Jung II-woo in China Part 2

 

2018년 3월 31일  (March 31, 2018)

Happy Easter!

I had always wanted to do this!  Two things actually:  1) I discovered these bunnies drawn by Jung II-woo and had always wanted to animate them. 2) I had always wanted to make a recording of myself drawing.  So.. I combined them both! This is a sort of Drawn-Animated Easter Card!  The drawing and coloring took three hours. With time lapse it became about 5 minutes!  It was so fun! and coming up with the contraption to be able to use my phone to record was fun too!  Let’s just say it involved a lot of cardboard boxes!

Here are again Jung II-woo’s bunnies.  I think in a way Jung II-woo may have portrayed himself as a bunny as he is a rabbit in the Chinese Zodiac.

I think this last one is this bunny from the drama “You are beautiful.”  It’s like a pig-rabbit…  he wrote on it:  돼지요?   Pig?

Ok, now onto our favorite bunny’s history!  He is one hot bunny…  you know why? Because he is a “fire” rabbit!  ^ ^

Jung II-woo had various interviews when he travelled to China.  He had two interviews for Sina, one that was really great for Fans, was one where he answered questions live on Weibo!

WITAT


Today I woke up around 5:30 AM to the light of a full moon.  Annoyed, as it is the one day I can sleep late,  I got up to fix the blinds. As I looked at the moon… I was in awe of how big and gorgeous it looked. I wondered if it was a full moon so I looked it up and…  I discovered, that it was not just an average full moon.  It’s what is called a “Blue Moon.”  It happens about every two years, where two full moons fall on the same month.  But this year is really special as with this one we’ve had two blue moons!  This is rare and the next time it happens, it will be in 2037!  So I guess I am glad the moon woke me up!  That’s where the expression “Once in a blue moon”  comes from!  Meaning… very rarely.  I had no idea!!!

This is a photo of the “Blue Moon” I saw…sadly my phone could not keep up with the brightness of the moon!

So in it’s honor these are some of my favorite moon related music… (I used “Clair de Lune” of Debussy in the Easter video, that’s my moon music favorite of favorites! )

En Español:

Do you have a favorite moon song in your country?  Could you email its name or even better a YouTube link to me at kdrama.fan13@gmail.com?  I’d love to hear it!

The is the song that Jung II-woo sang a bit of in China’s Hunan TV show  “The Moon Represents My Heart”  (Made famous recently by Leslie Cheung.  Written by Sun Yi (孫儀) and the music was composed by Weng Ching-hsi (翁清溪).

 

And these moon related songs are from Dramas the Jung II-woo has been in:

 

You are still here?  OK then… a bonus of the moon kind!
