The year 2011. Looking back at the events that happened in 2011:

The Tohoku earthquake and tsunami.

The launch of the Galaxy S2.

The death of Steve Jobs.

Movies like 'War of the Arrows', 'Sunny', and 'Punch' were released.

Dramas like 'Dream High', 'The Greatest Love', and 'Deep Rooted Tree' aired.


And coincidentally, it was also the year those two bastards Bin Laden and Kim Jong-il kicked the bucket.
