We answer some questions! And the question we get asked the most…. hehe.
Month: June 2014 (Page 4 of 6)
This month is going to be really busy so there will probably be more of these quick comics. My usual comics can take hours to do but these ones can be done in 10 minutes. Sorry, you’ll have to put up with more of these for a while.
So I’ve started painting again! For those that don’t know I used to work as an artist and paint, mostly realism and mostly landscapes. I gave it up years ago. When I wanted to do something creative again I turned to blogging and comics and forced myself to learn how to draw digitally. That was pretty hard but I got used to it. Now I’m going back to painting I’m realising just how useful it is to be able to undo! So now I’m trying to get used to traditional art again. I’m continuing making comics almost every day, I’ll just be making other artworks as well.
Another great advantage of digital art however, is that we can easily make lots of prints! We are slowly working towards having an online store and probably the first thing available to buy will be signed prints of comics. When we did the giveaway, where the prizes were signed comics, a lot of people expressed interest in being able to buy prints of comics. I have hundreds and hundreds of comics so we’ll need to figure out which are the most popular ones and which ones people want to buy. So please let us know in the comment section! Which ones are your favourite?
This is VERY quick little comic today because got a bunch of stuff we’ve gotta do.
He sure knows how to ruin a mood! Shorts pulled up to the crotch area. What a lady killer!
안녕하세요. 이전에 호주 워킹홀리데이에 관한 비디오를 만들다가 거의 한달만에 다시 만들었네요. 아무래도 이야기를 끝마치는게 맞는것 같아서 다시 만들었어요. 앞으로 한개에서 두개정도 First 호주 워킹홀리데이 이야기 끝내고 다른 비디오도 만들도록 할께요.
잘봐주시고, 혹시 궁금한신거나 비디오로 보고 싶은것들 있으시면

That moment where I don’t know if he is going to scold me or go along with my dumb joke.
On the weekend I noticed a lot of farm work was being done. There were a lot more people in the fields and I soon discovered that in order for the onion crops to be harvested family, friends and other workers are called in to help. We rode our bikes around and filmed some of the onion harvesting and some other farm work being done. We didn’t want to shove the camera in people’s faces so we mostly filmed at a distance.
Things that have also changed since our last countryside video: the concrete channels besides the fields have been cleaned out and now flow with water, wheat has been harvested and rice is now being planted in those fields, strawberry plants are left to die, potatoes are in season and being harvested, chilli plants are being grown, and kiwifruits are getting bigger but not full size yet.
I think I’ve mentioned mulgwishin before, which are water ghosts, but gwishin (귀신) in general tend to usually be female ghosts wearing the white funeral clothes with long dark hair. When you become more emerged in Korean culture you start to hear the word a lot more and realise how scary they are for people. I was just saying the word “fishing” but my husband thought I had said “gwishin”. Slightly worrying because it was late in the day and where we live is perfect habitat for gwishins! We live in an old village full of old houses and abandoned falling down houses. We also live near a school. Schools feature heavily in gwishin folklore because schools are so creepy at night and are all very similar looking across Korea. If I see a school in a Korean horror movie I know that at some point I need to walk past the school here at night, so it’s probably best not to watch those types of movies.
When we cut through the school grounds I usually salute the statue of Admiral Yi (important figure in Korean history) just to be on his good side. Many schools have a statue of him and it’s said that he gets down from his pedestal and walks around the school grounds at night. We figure that if a gwishin in the school is coming after us, Admiral Yi can come save us. Of course we don’t really have a strong belief in ghosts and all that, but it’s funny how folklore can affect the little things you do day to day.
