North Korea’s enigmatic leader Kim Jong-il is dead because of heart attack
after succeeding his father 17 years ago, captained his poor, closed nation
and antagonized its enemies. A tearful broadcaster reported that Kim died
due to “overwork” after “dedicating his life to the people.”

Last December 4th, Indonesian and European street artists united to paint
on one wall in Jakarta area. Artists like Lazoo, Kongo, Besok, Kims, Darbotz,
Nsane5, Hest1, Older, Netic, Shake, Koma, Tutu and Wormo joined the force
and beat the unbearable sunny day for the love of graffiti. When I looked
at the photos link shared by Krezt97, I had to laugh..but if you check
the before and after photos, you know what I mean!
BEFORE
AFTER
It looks like the photos are in reverse order, right? But it is like this.
Explained by Krezt97, after 4 days when he passed by the same wall,
the whole wall is buffed and later he found out it was for a brand’s
promotional purpose. I feel really sorry for them.
I know there are many Asian are crazy about LV (Louis Vuitton), but this
guy with the monogram logo is too extreme.

OK, I thought the Japanese has the most creative ideas in Asia, however,
after seeing the below picture from India, it changes my mind unintentionally.
Perhaps most of you know that New Delhi is a city hampered continuously
by blackouts and power cuts, so to avoid disappointing the legions of kids
who come to ride their rusty contraption, the carnival workers thought
they’d take matters into their own legs.
Does it really work? A video from YouTube can tell you.
Christmas is coming soon, if my German friends who are currently
staying in India and missing their German Christmas market and carnival,
perhaps they would find surprise and another kind of fun in New Delhi.

Last week I spent 5 days in Helsinki, Finland, was visiting my friends
and hoping to experience the darkness there. So when I arrived at
the afternoon, I could feel it straight away.
My homie Trama from FTC (Fuck The Cops) who started writing in 1986,
came to pick up and we headed back to his apartment, after unloading my luggage,
the Finnish graffiti history tutorial started. Trama showed me a book that
just released a week ago which is about the Zero Tolerance project against graffiti
in Finland. The book idea is originated with Mikael Brunila, Kukka Ranta
and Eetu Viren. There are lots of details and data that you would have no clue
how they can get them.
The book is mainly driven by text which I like the idea very much as it is
different from most of the graffiti book. There is only very few images
but they are good enough to show you how bad the project is.

North Korea may not sound like the ideal cruise destination. However,
the secretive state has branched into the more luxurious end of the tourist
spectrum with its first cruise. Around 130 passengers arrived few months
ago at North Korea’s Mount Kumgang, just north of the South Korean border,
from the northeastern port city of Rajin.
About 500 North Koreans lined up with military precision at the Rason port
for a red carpet send-off, waving small flags and plastic flowers while revolutionary
marches such as “Marshal Rides a White Horse” blared over the loudspeakers.

If you dislike the sashimi and feel they are not fresh enough in general
Japanese restaurant. This new restaurant perhaps can fulfill you.
Happy Halloween everyone : ) I wonder if your country would celebrate
this Festival in general. Commonly people do activities such as trick-or-treating,
attending costume parties, carving jack-o’-lanterns, bonfires, apple bobbing,
visiting haunted attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories, and watching
horror films. So here I want to show you a Japanese ghost prank which is
not really scary at all but pretty funny.
At the beginning of this year I went to Barcelona and visit MTN family and
the Museu de la Xocolata (Chocolate Museum) there. I was impressed by
the artists or the chefs who have so much passion or patient to create those
chocolate sculptures. Luckily the artworks could be last for long.
However, the 23-year-old Keisuke Yamada who has created the below
banana sculptures, he has no room for slip-ups. He has to complete
each piece in about half an hour before the bananas start to rot.
