[QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Narmerthoth: [qb] Man, I've become addicted to Korean culture. Having meet many Koreans in New York, Washington DC, Durham, NC, and Baltimore, MD, I've found that they and African Americans have much in common. In Washington, there is a large Korean community and they embrace African American culture, even cooking and eating many African American dishes like Fried Chicken, Chitterlings, Collared greens and cornbread, and they cook them as well and sometimes better than black folk. They say they like it and do it become they are Soul brothers. LOL. Recently, I'm hooked on their TV series depicting Korean, Chinese and Japanese history. Unlike Europeans, Koreans show their history raw, the good and bad. One show I'm particularly addicted to is; The Kingdom of The Winds The drama about the life of Jumong's grandson, Moo Hyul, who was born with a curse to kill his parent, siblings, son and destroy Goguryeo. Moo Hyul, who later became Daemusin. Its background is Korean history. The story unfolds, centering on the third king of Kogooryeo, "Daemooshin," who intended to expand his country beyond the Booyeo, Nakrang and Chinese Han Empire, and for his son Hodong. The story may develop through wars with neighboring countries and in its characters' adventures. But Land of the Wind shows their sadness and agony in epic proportions, as well. It's strange that the characters in the 2009 series don't look anything like those shown above, Perhaps it's TV make-up, darkening the actors, but these Epics always show the Korean males, especially the ruling king as dark skinned while the females are lighter. The script is very powerful with some of the most eloquent language I've even seen used in a movie and definitely a TV series. Below, king of Kogooryeo, Yuri is shown on horseback.

I see that they have started subs on youtube so I will check them out. [/QB][/QUOTE]
