LEGENDARY STORY OF THE FAIRY PRINCESS OF LEDANG MOUNTAIN

According to the 'Sejarah Melayu', Sultan Mansur once declared to his court that he desired to have a wife who shall surpass the wife of any prince in the world. When his ministers reminded him that he was already married to a princess of China, and a princess of Java, the vain Sultan said: " For one prince to marry the daughter of another prince-even other Rajas do that. What I desire is a bride such as no other Raja possesses: that is the girl we wish to marry. We desire to ask for the hand of the fairy princess of Ledang Mountain.

Johor traditional folklore says the fairy princess was married to the legendary Malay seafarer, Nakhoda (Admiral) Ragam. While they were sailing in his boat somewhere off Melaka, Nakhoda Ragam one day playfully tickled his wife's ribs while she was sewing and, in uncontrollable reaction, the princess inadvertently stabbed her immortal husband in the chest with the needle (accidentally it is the weaknesses of his immortal), killing him. The princess returned to her home on Ledang Mountain and vowed never to set eyes on another man.

Sultan Mansur immediately dispatched his finest warrior, the now-elderly Hang Tuah, to Ledang Mountain, together with other captains such as Sang Setia, and Tun Mamat. As they ascended the mountain, they were struck by a strong wind and could climb no further. Tun Mamat bade Hang Tuah, and the others to stay, while he and two or three other men traveled on. Tun Mamat climbed further, pass thickets of singing bamboo and reached a point where the "clouds seemed so close as to be within reach." He finally came upon a beautiful garden, where he found four women and he told them of his quest to find the fairy princess and presented the Sultan's marriage proposal. One of the women, Dang Raya Rani, said she was the Guardian of the Fairy Princess and would tell the princess of the Sultan's wish. After saying this, all the women vanished in thin air.

Later that night, appeared an old woman, bent-double with age, who told Tun Mamat that if the Raja of Melaka desire the princess, let him make for her a bridge of gold, and a bridge of silver from Melaka to Ledang Mountain.

" And for a betrothal gift let there be  seven trays of mosquito hearts; seven trays of the heart of mites; a vat of water from dried areca nuts; a vat of the tears of virgin maidens; a cup of Raja's blood; and a cup of his son's blood."

On hearing the impossible conditions set by the princess for her dowry, Hang Tuah feels his promise to the Sultan cannot be fulfilled and vows not to return to Melaka in shame. He throw his kris into Duyung River in Melaka, and descends into the river's depths, vowing that Hang Tuah will only ever step on Melaka soil when the kris floats upon the river surface.

The Sultan however agrees to the Princess's demands and cruelly oppresses the people of Melaka in his quest for the gold and silver needed for the bridge. Wracked with madness, he draws his kris to kill his son for the cup of blood required but, as he is about to plunge the blade, the Princess magically appears and swears that she will never marry a man who is so weak and cruel as to oppress his people and murder his own son.

And here the enchanted princess remains forever immortal and here she lives to this day by her magic arts.

DREAM HIGH KOREAN DRAMA

Part 1
Once upon a time, in one particular high school, lived one particular girl student. Let's call her Suzy. Not only that she got the looks, she also had the wealth and singing talent and lots of antis. All things other girls could only imagine.

The thing is, Suzy's bloody cold and heartless. She always thought she deserved all those luxuries. She actually took it all for granted. Not a very noble girl, our girl.

Until one day, the world turned against her. Or so she thought. The dad went bankrupt, and she abruptly thrown into one lousy lifestyle, but managed to seal it from others. Her fanatic girl admirers, mostly. She acted and talked like life still going on normal.

At some point, she had to face the fact that dad's bankruptcy needs to be settled, and she needs to help the dad to solve the problem. Since the only talent she got is singing, the only thing possible was for her to get into the art school that will somehow boost her career. Fast.

