Maybe they're not konglish exactly tho...
Better a snake's head than a dragon's ass. ('better to rule in hell than suck in heaven.')
My film is cut. ('i had an alcohol-induced blackout.')
It's like cradling the balls of a dead boy. ('It's like flogging a dead horse.') |

I like when Koreans, when they don't want to do something, suck their teeth in and say "I think... it is not possible"
I use this now too when I don't want to do something. |
