recently as a gift, i was treated to go to the nike store to custom design my own shoes. ok, i didn't actually custom design the kicks - the shoes were already designed by someone else. ...i just chose colors to my liking to the blank shoe pallet.
yeah... it says 'mungmung'. i'm lame
as you can see, i didn't go buckwild w/ too many colors. didn't want it to be tacky, and wanted to be able to wear these as much as i can forever and ever
in fact, this was inspired by the vintage korean cartoon robot taekwon-v, which is a rip off of japan's mazinga-z (aka mazinger z, tranzor z). if you're not familiar with it, taekwon-v was a hugely popular south korean cartoon in the 70s and 80s about a robot that fought off japanese imperialists and north korean communists. yes - awesomely hilarious today, but true!
then as i was typing this xanga entry and googling for images, i found out that...
korea is making a robot taekwon-v movie!!! it's scheduled for a 2009 release! check out this clip below - the computer graphics actually look pretty wicked!
no matter how bad it will be, we can already establish that it's going to be much much better than the crappy transformers movie, since that couldn't possibly be any worse. oh, except for the chick in it
