Tamna
The kingdom of Tamna or Tamna guk ruled Jeju Island from ancient times until it was absorbed by the Korean Joseon Dynasty in 1404. This kingdom is also sometimes known as Tangna (탁라), Seomna (섭나), and Tammora (탐모라). All of these names mean "island country".
Legends of founding
There is no historical record of the founding or early history of Tamna. One legend tells that the three divine founders of the country—Ko (고), Yang (양), and Bu (부)—emerged from three holes in the ground in the 24th century BC. These holes, known as the Samseonghyeol (삼성혈), are still preserved in Jeju City.
According to legend, after Yang Ul-la (양을나/良乙那; modern-day 楊乙那) came to Jeju Island, a semi-mythical box washed up on the shore of the island. Yang Ul-la searched in the box and found three women, horses, cows, and agricultural seeds such as rice, corn, grain, millet, barley, and bamboo. From these beginnings, the three men established the kingdom of Tamna. He is regarded as the legendary ancestor of Yang Tang, the founder of the Jeju Yang bon-gwan.

Out Here All Night
by: DamoneSummer's coming too fast
Winter's been here too long
If we keep wasting our days
Pretty soon they'll be gone
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
I've been out here all night
I've been out here all day
With my eyes open wide
Hoping that you will say
Everything is all right
We can be happy too
If you look out for me
The way I looked out for you
People take what they need
Then they tell you, "Get lost"
Kindly leading you on
While they're ripping you off
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
I've been out here all night
I've been out here all day
With my eyes open wide
Hoping that you will say
Everything is all right
We can be happy too
If you look out for me
The way I looked out for you
If I sounded insecure
It's because I wasn't sure
You were really there
I've been out here all night
I've been out here all day
With my eyes open wide
Hoping that you will say
Everything is all right
We can be happy too
If you look out for me
The way I looked out for you
You can stand there all night
You can stand there all day
You can do what you like
It doesn't matter to me
