안녕하세요! --> Hello! I'm Sung-kyu (or Sunggyu) and I have an idea for a Korean-themed residential community. Essentially, I would like to create a sim using both traditional and modern Korean architecture; I am thinking to use the traditional Hanok for residents' homes (see the attached pictures). By no means would this community be exclusive to just Korean people - all would be welcome! Of course, a majority of this idea is reliant on the availability of these types of buildings and materials within the SL marketplace and beyond. I will try to address this issue by hiring on an SL architect... is that what they're called? Anyway, we'll cross that bridge. Right now, all I would like to do is gauge interest in this concept: would you or someone you know be interested in joining a Korean-themed residential community in SL? Feedback and suggestions would be wonderful~

Hello all. I think that I've solved a little mystery today; of how to correctly pronounce the continent name of Jeogeot. And no, its not pronounced like the French car builder Peugeot! And also what Jeogoet actually means! I got my sources from an early map of the SL grid drawn by Jack Linden (2004-2010), titled "Jack's Map O' The Gridde" which I found while nosing around at New Kadath Lighthouse Gallery, which has an extensive museum-quality collection of old and new SL maps exhibited at the lighthouse. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/New Kadath/35/45/23 At the foot of Jack Linden's map is this image, there is the continent we call Jeogeot - which is actually labelled 지구 in Korean. Historically, Jeogeot was also known as "The Korean Continent". 지구 is a Korean word and translates to English as "jigu". 지구 Jigu is roughly pronounced as tzchig-oo. Listen to the translation here: https://translate.google.co.uk/?hl=en-GB&sl=ko&tl=en&text=지구&op=translate According to Google Translate and Wiktionary (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/지구) Jigu means "Earth" (with a capital E, so its a noun). It also means "district", "zone" or "area". I don't speak Korean, so I imagine "jigu" in its Jeogeot context is a mix of all the words and means "an area of ground", or "a strip of earth". Earth as in soil, ground or dirt, so not just literally "planet Earth". Therefore, I'm theorising that "jigu" had been deliberately misspelled into the ficticious English-language name "Jeogeot" by a very creative Linden map maker. He probably changed Jigu's first "jig" syllable into "Jeog", and used a J in place of that very asian "tzch" sound that doesn't really exist in the English language. Similarly, the second "u" syllable became "eot", and adding a silent letter T to its end to make it more "exotic" looking when read, perhaps a bit like the "eot" in Peugeot, the French car manufacturer. Jeogeot is pronounced "tzchig-oo" ! Mystery solved!

I'm speaking mainly of East Asians, in particular Chinese -- the kind you see everyday but rarely in SL. Chinese are not even shown in the grouping of new comer countries though we have been in and participated since the beginning. Some of the most popular companies in the past like DrLife were Chinese owned and created and brought SL to other countries. What happened? Even here in the U. S. where Second Life's company is based, Asians no longer are seen and represented. Many, like me, speak fluent english and those who don't use translators to get by. Many of us who want to be real members compete for the few Asian avatars that are available, others just blend in with the many beautiful white avatars that are available. They can be witch, demon, princess but they still know they are White people playing roles. For the past year I watched to see the new skins that came out. Some were the same faces but darkened to appear like women of color. Most Asians were ignored completely, but when it did appear it was with five other white skins. I see noting wrong with there being five new White skins - don't get me wrong. The Chinese say 'let a thousand flowers bloom". But please also let Asians be in that bouquet also.

Now for long time I was a anime kemono avatar but I’m planning to create a new avatar for a change and because I’m tired always being accuse to be a kid, having an anime avatar. Since, I’m Asian also irl I was planning to create a very good new Asian looking avatar. What I am aiming for, is to look like a Kpop idol, like they look in kpop videos on YouTube or pictures if you search for them. Reason for it is I really love their appearance and I’m a kpop fan. If needed, I could add some pictures of real idols that I’d take as example but I think you good my idea. Now here comes the problem, there so many mesh bodies, heads, skins etc on marketplace and I feel really lost. I heard from some people, Maitreya and Slink are good and also bento has come up. For Slink it was easy to find and seems costs 1250L$ for the others, Maitreya and Bento good endless results. So even more confusing. Also thinking ahead I have to think about clothing and I think I have heard there are body and clothing technology now, wondering if true, so that new clothes kinda automatically fit the body. Maybe it’s called fitmesh. Anyhow, I don’t wanna be trapped with new the body to buy only overpriced clothes made, especially for it but I’m not saying I wanna get a fancy avatar then dress in freebies either. So far from reading description for easy cloth fitting, Slink sounds good but I’m unsure. I haven’t thought much anymore about new avatars for the last 2 years so I feel kinda noobish about it. Also head choice can be tricky to achieve my goal and so on. So basically my goal in few words is: high quality avatar looking like a kpop idol (but doesn’t get the annoying you’re a kid red card in the face), so body and head that goes close to that, and also good quality hair, but still offer a great clothing choice.
