				First of all, if this is a duplicate thread, I apologize.  I searched and found nothing similar.
 
 
Long story short, I'm wanting to get into a Korean TV show that I can find either online or on DVD to pick up on & watch at my own pace for the purposes of learning Korean.  I don't watch Korean TV so I'm not familiar with the programming these days.
 
 
Any shows in particular you can recommend?  I'm not a fan of the historical shows but I'd be up for some sort of Korean drama/soap type show.  I'm wanting something that tries to portray present day Korean culture and language.  
 
 
As a follow up question, can you also recommend a place to buy / order / download said show?  
 
 
Thanks very much! |

				My boss is into this show called Beethoven Virus.  It was allegedly a huge sensation in Korea, but it ended already; I'm sure you can find it online.

He's always telling me how he identifies with the main character.  Now that I just read that synopsis I'm kind of disturbed. |
