Korean Vocab #7: Dream High Tells Us This!

Yes, this round of Korean Vocab was inspired by Dream High K-drama, and season 2 is coming out very soon! Sorry that I put a halt to Super Junior's series! I just feel that since the hype of Dream High 2  is coming back soon, I should celebrate it with this!

Today's Korean Vocab:
실패는 성공의 어머니 shil-pae-neun seong-gong-eui eo-meo-ni : Failure is The Mother Of Success

Breaking It Down:
실패 shil-pae: Failure. It comes from the Chinese word 失败
성공 seong-gong: Success. It comes from the Chinese word 成功
의 eui: 's / of
어머니 eo-meo-ni: Mother.

When To Use It:
Hmmm..when you fear failure? Cheer yourself up with this!

Other Tips:
의 eui
This actually has the same meaning with  's!
One word I really love to use because if you know a person and an object you can make simple phrases!
Eg:
택켠의 여자친구 taecyeon (2PM's member) eui yeo-ja-chin-gu:  Taecyeon's girlfriend
수지의 남자친구 suzy (Miss A's member) eui nam-ja-chin-gu: Suzy's boyfriend
나의 친구 na-eui chin-gu: me's friend -> My friend
오빠의 가방 op-pa-eui ka-bang: Brother's bag
선생님의 안경 seon-saeng-nim-eui an-gyeong: Teacher's glasses
사람의 사랑 sa-ram-eui sa-rang: People's love

Her Korean Things Says:
I really like the storyline of Dream High 1, somewhat unpredictable yet meaningful; good choice of songs too and the cast are really great performers at such a young age. I like the message the drama brought to us: To Dream High. If you've watched it, you would realise that the casts all went through certain failures at some point of time and that pushed them to strive further to achieve success!
