Elaine 링's 세계

봄봄봄 -루싸이트 토끼

Today, I just simply want to share a Korean song that I really fell in love with it after listening to this song.  < Hug Me 안아줘> sung by Jung JunIl (Mate). This is very sad love song.

It reminded me how much missed him and how lonely I was when he was not around. I tried to endure the pain which had woke me up in the midnight, wailing in sadness while calling your name over and over again. My tears rushed down along my cheek and the rain started to pour from the gloomy as it understood how i felt. I wondered why the night was so long and serene. No more darkness, no more melancholy. I was able to fall asleep again since I was too fatigued to shed anymore. But the moment I closed my eyes, I heard your footsteps and your heartbeats audibly. I knew you were there waiting for me. Without any thought, I ran toward to you without wearing my favorite sapphire ballet shoes. At the moment, I ran into his embrace, he diminished into the thin air. I missed your last hug and i lost you forever.


"That's how i feel when i'm listening to tis song." ...
I created the story hehe :)

Here is the Translation:
(English Version)- Translated by Elaine 링

I couldn't overcome the sadness
I couldn't sleep and endure the darkness
The indifferent morning woke me up

The scar is even hurt than I've expected
The pain is even deep than I've expected
I yearned for you like being in the hell on those nights


Please stay with me, remain close to me
Please hold my hands and say that
If you're one step farther away from me
You just need to go one step closer


Even in a day,  thousands times
I keep on thinking about your face
The heartless words you've said to me
Icy cold eyes of your face.

You've been a lovely person
You've been a lovely person
Please do not do this to me coss you know me very well

Please stay with me, remain close to me
Please hold my hands and say that
If you're one step farther away from me
You just need to go one step closer

I'm not me if you're not beside me
I cannot bear a day without you
Now what should I do
I don't know without you

Just hold me, cuddle me
Please come to me and  say
With a lonely and anxious heart
I'm waiting for you

I love you I love you
I murmur in the silence
What a silly and fragile heart

***You can find the Korean version lyrics in youtube ^^
Hope you like the song !

For those who like to enjoy sightseeing in a cozy place without exposing themselves to blazing sunshine and freezing winter, I would like to recommend some of the unique and romantic cafes on the Han River.

                                       1. Cloud Cafe (동작구름카페)

                                 2. Red Sky Cafe (동작노을카페)


I went to Cloud Cafe a few weeks ago. It was a very cold night and I yearned for a warm place to settle off myself and have a good rest. When i arrived on the spot, i saw both of the cafes since they were not far away from each other. The structure of both cafes are round in shape and the appearance of buildings just look marvelous. I was really surprised on the moment i went inside the Cloud Cafe. The cafe's interior design gives me a kind of mysterious and romantic feelings. It makes you want to date with your bf/ gf !

When you choose the seat, please choose the window side as the scenery at night is magnificent. Each table in the cafe has its own mini candle which creates a romantic surrounding for lovely couples to cherish their precious time together and enjoy the view of Han River by looking out the windows. I'm not very sure about the food there but most of the people ordered Western food. Thus, i think the food must be delicious and the price is affordable. Unfortunately, i missed the chance to try the foods since I was out of money on the time!

By the way, I recommend you to go there at night if you want to experience the romantic time while looking out through the huge windows ^-^

For the direction:
Take the subway line no.4 to Dongjak station (동작역) and get off. Then come out from the station and you will see the cafes.

Since then, I've started to check for his new acoustic video whenever I surf Youtube.

This is how the Hello Kitty cafe looks like. My friends said this cafe is quite well-known so i decided to go there.I went there with my Malaysia Indian friend who recently study in Seoul. As we were not certain about the location of the cafe,we walked for around 1 hour in order to reach there. Actually it wasn't that hard to find the cafe. The cafe is located at the center of one of the streets called Sinchon street (신촌로). In fact, there is another similar Hello Kitty located at Hongdae Street. I will show you the directions  to both of the cafes at the end of this post. 







This is the one of the Hello Kitties inside the cafe. It's cute and i love it. We actually took a lot of photos and lost ourselves in the HK cafe. The lights are quite dim but it really creates an romantic surrounding. 









There are many pairs of couples who always choose the best corner for dating whereas other corners no one sits there.  Almost all the wallpapers are either pink or white. I think this is one of favorite spots for lovely couples.





This were what my friend and I ordered. A cup of sweet potato latte and a cup of yogurt strawberry ice-cream. Actually in Malaysia, 
i seldom see a drink like sweet potato latte before. For me, this taste is simple amazing. Whenever you are tired, you just need to drink this and you will refill your energy immediately. Surprised? I still love sweet potato latte until now!







What's that? Can you see a Hello Kitty with its side look? It's cute,right? The actual image was clear and fresh, i didn't know why the picture looks blur. Anyway, I feel like wanna keep it >_<









I felt hesitated to leave Hello Kitty Cafe since i didn't have much time to stay in Seoul. 
I want to eat those cake. It seems so delicious!  I shouldn't go back to Daejeon~
Yummy cakes, wait for me!

Sinchon Hello Kitty Cafe

Hongdae Hello Kitty Cafe

Get off at the Sinchon Station (신촌역) Exit no. 2 and follow the red line direction on the map. Your destination is marked by the blue flag.













Get off at the Hongik University Station (홍대입구역) Exit no. 2 and follow the red line direction on the map.Your destination is marked by the blue flag.








In case you stay in other regions in South Korea where you think it takes plenty time to go to Seoul to hang out, why don't you come to Daejeon?

The beautiful stone-walled Jeongdong Street is more than just a place where lovers come to walk; it is also the location of some of the most historically significant places to modern Korea. This course is wonderful because of its focus on sites with such modern historical importance.

We went for hiking with our Korean language professor because we didn't have any classes today. I love hiking very much.That's why I get excited easily when our professor invited us to go hiking with him! 
Let's start!

This is the real hiking...all stones ,no staircase at all...

Water from waterfall ,the water tastes sweet,right? Be careful. It's slippery.

                              
                            
                          
                           
                          
                                
                                
                                

                           
Drum Cat is coming very soon ! ! 
They will perform from 09.18.2009 ~ 12.31.2010 ( Except Monday ). 

Actually on September still have a long way to go; so, hope for those who like Drum Cat be patient. Drum Cat's performance comprises of 5 themes: Sexy, Speedy, Funny, Powerful and Wild. A far cry from traditional drumming, the performance focuses on a modernization of rhythm: combining and reinventing rock, jazz, techno and Latin rhythms into a unique blend of sound. Instead of a basic simple beat, audiences will be floored by the complex, powerful rhythms that pound forth along with the accompanying background soundtrack. Sounds Fantastic,right?