Alas, fate decided the other way around. Life seems to have some sense of humor on this particular girl, since she got rejected at the audition of the so-called-famous-art-school. Hello? This girl with abundant talent of singing? Ha! That hurt her dignity. A lot. Especially since her plain-and-nerdy-faithful-admirer got into that school, easily.

One slap to her pride didn't turn our girl into one goody-two-shoes girl. No. She still possess that arrogant look and high level of vanity. Tsk tsk. Not a fast learner girl, our girl.

Then how? How can we turn this egotism girl into one lovable character? Fate decided to give her two companions. Hm, not one but two. Too much, no?

Luckily, she got that one of those rare second-chances of getting into that art school, and there she met two VERY different male students. Let's call them Jin and Sam.

Things doesn't go smoothly for Suzy, because immediately for her sole attitude, she's placed into worst-of-the-worst classroom by the teachers. Let's call the class... Misfit Mafia.

----

Part 2
Jin, our foreman student, at one quick glance, seems to be a typical-if-not-cliche kind of guy. He is the baddest of all bad boys. The one you'll always find in every school. A loner, rebellious and ignorant student, but still has one good trait. Either the look, the brain or the talent. In this case, he possessed two of the three.

Jin always thinks of Suzy as one snotty girl, really-really need to be smacked on the head for her lousy attitude. Same goes for her, but not as passionate. As mentioned earlier, Suzy is a pretty heartless (and passionless) kind of girl.

Despite their annoyance of each other, the two shares one similar trait. They're both stubborn and gain high dose of pride. Match made in heaven, you say?

In real life, Jin is a son of a wealthy politician. He got his life mapped by daddy by the time he was born into the world. Get into good school, obtain good grades, work in politics and be a successful man.

However, things didn't go that smooth for the daddy. Jin happened to be one talented dancer and entertainer, so naturally he chose that art school for two reasons. One, cause he really enjoys dancing, and two, he's a bit sick of his daddy-interference with his life.

Given his temper, Jin nearly got rejected in the audition. Yet, somehow he's also being given the rare-second-chance of school-admission (maybe because he threw tantrum for the greater good at the audition and the school-director happened to see through his aggressive appearance). Anyway, naturally he got placed into that Misfit Mafia class, too.

Part 3

Sam is a country boy, not a city boy. He's lack of that sophisticated look and attitude, and mostly he's just one simple straightforward guy. Okay, scratch that. He's totally naive and adorable. If he likes you, he'll say he likes you. Just like that. No drama whatsoever.

Given the rural background, he also had the typical rural history. He is an abandon son of those non-responsible-men who left his pregnant wife to pursue career as singer in the big city.

Sam loves his mom (who's as simple and straightforward as he is) so much, he hides the fact that he could actually sing very well. As a matter of fact, he is one child prodigy, who can catch the tune and rhyme so fast you'll be picking your jaw off the floor every time you see Sam in action. That's how good he is.

Suzy met Sam in her way of obtaining that rare-second-chance of getting into the art school. You see, Sam is hand-picked by the school director to enter the art school. But given the fact that Sam lives in rural area, he will not aware that there's an opening in that art school.

This is where Suzy played her part. For her to be able to be admitted into the art-school (that and many other reasons), she needs to convince Sam to go with her to the art-school.

There, when he met Suzy for the very first time, he practically fell for her. Hahahaha. Or at least, the manipulative side of her, since she's not normally bubbly and cheerful. All fake, for the sake of greater good.

In the end, Sam knew Suzy is a total fake, and a bloody self-centered girl that she is. That, however, didn't erase his infatuation for the girl. Have no idea why. Maybe love at first sight does exist.

Anyway, eventually Sam agreed to enter the art-school. Unfortunately, having the so-called-rare-second-chance really has it perks. Sam entered the Misfit Mafia class since the teachers there decided that one who didn't do the audition needs to prove oneself.

Part 4

IU is a girl with beautiful voice and beautiful heart and beautiful personality. She is everything an artist could hope for. A full package. The thing is, the outer look is not that impressive.

