(입트영) Black Day in Korea.....13.4.12

Black Day in Korea
It’s April 14th. You don’t have a significant other and Valentine’s and White Day sucked.
What do you do? Celebrated Black Day of course! Black Day is meant for all the lonely hearts. You commiserate with your fellow singles by eating jajangmyeon and wearing dark clothes. The Black jajangmyeon signifies how depressing it can be without a mate. But now Black Day can be a way to find companionship. There are Black Day event like speed dating and jajangmyeon eating contests. Who knows? Maybe you can find your next love with a stuffed mouth of noodles! Things may look a lot different next year.

Pattern Practice
He’s bringing his significant other to the party
I don’t have a significant other
Is this your significant other?

This song is for all the lonely hearts
Don’t make fun of the lonely hearts

Would you like to commiserate with me and a bottle of wine?
We must get together to commiserate your loss
I commiserated with him over the loss of his dog

This ring signifies my love for you
Marriage signifies commitment and love
The flower signifies purity and health

Dogs are a great way to find companionship
I need some companionship in my life
Don’t you want some companionship when you get older?

The situation will look a lot different tomorrow
This room looks a lot different in the morning

Konglish of the week
Sang-won! Sang-won!
Why? Why you called me?
Well, when somebody calls your name, you should say “What?”
Oh, I got it. Call my name again!
