Ashūra

Alright. I'm obsessed with this sculpture. I was planning to write my MD's disses on it, but apparently, I had no supervisor, so I had to change my plans. I see Ashūra even in my dreams.

More... jdrama?


OK, as my obsession is growing, I'm going to post more links to jdrama torrents. First, Smile (2009). I can't actually say anything yes, since today I've just seen first episode. I haven't read the reviews ( I trust only one reviewer, I.^^), but I can be sure that japanese reviews weren't that good. Why? The reason is simple.

Kozine


For everyone interested in Korean culture. The magazine is in Korean and English. So far 8 issues, or I'm blind and I can't find more.
Downloadable, readable.

KBS2 Special - Korean Culture MU links

Yes, I decided to upload MU links to the files I posted on Korean culture.
There will be more, but currently, I'm in the whirlpool of events and have no time for this.

KBS2 Special - Korean Culture new programs


As I promised, this time new files, but I decided not to upload torrent files, but the short programs. Some of you probably have it from DA.

Korean Dictionary

There are very few reliable dictionaries online. Not everyone can afford to buy a good dictionary (usually a good one costs around 100 $/50 £ and up). I found one in pdf format. It was from free domain and under GNU license. It's quite big, has romanized and hangul words. And is very useful. I suggest to print it and bind.

Traditional Culture of Korea

I found a book on traditional culture of our beloved Country of the Morning Calm. Unfortunately, it is entirely in Korean. Deals with: pansori, music, architecture, paintings, history (short outline), ceramics (celadon).
Happy reading^^of over 300 pages.
