The following important result is established: There exists a weakly complete flat front in hyperbolic 3-space whose induced pair of hyperbolic Gauss maps have images contained in an arbitrary given open disk in the ideal boundary of the hyperbolic 3-space. A problem which is an analogue of the known Calabi-Yau problem in the theory of minimal surfaces is considered. Namely: Is there a bounded holomorphic Legendrian curve immersed in \(\mathbb C^3\) which is complete with respect to the canonical Hermitian metric of \(\mathbb C\)?
