I have a question~~~ *raises hand* When writing hangul, does the order/direction of the strokes matter? I have a workbook that shows the "proper" way to write them, but I'm not sure if its a mandatory thing like when writing Chinese characters. Thanks ^^

Hi! That's a good question!

Actually it is not mandatory. In elementary school you will learn to do it the "proper way" but it is not really something that will be looked at later. What matters is mostly to have all the syllables to be the same size. So for example look at the size of 아 now look at it when it's part of a word : 안녕하세요. The size will change to make sure everything stays within the same "block".

I hope this answers your question! Feel free to ask more! :)

It’s been a while since we’ve met Your face looks good You got prettier, you were always beautiful in my eyes

But today you look a bit different You look especially a bit cold Your eyes that look at me are filled with pity In front of you, I seem smaller

I tried to be fine, trying to change the subject Though I had so much I wanted to ask you You cut me off right away Your long hair flowing As it hit my cheek and passed away You turn away and left right away If I try to catch you here, would that be too ridiculous?

Nothing comes to my mind As you tremble, you take a step, two steps back You say that I scare you now You’re like a moon that makes me go crazy

I love you baby I’m not a monster You know how I was in the past When time passes, it’ll all disappear Then you will know baby I need you baby I’m not a monster You know me so don’t leave like this If even you throw me away, I will die I’m not a monster

No matter what happens, let’s be forever When we’re sad, when we’re happy, let’s go till the end You don’t say that tomorrow Let’s love like today is the last

A life without you is like an imprisonment for life An extinction from the world to the point where I’d go crazy Your existence is a chronic disease, a repitition of pain You’re a lingering attachment in my heart

The people of the world have turned their backs against me The corners of their eyes are all twisted up The greatest pain to me, Is the fact that you became the same as them

I love you baby I’m not a monster You know how I was in the past When time passes, it’ll all disappear Then you will know baby I need you baby I’m not a monster You know me so don’t leave like this If even you throw me away, I will die I’m not a monster

Don’t go, don’t go, don’t go, don’t leave me Don’t do it, don’t do it, don’t do it, it’s not like you Getting farther away, love is breaking apart

Don’t find me, don’t find me, don’t find me, don’t look for me The last, last, last image of me in front of you – remember that Don’t forget me

I love you baby I’m not a monster You know how I was in the past When time passes, it’ll all disappear Then you will know baby I need you baby I’m not a monster You know me so don’t leave like this If even you throw me away, I will die I’m not a monster

I think I’m sick I think I’m sick I think I’m sick I think I’m sick

The hardest part about learning Korean is learning Korean.

[koreanlessons]

I don't know how to explain that, but I guess to make it simple I should say I just love you.

The winter has passed And the spring has come We have withered And our hearts are bruised from longing

(I'm singing my blues) Used to the blue tears, blue sorrow (I'm singing my blues) The love that I have sent away with the floating clouds, oh oh

Under the same sky, at different places Because you and I are dangerous I am leaving you It's cowardly but I'm hiding because I'm not good enough Cruel breakup is like the end of the road of love No words can comfort me Perhaps my lifetime's last melodrama Now its final curtain is coming down

I was born and I met you And I have loved you to death My cold heart that has been dyed blue Even with my eyes closed, I can't feel you

The winter has passed And the spring has come We have withered And our hearts are bruised from longing

(I'm singing my blues) Used to the blue tears, blue sorrow (I'm singing my blues) The love that i have sent away with the floating clouds, oh oh

I feel like my heart has stopped beating You and I, frozen there, after a war Trauma, that has been carved in my head Once these tears dry up, I will moistly remember my love I'm neither painful nor lonely Happiness is all self-talk I can't stand something more complicated It's no big deal, I don’t care Inevitable wandering, people come and go

I was born and I met you And I have loved you to death My cold heart that has been dyed blue Even if you have left, I'm still here

(I'm singing my blues) Used to the blue tears, blue sorrow (I'm singing my blues) The love that i have sent away with the floating clouds, oh oh

Again tonight, underneath that blue moonlight I will probably fall asleep alone Even in my dreams, I look for you And wander around while singing this song

(I'm singing my blues) Used to the blue tears, blue sorrow (I'm singing my blues) The love that i have sent away with the floating clouds, oh oh

(I'm singing my blues) Used to the blue tears, blue sorrow (I'm singing my blues) The love that i have sent away with the floating clouds, oh oh

It is great to be able to appreciate what we already have and who we currently are but we should never give up on improvement. Seeking for perfection, even if it is unattainable and gets us out of our comfort zone, will take us away from laziness and bring us to a better life.

I recently discovered this Korean Artist based in Seoul. I greatly appreciate the mix of drawing and Korean fashion design. It is original and well done.

Here is one of the drawing made by this artist called Seryeon Kim.
