"Maya, students here, in Korea, study really really hard..."
"Every day? Every year?" I cut it.
"Yes, every day, every year. How about students in your country?"
After 15 seconds thinking, I replied,
"Students in Indonesia? We study only in our final year."

ReplyDeleteOra ding. Mbak/mas seko Seoul sampeyan niku didobosi kalihan Maya. Kakean student Indonesia isin nek ketok sinau sregep mergane ndak ndarani bodo njur kudu sinau sak ben dino.
Indonesian students seem to be proud if someone else knows that the students study only for one night and do well on the exam. But, in the fact they study harder than it seems. It is such a chicanery that they do it for making their rivals don't struggle as hard as they do.
