	Korean alphabet, pronunciation and language
		The Koreans borrowed a huge number of Chinese words, gave Korean readings and/or meanings to some of the Chinese characters and also invented about 150 new characters, most of which are rare or used mainly for personal or place names.
		The Korean alphabet was invented in 1444 and promulgated it in 1446 during the reign of King Sejong (r.1418-1450), the fourth king of the Joseon Dynasty.
		Korean can be written in vertical columns running from top to bottom and right to left, or in horizontal lines running from left to right.

	The age of celadon
		Gray ware similar to that produced by the Chinese Han dynasty, was made in Vietnam at the same time it was produced in China, and by the 6th century Vietnam was producing a celadon-like type of ash-glazed ware of their own.
		The quality of the Korean celadon, according to many experts, both Korean and Chinese, came to surpass that of even the Chinese celadon that it was derived from.
		Vietnam, who had been under Chinese rule, was the third country to adopt, and begin the production of celadon wares during the 13th Century, though their celadon did not possess the rich green colors of the Chinese or Korean products.

	Korean-Chinese Bilingual Code-Switching
		Therefore, with regard to syntactic features, Korean and Chinese have quite different surface word order; while in terms of morphological features, undeniably there is vast gulf in morphoogical complexity between Chinese and Korean, which occupy two extremes respectively in a continuum with various degrees of inflectional richness.
		A Korean verb consists of a stem, and a sequence of inflectional suffixes.
		Accordingly in Yanbian, where the Korean language and writing system are widely used alongside the Chinese language and writing system, both languages are used in documents and announcements of government meetings, in business and commerce, and in describing titles and writing authorizations to technicians, and workers.

	The Korean War Revisited
		North Korean leader Kim Il-sung and Chinese communist leader Mao Zedong, while primarily concerned with their own objectives and national interests, shared communist ideology and were bound by the historical connection and geographical proximity between China and Korea.
		By 1950, the Chinese leadership had concluded that the danger of direct US intervention in China had receded, but that the United States would continue to be an implacable foe of the revolution, threatening China from the "three danger spots" of Korea, Taiwan, and Indochina.
		In spite of their very weak industrial bases, the North Koreans and Chinese were able throughout the war to obtain supplies from the Soviets, through local sources, and by the use of captured materiel.

		For example, in Korean the imperative "go" can be rendered kara when speaking to an inferior or a child, kage when speaking to an adult inferior, kaseyo when speaking to a superior, and kasipsio when speaking to a person of still higher rank.
		Although the Korean and Chinese languages are not related in terms of grammatical structure, more than 50 percent of all Korean vocabulary is derived from Chinese loanwords, a reflection of the cultural dominance of China over 2 millennia.
		Koreans select one or the other variant to achieve the proper register in speech or in writing, and to make subtle distinctions of meaning in accordance with established usage.

	The Analyst - Internet Health Report: Treatment: Ginseng, Korean - Chinese / Asian (Panax ginseng)
		Korean or Chinese Ginseng may prove especially effective in restoration of normal adrenal function and prevention of adrenal atrophy associated with corticosteroid administration.
		Both Chinese ginseng (Panax ginseng) and Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) are known to exert beneficial effects on adrenal function and enhance resistance to stress.
		Korean and Chinese research has shown that ginseng acts directly on the adrenal glands while others have shown that it may act on the brain itself.

		The protests of the Korean-Chinese may appear at first glance to be a desperate attempt to evade deportation, but the ethnic Koreans say their actions are for a more fundamental and justified cause _ obtaining the right to live in their motherland.
		Although the majority of the ethnic Koreans are descendents of independence fighters who fled to China during Japanese colonial rule, they were barred from returning home after a communist government was set up in North Korea and the situation has continued even after the establishment of Korean-Chinese diplomatic ties in 1992.
		He said that the Korean-Chinese community in China is now on the verge of collapse, with Korean schools shutting down and the younger generation becoming oblivious to their Korean heritage.

	The Korean War
		South Korean forces, caught off-guard on a sleepy Sunday morning, were immediately overrun and forced to withdraw.
		The Chinese, remembering the Korean contribution to their own civil war, and unwilling to accept an armed American presence on their border, entered the war in overwhelming force in November 1950.
		It is estimated that anywhere from 500,000 to 1,500,000 Chinese and North Korean soldiers died in the war.

		A downtown and a river bridge removed from the busy streets of St. Paul, Hoban appears to be the one oddity among the Korean restaurants in the Twin Cities, which is not necessary a bad thing, according to Lim.
		According to Lim, Korean dishes are much harder to assimilate into this culture because the smallest changes in recipes would no longer make the food Korean.
		For Korean customers, the popular dishes are various chee gaes (hot, spicy stews cooked with seafood) and one of the most popular dishes is the dol-soht bibimbap, a dish he often made while working in Los Angeles restaurants.

	Language Purism in Korea
		Up to this time, Chinese language and characters had been serving as the H(igh) language of the aristocratic elite and literati for hundreds of years, while Korean, and its Hangul alphabet, were considered L(ow) language(H and L in the terms of Fishman,1967 and Ferguson, 1959; cited in Song, 206).
		North Koreans who were opposed to the full abandonment of Chinese characters (because of the resulting confusion in the vocabulary system) were dealt with by being publicly denounced as "the remains of the overthrown exploiting class, sectarian factors deeply influenced by flunkeyism, doctrinism, and reactionism"(93).
		Despite its early rhetoric against Chinese characters and their supporters, the government reversed its policy in 1966, citing the necessity of 'understanding the literature of the South', and in 1968, they began the teaching of a small number of the characters as "foreign orthographic symbols"(Kumatani, 93).

	Korean-Chinese Demand Citizenship (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		When thousands of Korean-Chinese filed applications for Korean citizenship two weeks ago, it was widely perceived as a last-ditch attempt to stop the government from forcefully deporting them from Korea.
		The unprecedented move by more than 5,000 ethnic Koreans from China came less than a week before a government-set deadline by which foreigners illegally residing in Korea had to leave the nation.
		The government fears that its recognition of them as Koreans may cause diplomatic friction with China, which is keen to maintain a tight grip over minority groups within its territory.

	Korean Chess
		In both Korean and Chinese Chess, one has to move a full step to move across the center row, regardless of whether it's called a "river" or not (as in Korean Chess).
		In Chinese Chess, moving from the 5th to the 6th row is "moving across the river" where the pawns gain the power to move one step sideways--and where the Bishops can not move across.
		For the curious, the Chinese Chess pawn is different; it can't move sideways until after getting to it's 6th row (called after crossing the river) and it can't move down the diagonal line in the enemy's fortress.

		Korean Chess, although considered by some wilder and more fun than Chinese Chess, takes a little more time due to the fewer restrictions on the Korean Chess pawns, guards, and king and additional restrictions on the Korean cannon.
