족 ( gimyohan kajuk )

At first the title itself didnt attract me but while I was nursing my little twins, I could hear my husband kept on laughing. He claimed the scene are too funny. Its a movie about a family, an odd one of course. They accidentally met one zombie and to make long story short, their father got bitten by it. Terrified on how it will make their father become a zombie too, somehow it didn't. In fact, their father become younger, youthful vibe and strongly active.

This bizarre condition lead them to make profit from it as the village people also wanted to look young etc. They named the zombie Park Jjongbi. In order to look young and radiant, the village people need to let Jjongbi bite them. And when they thought everything is going with the flow, the village people somehow turning into zombie itself and chaos happpened.

Trailer.

The movie kinda remind me of Warm Bodies if you have watch it you might agree with me. But its fine with me because warm bodies also my jam and favorite. Probably because of the soft hearted jjongbi and not forget to mention he is good looking. Plus, the theme is family and sibling bonding when you find different characteristic in everyone starting from oldest brother and his wife, second brother and youngest sister. Its Its hilarious yet so comedic .

If you are looking for simple funny and entertaining movie, I suggest you guys to watch this. Its hella funny I was laughing so much.

My 'everything' first time to Korea

Hello ladies and gentleman..

A very very good evening to all of you and assalamualaikum to those who are muslims.
How was your day today anyway?

While waiting for isya pray time, I lay down lazily like a polar bear on my bed and my mind reminisce Korea moment.

So much of my memory preoccupied on memory from my multiple Korea trip experience.

How i really missed korea.... Huuu

Husband pose so handsomely beneath windy chill sun

My latest trip is my honeymoon trip. It was quite different from other trip because going to a places with husband is not as havoc as the one with crazy headed bunch of friends.

Simply because honeymoon itself plays a different role in portraying vibe of the trip but for all that matter, both of us love the food so much and the scenic environment too.

Gazing toward the sky~ 

It was my husband first ever long haul trip and his first time also stepping his foot onto Kimchi land. How sweet.

There is a few hassle moment when his shoes protest ( lol ) so we had no choice but to go to Dongdaemun shoes area to buy him a pair of new shoes. Comfy yet affordable and he loves it.

Can he really contain his excitement 😂

The shoes are undeniably comfortable yet so stylish. He loves it so much....really loves it I guess. 

Perhaps whats make it more fun is he enjoyed the food as much as I did. Since we visited Seoul around March so its still end of winter. Hence, winter fruits are everywhere. 

One of my ultimate is of course Korea strawberry....heyyyy it was fantastically sweet and delicious. Unlike the one I taste in my country. Perhaps the weather and soil is good for sweet strawberry growth.

And  there is also one newly food I tried which I never tried during my previous trips. Its none other than fried tteok... I got to taste it at Tongin Market. And it was hella delicious even my husband loves it ( he did not like the taste of normal tteokbukki tho )

If I ever going back to Korea next time, we will definitely munch this food again whiwe joining dosirak cafe activities ( old coin exchange food activity ). Period! 

Yums...we took spicy and soy sauce coated.

Both super yums.

Look at that....!!!!!

Although we our trip was for seven days but we only felt super cold weather on the first three days and mostly because of chilly wind. The rest of the trip still cold but with sun so its just so-so.


How we wish the snow still falling. Heheh

So this is all for now.
Going to write more later.
Seee ya!

It's all about Korea and snow

Annyeong people...

Hello hello hello.
Yesterday marked Seoul very first snow for this year. Cheotnun ( 첫눈 ). Some of my friend who were in Korea right Now, I envy you! Kak Lely, Wenie, Amanda... I envy you. Hukkk~

The beauty of snow is enchanting, exciting and intriguing

Just a throwback picture of Prof Zila

I remember the moment when I touched the falling snow from the sky. Oh my its wonderful. I seriously thought it was some sort of dust or something flying across the air. Until my friend Prof Zila scream snow! snow! And we were at Namdaemun Market that morning. What a heavenly moment to be remembered.


We're both so excited we ignored the rest of local people looking and judging but most of them just decided to ignore Zila and I. How funny.

She never stop posing... 😂

We were screaming and jumping I even want to rolling on the floor but no worries I didn't even do it.

It was my first snowfall experience ever although yesterday I already went to Yongpyong Ski Resort and experienced so much snow. However it wasn't the one falling from the sky. But still, its thicker and cold because we went todragon peak using cable car and it was like freakin up high and even colder with the wind are even greater. I remember we're struggling and shaking our hand like crazy and so many pictures are failed to be taken due to excessive shake.

But still, its exciting. The view of Dragon Peak is beyond priceless. Moreover both of us went there when Goblin was still hot and newly aired. Such a perfect timing and guess what even Gongyoo poster was there. Awww...

