i'm in a Korean newspaper!!

Hallyu_1

Wow the interview piece was finally sent to us! i must say we look nice in the pic. heheh. hmm it was published in Segye Ilbo on 1/2/06. i was anticipating this article, mentang2lah 1st interview by an international newspaper. nak tau apa persepsi orang Korea about the legions of K-ent fans in Malaysia... tapi... @_@ apebende yg dia tulis ha? *sigh* let me do a Babel on it first.

from the red markings i made on this capped excerpt, it roughly says:

1. The Hallyu (situation) recently has Southeast Asia youths wildly excited for our (the Korean) TV drama and pop music, and are counting on visiting Korea. But how does this Islamic nation, with an entirely different cultural background, accept Hallyu? etc etc.. Collected data from among locals especially Muslims.

2. Kuala Lumpur, Petronas Twin Tower (KLCC) - Muslim women having a commemoration photograph session after a Hallyu fanclub meeting.. etc. Southeast Asia youths.
-- (actually the journalist ahjuhssi asked to take picture with us after interview. Fanclub meeting?! Kpop Kingdom is not a fanclub ~_~)

3. Malaysia advances over boundary gates

4. Winter. yada yada yada.. fan club.. Korean winter scenery. whuh?

gosh. we're unofficially representatives of Malaysians + Muslims to the Koreans now! ah.. slowly but surely, they're noticing our country, and us fans. our main objective further on will be to cucuk2 these ahjusshis to bring more Korean actors and singers here. NEXT STOP, a KPop concert perhaps?
