For those who are interested , there is a Korean TV Series called "SEOUL 1945" on KBS (try channel 44 though I think this number may vary) every Saturday and Sunday at 8:00 p.m. It is subtitled in English! It's a historical drama about the events surrounding the Japanese occupation, independence, and the Korean War. It traces several characters and their lives, childhood friendship, love, betryal, and their fates marked by political events and their involvements sourrounding the events. Tonight's episode ended with the conflict between the Korean Socialist Party and the American backed what is to be Democratic Party with Rhee Sung Man and Kim Ku. One of the female characters (a famous pianist whose father partnered with Japan to prosper under the Japanese occupation) was trying to befriend Rhee Sung Man to seek revenge on those who she believes killed her father when Korea was liberated from Japan.
This series has been on for a while now so, if you are interested in watching in from beginning, you can find the videos at any Korean video stores. If not, you can start watching and recording next Saturday. It is very entertaining and inforamtive.
