Seoul - Post Report Question and Answers
Recommended movies/DVDs related to this city:
kdramas, kpop...not informative but very popular and gives you a starting base for chatting up people! The internet is a better resource than any book or DVD. I recommend 'escape from camp 14' and Chang-rae Lee's "The Surrendered" for a good background on the history of this country. Visit the War Memorial Museum in Yongsan when you get here too... - Feb 2016
Korean TV and film you can see on Netflix will never ever be an objective view of daily life here, same way U.S. reality TV can't substitute either. But they will give you a glimpse of how things look and sound. - Sep 2013
Shikgaek (Gourmet)- The story of a restaurant, two brothers, and how to be the best chef. Makes many cultural and historical references and shows scenery from around Korea. Alone in Love - A drama about a divorced coupleThe Man Who Can't Marry - A drama/comedy that takes a look at the life of an unmarried 40 year-old man. - Jan 2011
