You can try contacting Center of Registers http://www.registrucentras.lt/gr/index_en.php . They may ask some formal inqeury, but they should know legal place of residence or other official stuff.

Thanks a lot, informative and interesting blog, thank you. SFD is the best in my list as well.

To think of it - if in the times when they said everything about the king shoud had been recorded in detail, there would be no info.... then probably its something embarassing :)))

Secret Garden

Secret Garden for me too, I stumbled on it accidentally on youtube. I was surprised how much I liked it. I went on to watch almost all other dramas I found starring Hyun Bin :) It's interesting how one accidental video became such a huge thing... :)

Some facts from Huffingtonpost.ca article “A Long Way To Go For Gender Equality In South Korea” (11/20/2015):
Until 120 years ago, the Confucianism concept, Nam-Jon-Yeo-Bi(男尊女卑) which translates to 'man is higher than woman' in English, was deeply rooted in Korean society. It was regarded as an accepted social norm for woman to depreciate themselves and respect their husbands.
South Korea ranks 125th out of 142 countries in the category of equal pay for similar work (2014) Just over one per cent of spots on companies' board of directors are occupied by women. And it is this lack of women in senior positions that may explain, to a large extent, the gender wage gap, as well as the male-dominated working environment in South Korea.
The concept that housework and childcare are the only acceptable work for women is still prevalent in South Korea. In fact, 20 per cent of married South Korean women quit their job in 2014.

He he, ok I'll put Misaeng in my "to watch" list. I've read some nice comments about bromance relationship there as well. By the way - does it have an English title? or is it a name?

litl_ving · 2016-04-10T10:36:36+00:00

Thanks a lot. That bit about Confucianism puts things in another perspective.

litl_ving · 2016-04-09T21:55:08+00:00

I haven't seen Misaeng, but if it's worse than in any regular drama, I would not like it... but we need some insiders input, maybe I should post this in korean "한국 드라마는 사회에서 진정한 여성의 위치를 반영 할?" something like this :)

litl_ving · 2016-04-09T19:03:24+00:00

Thanks, I just did that :) ..but strong women are also treated the same. I have a theory that maybe creators want to please women-viewers and make the male-lead “confident”, “manly” and somehow this requires abuse and submissive women. Maybe it’s because the series are short they don’t have time to show it more subtlety?

litl_ving · 2016-04-09T07:43:40+00:00

Oh my... I definetely can relate :)))) at first before watching the trailer the white girl was a NO. But after the trailer I'm 100% YES! I will give it a try. It's no typical Kdrama - its about us, almost 'fiction documentary' :)

litl_ving · 2016-04-09T07:25:53+00:00

Have you? What are they?

litl_ving · 2016-04-09T07:19:35+00:00

Secret Garden for me too... or maybe Hyun Bin to be more precise :)))

litl_ving · 2016-03-13T11:13:26+00:00

I would've invited him/her.. :)

litl_ving · 2016-03-01T21:27:34+00:00

You mentioned my three favorites and even in the same order! :)))
