I came in early (about 1am) this morning and was surfing my endless choice of Korean cable TV and I came across channel no7 and NATV. They were showing pictures of kids next to a date - My Korean isn't up to scratch to know whats going on but can anyone fill me in on what they are showing?

The pictures of the kids looked sad. I got quite depressed but want to know what it is all about. Sad

The date showed when they have to start studying 12 hours per day.

I assumed that it might be also but some of the photos were from as early as 1970. I hate to think that there was some poor ajumma out there still hanging on to hope after all this time. Crying or Very sad

If it is the case, I hope find peace within themselves somehow soon.
