Here you are calling f() with one string argument.

Here you are calling KK.f() with two arguments (an implicit KK instance and
the explicit "Hello" string).

Both calls are channeled through wrapper(t) which expects exactly one
parameter.

Change wrapper() to accept an arbitrary number of arguments:

           def wrapper(*args):

                   func(*args)
