Pasar baru




Ini Pasar Baru coy. Yup, this market is called Pasar Baru where you can find goods in a reasonable price of course that if you know how to bargain. If you are foreigner, you need to bring along your Indonesian friends who know how to bargain or else…. Mostly those buyers who come here are retailers. They buy the goods to be sold again. But not all of them are merchants. Some of them are housewives, students or tourists. If you don’t feel satisfied with the price at one vendor, you can just walk away and search for the other vendor who will give you the same goods but with cheap price. It’s a matter of feet here. Why did I say that? It’s because you have to do the walking a lot. You have to move from one vendor to another. If you are not a real shopper, you will get so bored and get cranky and leave right away or just buy the goods and forget about the price. That’s me. I am not a real shopper, so I always bring a friend of mine who is really good in bargaining. Women’s skill some said. But I don’t own that. I forgot to tell that you can also shop fabric here.
Need some stuff at cheap price, just go to Pasar Baru and not to forget to bring a friend who knows how to bargain if you don’t have the skill. Okay, c ya!

프라이팬 놀이/Frying Pan Game/BTS

Playing Frying Pan Game/BTS We played a new game called Frying pan game (프라이팬 놀이) with our Korean guests in our Korean Class. It was fun. It’s like catching the mouse game. We learn the Korean numbers in the same time.  Say, if your friend mentions your name and the number, you have to mention your name according to the number he/she mentions previously.  For example, if your friend says "Dana dul (2)", so you have to say your name twice, "Dana...Dana" and so on and so on. If you make a mistake, well, you get the punishment. The type of the punishment depends on the agreement of the players. They are many types, trust me. Just choose one.  This game was played on one of the TV programs in Korea hosted by Kang Ho Dong (강 호 동), Hye Ryong said. 재미 있네요. 우리 애들이 놀이를 좋아해요.  But hey! BTS too played this game on one of their TV shows.  You can check out the video  here  So far, we have learned many Korean games. Mostly we got...

Yutnori

Yutnori Apa itu Yutnori ? Hmmm... pernah dengar yutnori (dibaca: yunnori)? kata ini bukan berasal dari bahasa Jawa tapi bahasa Korea. Yutnori adalah nama salah satu permainan tradisional Korea.  Permainan ini biasa dimainkan secara beregu ketika acara tahun baru Korea yang disebut juga 설날 (sollal) . Tahun baru biasanya menjadi ajang kumpul seluruh anggota keluarga. Selain makan Tteokguk , mereka biasanya memainkan Yutnori . Ini penampakan Yutnori , ada papan permainan dan dadunya. Yang unik, dadunya tidak bentuk kotak seperti kebanyakan dadu pada umumnya tapi berbentuk batangan. Hal lain yang membedakan dadu  yutnori  dari dadu pada umumnya adalah tidak ada bentuk titik-titik yang melambangkan angka. Yang ada itu tulisan  도  (Do),  개  (Gae),  걸  (Gul), dan  윷  (Mo) .   Eh, permainan ini pernah muncul disalah satu drama Korea yang dulu nge-hits banget dulu, Princess Hours. Kalau tidak salah di ep...

Coba beberapa resep tetep tak sukses. Lalu aku tengok resep sodara tuanya Bungeoppang , Taiyaki . Ceritanya dulu orang Jepang yang memperkenalkan Taiyaki ke Korea saat jaman pendudukan mereka dulu.
