I had no idea that Pedro Leon (of Real Madrid 'fame') and Luis Leon Sanchez (a top, top, top, top, top, top cyclist, as Jamie Redknapp would say) were related! I was playing FM when I noticed that Pedro's full name is Pedro Leon Sanchez Gil, and I instantly thought of Luis. A google search confirmed that they are brothers, Luis the elder by 3 years.

Luis obviously inherited the better sporting genes than his brother, he's world class in his sport while Pedro is at best a good player.

@capriccioso,

HI CAP! Here's the translation I promised:

Except I'm obviously not going to do the whole thing. You have Google Translate for that. I'll just give you just a gist of what's going on.

First of all, 오빠 [Oppa] is a word girls use to address either their older brothers or other men who are slightly older than them. Also, girls will often use this word to flirt with guys, so if a Korean girl calls you this, it's could be an indication that she's ready to go down on you.

강남 [Gangnam] is a region in Seoul (south to the river that runs through the city) where all the filthy rich people live. It's sort of like Beverly Hills in California if that helps. Small apartment rooms cost around $1.5m there. By contrast, in the west side of Vancouver, which is probably one of the most expensive cities in North America, you can get a decent house with maybe a backyard and a garage for the same price or even less. A lot of the things in the video are typical of rich old people in Korea. Some obvious ones include the sunglasses, clothing, and the gelled up hair, etc.

One of the things in the video you probably won't get is the part where the fat guys with tattoos are sitting together in a room naked. This is something I don't quite understand, but for some reason, a lot of Korean people like to go to public bathrooms, I mean literally, publicbathrooms so they can wash and scrub themselves while being surrounded by hundreds of dicks all hanging out. The worst, or perhaps the best part, is that sometimes, moms take their sons (if they're under 4-ish) to these things. To the women's room, of course. Anyway, these public bathing places also have rooms like the one in the video where people just sit and sweat because the temperature is up over 40 degrees if I'm not wrong. Again, something that doesn't make any sense to me. Some people actually die in these things.

Another thing I should probably explain is the part filmed in a tour bus. What you see in the video is the reality of the infamous Asian tourism. A lot of the times, passengers get drunk on the bus and sing and dance to loud music. You are so wrong if you think Asians go on tours just to take pictures

Anyways, let's do a little more translations. A couple words you hear a lot are 여자 ['yea' as in 'yearn' followed by jah] - meaning a female or a woman - and 사나이 [sah nah ee] - meaning a guy. I'm not going to go over all of the things in the verses, but basically, all of the expressions used are great for flirting. Each line ending with 여자 is a compliment any girl will appreciate and each line ending with 사나이 shows how cool a guy you are.

One more thing. At around 2:10 in the video (I think that'd be the bridge), you know, where the blonde (LOL) girl does some pole dancing, they lyric goes like Ah rum da woe sa rang su ro woe, right? That basically means the first bit 아름다워 [Ah rum dah woe] means beautiful and 사랑스러워 [sah rahng su ruh woe] means adorable. So, there you have it. A perfect, guaranteed solution for getting a Korean girl, if that's what you fancy.

Oh, and lastly, one little clarification: unfortunately, you'll never witness pole dancing on public transit in Korea, but you can in Vancouver.

What about the elevator scene?!

And the car park scene with the guy in the brilliant yellow suit and red car?

Elevators are fucking disgusting. I remember the one in my apartment building when I lived there often smelled like piss. I'm guessing it was either little kids or some drunk people who did that, but anyways, it's never a good idea to lie down in an elevator. As for the humping part, I've never seen anything quite like that. Truly vajazzling.

And what about the yellow suit? I thought everyone had one of those?

[Kezza 1,965]

Truly vajazzling

Isn't that when girls bling up their woo-hoo?

I want to find a girlfriend with an English or Irish accent! Southern England though. Such hot accents

[Naked Mole Rat 437]

Isn't that when girls bling up their woo-hoo?

Technically, yes, but it's too cool of a word to be so restricted in its use. It should mean something like "pleasantly surprising" and should be popularized. I can totally imagine people in the near future saying things like, "I am planning a vajazzling birthday party for my mom today," or something like that.

Limp one at that. Upwards curvature.

[Kostas 1,468]

Been a long time since I've seen Kostas around here. Always enjoyed his posts...

Apologies for going AWOL for so long.

I'm moving to another country (hold your horses, for academic purposes) and my life has been pretty frenetic in the past few months. I'm lagging behind my regular foruming but haven't missed a game mostly due to TC

Anyway, since I'll probably be logging from a different IP in a couple of days and I doubt I'll be as active as I was a couple of years ago, I wanted to say I greatly enjoyed reading and taking part in some of the discussions we've had with the regulars of the forum and that I'm still reading most of you on twitter and will gladly follow more.

[capriccioso 2,545]

I take offence to that. Mine has an upward curvature, and I consider myself very well endowed.

Good luck mate, hope you can still find the time to make your much valued contributions here

So... I found some Greek Yoghurt in my fridge.

What, like... does it do? I know I'm supposed to eat it, but what with? What is it's purpose in life? What does it taste like?

[Kezza 1,965]

I didnt say it was a bad thing. Im sure the ladies love the extra-attention it gives.

[francozola 2,040]

YES, you have to transform to whatever format Amazon uses. Tou wont be able to use the cloud storage space they provide though.

Wait until the Ipad Mini comes out, then you decide wich one is better.

Btw, heard from a friend that the Fire sucks, the Fire HD for 199 is a far better option....

Thanks for that. Apple's products are too freaking expensive. I think even the Mini will be $400 or so (our currency) so I really don't want to shell out so much when I already have a iPod Touch for my music/movies etc

I'm mainly looking to get a tablet for reading books and also for studying uses because it would be helpful if I could view my subject's past-year papers (which are in pdf format and each year's paper is over 100 pages because of the long answers so doesn't make sense for me to print them out and carry them around everywhere) to look through during revision time.

I was under the impression that the HD version is not much different from the Kindle Fire... but since there's only a $50 difference if I do end up buying one I'll probably get the HD

If it can read PDF's I'm pretty sure you can transfer pirated books, FZ.

Yeh I was referring more to pirated movies and music