She is one major heavy weight girl. And in that entertainment industry, look is everything. Or at the very least, every one but her thinks like that. She's absolutely okay with the way she looks, but apparently the world doesn't hold the same judgment.

Passing the audition to the art school is an easy matter, cause she got the voice material. Getting through with how her looks is whole different thing. Teachers there agrees that she needs to workout her appearance.

Alas, she didn't achieve the target. That's how she got herself into the Misfit Mafia class.

---

Part 5

Jason is one transferred student from abroad. Not transferred-transferred, but he was raised abroad before high school. Every school got this type of guy also. A popular, humble and talented student. He spread his charms to everyone, since being raised in the abroad only meant one thing for him, which is to treat everyone as equal.

That's why, he didn't seem mind at all when the heaviest girl in school had crush on him. IU practically bombarded him with secret gifts and swoon over him every time he passed by. That kind of silly-head-over-heels-crush you've experienced in high school.

He thinks of IU as one interesting friend, whom he can ask for karaoke night at anytime AND despite her appearance, he really loves her voice. That's one major adorable factor from this guy.

As a matter of fact, this two has been destined together right from the start. You will never miss the chance to see cutie-awkwardness triggered by IU's crush to Jason. And since Jason is an over-the-top cool-but-chipmunk-ey person, they both look adorable. Totally.

---

Part 6

Becky is formerly known as the best friend of Suzy and her greatest admirer. She cares about Suzy a lot and practically worshiped the land Suzy just walked by. She nearly lost her self-identity in order to match everything Suzy did. The hairstyle, the wardrobe, the bags, the shoes, everything.

Things turn around 180 degrees for this lovely girl at the art school audition. Suzy was enraged since she didn't make it while Becky actually got admitted. How come? They're both performing a duet, nonetheless. Suzy spat hatred words towards her, in front of every jury at that audition, practically shattered her dreamy-world into pieces.

That's how Becky changed. She is no longer the innocent girl like everyone used to know. She grew hatred for Suzy and highly annoyed knowing that Suzy was admitted to the art-school anyway. She thrived for being the best at school, at stage performance, and in everyone's eyes. Using cheapskate trick, that line has already been crossed. That's how the rival begin. Best friend to become the worst enemy plot line.

And oh yeah, she fell for Jin.

I love these story lines. I love I love I love the base plot for everyone. And ultimately, I adore the loser-to-winner stories. Argh!

儿呀，娘昨天去菜市场，       


想拣起菜贩卖剩的菜叶，       


和一个空空的水果箱。       


不小心碰脏了一个姑娘的花衣裳，       


那个姑娘回过头，       


狠狠地说：       


“狗东西，慌什么慌？”。       


听到这句话，娘好高兴。       


因为，儿呀，娘好想做你家的一条狗。





儿呀，娘好想做你家的一条狗。

下雨的时候，       


和你爹望着房顶       


——心里直发慌。  





儿呀，娘好想做你家的一条狗。       


你很少打电话，       


你说，电话费贵呦！       


你还要省钱为你家的狗狗买狗粮。

你娘什么事也都健忘。       


天天看着你的照片想：       


儿呀，娘什么时候也能吃上那香喷喷的狗粮。       





儿呀，娘好想做你家的一条狗。       


天冷了，       


你为狗铺个温暖的窝，       


不忘记给它补充营养       


还给它买了一件漂亮的花衣裳。       


你爹糊涂了，       


炖白菜时，       


总是放了盐来又放糖。       


还总唠叨着，       


说我老忘记了给他补补       


——他那件旧衣裳。       








儿呀，娘好想做你家的一条狗。  





晚上，你牵着狗去散步。       


它摇着尾巴，你晃着脑袋       


——真是好风光！

娘背不动他，       


三更半夜，       


幸亏邻居把他抬上床。       


听说，有个女人踩死一条狗，       


还把一只猫踩出了肚肠。