Not much of a tourist this time in this area but plenty of guys and girls who playing the snow boarding and ski at the other side of this area.

Breathtaking~

SUBHANALLAH

From morning until late evening the snow kept coming and kept falling beautifully and in some area it turned out a bit heavy. Ahhhhh I am super duper excited and even giggling now while typing this entry. That's how big my ♥ toward snow. Lol

Even car covered with snow view making me go crazy...lol

I screamed seleji seleji like crazy maniac and my friend almost give up for super cold weather. Our finger froze and we barely even felt our hand. That's the coolest thing being in cold weather. Ahaha...and I love cold weather.

Ahhh the memory.
Ahhh how I missed it.
The smell of snow...
The beauty of snow...
The cold air due to snow...
The dangerous but still exciting black ice also because of snow...
The moment when it falls softly like a cute little flakes...aww

추워 날씨 너무 좋다 ♥

I missed Korea.

Some korean word and slang pt.2

Hi everyone. Hello ;)

This is second part of my entry for basic korean word and slang. I just thought of sharing.

Usually it is use in a quite formal or semi formal sentences. Adding 'yo' making it sound even more polite. Jeongmalyo?

Jinjja ( 진짜 )

This one often be heard inside kdrama and among teenager. They will said this with exaggerrate expression and it looks xue. Jinjja? Jinjja.... ah jinjja.  I myself always said this.

Neomu ( 너무 )
= Very ...
Sometimes people said this and sometimes using jinjja. Even Kpop group I.O.I sang a song called 'very very very' / neomu neomu neomu.  Basic word and often used in every sentence.

mianhae ( 미안해 )
= Sorry.

Jigeum ( 지금 )
= Now.
Ahaaaaa....I remember myself munble this word over and over again everytime my friend ask me if we need to go anywhere, do anything at that time. Jigeum? Jigeumyo.

Naeil ( 내일 )
= Tomorrow.

Uri ( 우리 )
= We .

Dasi ( 다시 )

Jangnan aniya ( 장난 아니야 )
= Don't joke around! Now return the scream by saying this. Lol. Now I'm starting to make this turn out into sentence. Ahahaha.



Okay this will be second part and short one. Sorrryy....I try to do longer and more in third part later on.



Bye~

Some 'korean' slang and word pt.1

Hi...

I would like to create an entry about some words which often used and heard among Kpop fans or those who are into Korean entertainment. This won't be full list but at least all basic stuff I had in my head.

Common words which easy to pronounce and speak. I myself love to randomly blurt all those random korean word.


Oppa ( 오빠 )
= Brother for sibling but this word only applicable for female toward male / lover also use this often. Girlfriend would call their boyfriend oppa. Sounds loving.

Hyung ( 형 )
= This is the one use by male to call for an older male to show respect. Or little brother calling his older brother. Cute !

Noona ( 누나 )
= This is for younger male calling an older female. Or little brother calling his sister. Woman should never use this call their older sister okay.

Dongsaeng ( 동생 )
= Little brother or sister. Aha.... Unlike japanese word, Korean use this to imply both gender.

Eomma ( 엄마 )
= Mother ....

Appa ( 아빠 )
= Father ...

Chingu ( 친구 ) 
= Friend . Or if you want to say my good friend you can just say joheun chingu or johchin ( slang ).

Eottokke ( 어똑해 )
= What to do.
This one seriously often be heard if you love to watch K-drama.

Omona ( 오모나 ) 
= Oh my goodness , oh my god.
Ahaaa...when you pronounce this,put your palm to cover your mouth. Cute expression.

omona usual expression~

Jebal ( 제발 ) 
= Please.
Its a word to say please to someone. Such as help me do this and that, jebal... If you put juseyo behind the word, it will become even more like pleading nicely. Jebal juseyo.

Yeppo ( 예뻐 )
= Pretty. Its often use to describe people/human and sometime things.

Areumdaun ( 아름다운 )
= Beautiful. Also indicates as beautiful but usually to describe scenery...but sometimes also on human. Such as areumdaun yeoja ( pretty woman )

Yeoja ( 여자 )
= Lady , woman, female

Namja ( 남자 )
= Man, male , guy





Ahaa.....how was it. I may stop for now but will post more later on.

I am still very very lack in this language but I love learning korean hangeul. So, this entry is to share some random basic words. See ya.

KPOP : Alphabat leader B:eta Ji Hayong

Heyyy....

 This is a special entry from Mira☆ to Hayong. Well, I'm forever his Mira☆ right 😂💁

B:eta of Alphabat

His name is Ji Hayong or his stage name for kpop group Alphabat is 'B:eta'. Born in 1987. Yes he is a month younger than me but we're same age or korea said as 동갑(?).

Although he is quite old compared to current kpop idol age range, his ultimate babyface and act are soooooooooooooo unbeatable.

peekabooo....

