Talk:Jeolla Province

message: “Jeolla was located in …” – what? Isn't it there anymore?
Except for the Culture section near the bottom, this article uses the past. I think most people say “전라도” instead of “호남” or even “서남부 지방” when they talk about this area (not as an administrative entity), and this article should reflect that usage. The same problem perhaps affects similar articles.
Uninformed people who follow a link in, for example, the People's Republic of Korea article will be surprised to learn that its units were active in a province of the Joseon dynasty. If you insist that 전라도 is a thing of the past, we'd have to change a few links from Jeolla to Honam to avoid anachronisms, although I think we should go with the term people use.

message: In the last few days there have been several articles vandalized with claims that Jeolla and Gwangju are pro-North and that pro-democracy protestors were traitors to South Korea. This is in line with typical trolling from Ilbe, which is like the Korean 4chan. Please revert any changes like this, and be extremely cautious of any claims of "pro-North" activity or "rioting" in South Korea.

message: I included North Korea in the list - separate from Korea as a whole - because the DPRK still refers to itself AS Joseon, not just "Korea". The name - 조선민주주의인민공화국 - is made of four Korean words - 조선 (Joseon) 민주주의 (Democracy) 인민 (People) 공화국 (Republic). South Korea prefers to refer to Korea as 한국 ("Hangook", literally translates as "one nation"), so it's important to note the difference between the two. 160.133.1.228 (talk) 20:45, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

message: I've removed many instances of "...can also be translated as emperor."  Most of the titles alleged thusly are rarely, and inappropriately, translated as such.  In translating East Asian titles, "Emperor" is reserved for "Hwang" and "Je" -- titles derived from the Chinese Huang and Di.  Just because a kingly ruler rules over other kingly rulers does not automatically make him an emperor.  Across the world, most titles meaning "great king" are not translated as emperor.

Talk:Television in South Korea

message: Is the "launch date" of a station the first date it went on the air, or something else?
The following launch dates are copiously documented for (most of) the South Korean networks:
KBS (KBS1) - 1961 December 31
TBC (became KBS2) - 1964 December 7
MBC - 1969 August 8
KBS2 expropriated from TBC - 1980 December 1
SBS - 1991 December 9
See please the footnotes in the article "Korean drama" sv "History" (the only date above not given *and footnoted* in that article is the 1980 one for KBS2).  Also see please the Korea Times for the relevant dates, except for KBS (1) which it didn't cover until the following October, and TBC which it didn't cover for the first week.  Note the prominence of commemorative programming on the first dates of MBC and SBS.
I'm not correcting this article at this time just in case a "launch date" is actually the date a network got a license, or opened a corporate office, or held a parade, or whatever.  But if it's first date on the air, the only date listed above that agrees with the article is the KBS2 one.  Which leaves me suspicious of the claimed launch dates of EBS and the local stations, too.

thread_title:  Hong-ju Lee Family Research 

message: The infobox is not helpful to understand the surname 李. I apologize for using strong language, but I sincerely feel that to say that 李, 異 and 伊 are the same "Lee" (using ABCs, in English) proves nothing but extreme arrogance (even if due to misunderstanding) on the part of whoever inserted the infobox.  I accept that the current situation intends to reflect information on just that situation ("Lee", using ABCs, in English), however to treat "Lee" (etc. etc.) as a name in itself is a mistake (because it is not what someone calls himself by. It is merely an anglicization of what he calls himself by). To go further and (incorrectly) say that it is a "Korean name" does nothing but pour salt on a wound.
The situation is as follows:
#The name 李 can be pronounced 리 (Ri) or 이 (I).
#A common anglicization of 李 is "Lee" (for various reasons). 
#* Therefore "Lee" may refer to a character which can be pronounced in more than one way. [From points 1 and 2.]
#In South Korea, Ri is considered North Korean.  Some people will take offence when they are called Ri when they themselves use I.
#"Lee" as written sounds like Ri. 
#* Therefore saying "Lee" as written may cause offence. [3, 4]
#李 has other anglicizations, including "Ri", "Rhee", "I", "Yi" etc. which reflect both pronunciations.
#*"Lee", "Ri", "Rhee", "I", "Yi" are all anglicizations of (the same name) 李. [2, 5]
No Korean would consider 李, 異 and 伊 at the same time. They are unrelated, in exactly the same way "Smith" and "Jones" are unrelated.
I say this as a native Korean speaker. 118.90.83.62 (talk) 12:55, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

There were a couple of colleges on the list before, and it seemed more sensible to keep a single list rather than having a separate list of colleges (although the college/university distinction is more important in SK than in, for example, the US).  Anyway, although I've added a few, there are more that could be listed.  The current list is drawn from the list I compiled for the Open Directory Project, and therefore only includes those institutions that have recently had English-language websites, in addition to those that were already on the list.
