Right, so. I met some people

April 29, 2010

First there was Dangoon. He told me he was a holy man *makes doubtful face* That dude was trippin’ losers into joining his “island” that he’s going to “found” in the name of whatever or something. Anyway, yeah lots of people like him. Not to even mention Ahn Chang-Ho (his actual name! we just called him Do-[San] so that we didn’t bust up laughing every time we addressed him). Apparently he always wanted to die young and employ independence to people and a new school system. Can’t blame the guy for trying, but seriously, fix problems here; Don’t just run off to some dudes newly founded island!

Nutty, I know, of course then there’s Won-Yo. Man he’s quiet. Sometimes I’d try to get him more enthusiastic or something by yelling “Yo! Won-Yo!” but it just seemed to annoy him. Someone said something about him being a monk (or maybe used to?) He never approved of Joong (Gun). Probably because Joong Gun  WAS crazy. Changed his last name to Gun and went off planning assassinations. Crazy nut claims he actually did kill someone! “On the run” he always claims when ever Dangoon asks him why he’s here. Man, he almost makes me wanna leave this place. Oh well, there not all crazy. Take Yi L. for example. Smart guy. (gets lots of nicknames for it) Usually he’s quiet and reserved. Don’t bother him in his study though. He takes those philosophy books so seriously. Maybe he’s here just to get away from the world and have peace and quiet. I guess I should ask him if he views the whole place like one big library.

Now we got some mixture of people here, but what group would be complete without the army brat? Yeah *Admiral* Yi Soon-Sin (changed his name for obvious reasons to Choong-Moo, and for love of whales) Ha! He’d make a good attack dog if we needed one. So loyal, so knightly he once asked Danny (Dangoon) if he could call him “king” and do his “bidding.” Seriously, kinda messed up. Although he did build a pretty cool war ship. Basically he just took one of out fishing boats and attached steel plating everywhere until you couldn’t see sunlight from the inside. Called it Kobukson. It still doesn’t float.

Finally we have Tai-Gye (He’s not actually Thai but we (that is, Danny and I) think he was adopted). He tends to avoid us so we don’t know too much about him. He was talking about starting some youth group thing for kids on the island. (Dangoon said “NO!” after finding out he was planning to teach them Neo-Confucianism) Dude, we don’t smoke that crap! He said it was a religion thing so he did get some people to start building a youth group. It was half-way done when we stormed in and decided that you can’t teach that crap around here. Later we convened and discussed what we were gonna do about the half-built structure. We finally decided on keeping it a youth group, but making it one for training infantry and teaching martial arts (Choong-Moo’s suggestion, not mine)

So, yeah, that just about sums it up…