Such a cute man but a leader for his group. Oh, before joining Alphabat, he was a leader for another kpop group ( already disbanded way before ) called HITT. Still holding the role as short baby face cutey but sexy leader. Ahahaha me being biased. Sorry.

Awwwwww...

I can never get boring spazzing about Hayong. He's such a sweetheart. Thanl God I got a chamce to meet him eye to eye, face to face and even talked to him when Alphabat visited Malaysia. Although secretly I wished I meet him when he was in Hitt so that I can meet the ret Hitt members as well. I'm such a Hitters ( Hitt fanbase name ) but also an Alpha ( Alphabat fanbase name ).

Alphabat members

He just came back to industry after undergo mitary training in Korea and Alphabat are no longer the same. Only left with four member but still, as long as Hayong still in it, I care only about him. Sorrrryy...

That's normal in kpop industry. Not all group are able to stick together as one...not even the one from biggest company. So , as long as your favorite group is there, keep supporting them. We never know what will happen in future.

cute teeth...cute smiles

Yes its like 3 years ago when I met Alphabat, Hayong and gathered all those meaningful precious memory but I decided to keep it treasure within my heart. I will always support him. Yeah, we're same age anyway. Apart from treating like an idol, I looked at him as a friend too. A friend that watch from afar.

Goodluck cutey pie.
Stay cute!


Love,
미라별

KOREA TRIP #2 : Part two of excitement

Hey ya~~~~

Let's continue with another excitement. A sole continuation of excitement. It can never gets boring.
While I plan to write this, I spend many hours looking at the pictures folder and giggle still.
I am insane. LMAO

This sign will lead you to airport transit train toward the terminal. Just follow this...or 

follow other passenger. Don't worry much 💃

As soon as I step out from the aircraft, since I was all alone and very confused, I decided to follow the other passenger. Hence that's what I'm doing. Following them wherever they take me. lol... it led me to this signboard (?) and of course I took a snap of it. Don't worry Incheon Airport got so many sign so you won't be lost. Even if you do, just ask around. Don't be scared.

With my cheapskate camera and excitement... I took this photo while walking 

(so that I won't missed the other passenger I followed )💋

Incheon International airport is huge. You might wander here and there but just enjoy. If you ever lost or confused, do enjoy. Hahaha... because you still at the airport so why panic? . I love the scenery offered by this airport. So high tech yet tons of flower and decoration.

seeeee!!! it's gorgeous.

I kept walking, took the train toward the terminal. Settle passport and bammmmm.... waiting for the luggage. Whilst I was there, my eyes kept lurking arouund. So many idol, celebrities poster promoting various product. They become ambassadors and such.

The first thing I did when I finish all those ( before I leave the airport ), I sat down and relax and regain my composure. Nervous? Yeppp...who says not. It was my first and I was all alone in a country far from my own hometown, away from family. I am scared and worry too and its normal. I tried to open the airport wifi .

If you refer below picture. Yep the first three item. Banana utu, vitamin c drinks and T-money.

Banana uyu - To surpress my hunger and as a light breakfast. ( Also because I am so excited to finally able to taste this. Lol )

Vitamin C drink - Because its cold and I kinda have a minor flu and to avoid myself from having fever which will definitely ruined me...I drink it. Yummy. Also, I often saw this kind of healthy drink in kdrama. Yeahh call that as influenced. )

T-money - The most important thing ever....apart from your credit card and cash and passport. Lol. This card is important if you are backpacker or traveller like me who planned to use their public transport. You can even pay foods and drinks at any 7eleven, Gs25 or any 24-hours convenient store. What a way to make super convenient card.

So.... Till we me meet again. I dont want to make this post become extraordinary longer. I rather cut it a bit abd post plenty. Guys, if you have any questions or curiosity, do not hesitate to ask. I can reply even if you speak in Indonesian language, malay language, english.

This is the first three things I bought.

What makes people want to visit Korea

Hey peepssss...

How are you guys?
I have notice a bit increase in blogpost of my beginning entry post of my solo trip to Korea. It hit me that people love Korea.

First of all thank you so so so much for spend your precious time reading. I promise I will comeback with next entry of part two. Be sure to wait. You can subscribe or follow this blog as well. Trust me I can never stop babling about Korea and willing to share as much experience and knowledge as I can.


If you are into Korea...
Or always want to visit Korea..
Still confuse about Korea...
Want to gather more information before travelling ( this one, I did a lot before my fort trip ).
Whatever your reason is, I hope I can share
my enthusiasm and information which might be useful for you. I know that's what I love to do.
If you ever want to ask me question too, feel free to leave a comment or just drop me an email okay?

People might have plenty of reason that sparks interest toward Korea. Be it Kpop, Kdrama, Kshow, culture, food or whatever reason is. People always have one point to ensure them to fall in love.

