POINT OF INTEREST: KOREAN TELEVISION

Korean television is like no other I have seen, at least in channel diversity. Aside from having several English, Chinese, and Japanese Channels, there are 3 channels dedicated, 24/7, to computer gaming –almost exclusively to Starcraft, a 1998 real-time strategy game. There are bound to be even more "gaming" shows on a premium cable TV connection -we have only around 40 channels on our apartment's television. There also appears to be a very small population of TV stars...when surfing the channels I could identify the same 3 or 4 celebrities on several different shows around the clock.
