Just a random side comment...odd to see Korean culture actually getting cool enough to come up often in popular media. Back when I first immigrated here the only time people heard about Korea was in old episodes of MASH.
This whole trilogy is is so good about showing us Korean culture! Food, names, family stuff, it's all so good.
I'm glad more book series and such are based on it, it's such an interesting culture. (And it's funny/embarrassing, it took me a moment to remember the MASH connection; I knew it was set in a war, but I had forgotten which one. It's been decades since I watched it last!)