Like me...
At first I always love travelling.
Then , I am into Kpop music.
Next, I love watching their drama and enjoy the scenic and scenery view. Yepp those who know me will agree on how much I love building. lol

I think Korea entertainment has contribute so much and a lot toward growth population of tourist and popularity of their country.

Hopefully Malaysia will sparks the same way too.
What about you?

KOREA TRIP #1: My first ever solo trip ~part one~

First ever solo trip of mine!

It's a valuable lesson. journey and experience. I thank Allah for all the blessing and chances.
It started with a simple yet hopeful mindset.

TO VISIT MY DREAM PLACE, KOREA!💓

Alhamdulillah I made it.

It does seems impossible to grab and experience this moment if I sat down sitting and imagining stuff 10 years ago but I never thought within 5 years after that , I'm actually stepping my foot onto that country.

It was a full blessing from Allah to me. I am just a normal people with low salary income permonth,w orking in ground oepration department ( in airlines that time) and thank God I can get a cheap ticket because I'm a staff but to visit Korea requires money. Plus it was my first time ever so you can expect being so lil lillo confuse here and there. Every single day I read and keep reading about Korea Trip made  by various blog. Collectiong all data , information and such. I am super duper determined!

Finally the day come and shewwwwwwwwwwwww I am so excited because its a winter season. So cold, so much coldness it definitely hitting my sense. The winter, the windy air, the humid yet super cold surrounding. Fuhhhhhhh. Even there is snow falling from the sky but the remainder snow on the road was enough to satisfy my eager joyness. It's not easy to satisfy me *lol*. Coming from Tropical country, witnessing a snow is so entertaining. I saw tons of snow even from Incheon Airport duing landing. Blessing!

I think I am the only person who couldn't sleep during 6 hours long night flight because my heart is so pumping with joy. Eyes wide open even during the cabin flight turn off and my feeling mixed up with so many emotion. Everytime the cabin crew walked to sell their product, I smiled so wide, so big.

Now that I re-think and reminisced back the memory, it does seemed silly. Hahaha.,😜😜

No need for pretty picture if the imperfect shaking pictures 

can defined my super excitedness. lmao

I took Airasia flight. Thank God we have Airasia and blessed to be able to visit Korea with  low budget but since you're taking a low cost flight, do not expect a full premium comfortableness. Alright?

I was giggling, smiling like an idiot this time okay.💆

Seriously guys, if you ever feel like travelling or have some dream destination in your head. Plan it!!!! put a mindset and picture the desire in your head!!!! and try your very best to execute it. Nothing is impossible if you put your mind, body and heart into it. God will not despise your effort. Sometimes you get it late but eventually you'll get there. 

Since this is my first ever part for this trip and please aware that I will post whatever I have in mind etc. This trip happened 5 years ago so please expect that some of the info might be missing etc. If you have any questions, curiosity or even wanted to say hi, just drop me a comment. 

I just cut the entry short because I want to post more and more and more. 

Hey ! Love you.  Thanks for reading this.

Korean tv show 'SING MY SONG'

K-show.

There is so many TV shows airing in various channel provided by Korean broadcast company.

Name it. You have SBS, KBS, MBC, TVN, Arirang etc etc ...so much more. Back then, we have a little less option but now you can have tons. Thanks to the rapid growth of Kpop and Kdrama industry as well as internet benefits.

I remember back then it wasn't easy to go online and watch korean drama morever korean tv show , reality show. Plus in Malaysia that time, internet isn't as great as now because I'm a student with lack of money. Haha *shed tears*

Now you have plenty of website to watch online or maybe even download it. Just recently I watched KBS tv shows called 'Sing my song' and man it was so funny. Its a show where the Mc Yoo Jaesuk called for a few guest and have them sitting in one karaoke center. Tbh I just watch the first part so its still a bit confusing to me and the second part still not airing. Perhaps I can just visit KBS channel at youtube and re-watch.

Sounds nice right. The guest list was Sistar Soyou, So chanhwe, Rocker Kyungho and Weki Meki Yoojung and Doyeon.  I missed the first ever episode where they invited Kim Taewoo and more.

Good things about their tv show is although the mc for all are almost the same but its so refreshing to watch. The laugh the gag. It's totally mind relaxing at least for me.

Have you watch that Sing My Song show?

Random thought of Korea

Have you ever come to Korea?

Heyyyy its a nice country. I plan to create tons of entry regarding my Korea trip as I visited there plenty of times already. Alhamdulillah.

To me, Korea is a safe place. Oh to be exact I only visited Seoul area. My plane landed in Incheon International Airport. But I did went to Incheon once during Bigflo fansign. Ojoo the suffer but its a nice experience...sadly not much of photo that time as my camera encounter trouble.

Yessss I am kpopers. lol

How about you?
