I'm flippin through stations and I see

3 Korean-African kids living with a Korean man

They were his kids, but mom was not there...

Quite unusual, alot better than the Elephant man of Vietnam/Indonesia or a 2-legged dog program, unfortunately I couldn't understand a lick of what was on this program. Who watched this and understood? Where was mom?

I saw it too. Was facinating. I don't understand much Korean either, really wished my bf was home to translate for me!

Earlier in the programme they showed the family visiting their mother's memorial, so it's safe to assume that she died. They seemed to be getting on well at school.

That is really sad. I am glad for that info, thanks so much.
It would have been helpful to watch with English subs

It was alot better than Arirang- I am thrilled to have lost that channel (really) Wink

The show's called Ingan Geukjang -- literally Human Theater and translated by KBS World as Screening Humanity. It's usually 5 30-minute shows aired throughout the week. The subjects are pretty hit or miss. It airs on KBS weekdays at 7 or so, but lately the show has been lacking.

The title of the episode you saw was "Dad's Black Pearls."
