Korea Ranks 115th in Gender Equality Report

One of the reasons why people study Korean at KCC is because they want to work in Korea. However, it is troubling to learn that Korean female citizens have to endure worse pay and working conditions than their male counterparts. According to The Korea Times , the country is below the world average of 0.632 with regards to gender equality:

DepEd Approves Adding Korean in SPFL

I was only made aware recently that the Korean language can now be studied by Philippine high school students, joining the ranks of Chinese (Mandarin), Japanese (Nihongo), German, French and Spanish as an option in the Special Program in Foreign Languages.

So Ji Sub is So Ready to be a Daddy

So Ji Sub revealed his trepidation to take on the role of a father in the film Be With You. In his interview with  Korea Herald , the highly respected actor commented, "I couldn't imagine myself as a father, so[,] I didn't think I would be able to do it. If I started shooting, feeling like that, I would hinder the production[; but,] I just couldn't pass it up, I wanted to work in a film that makes me feel good." Regarding children, So Ji Sub shared with  Soompi  that he hopes to be a husband and father in the future. With Korean drama Terius Behind Me (also known as My Secret Terrius), So Ji Sub got to interact with two adorable tykes. In between takes, the enigmatic actor was clearly enjoying himself with the children. Will the long time bachelor soon take on the role of daddy in real life?

It should properly be called EDSA-McKinley Terminal, but the official BGC website refers to it as EDSA-Ayala." The nearest bus station to KCC PH is the Bonifacio Stopover on 31st Street. The BGC bus will actually pass the Mancor Corporate Center where KCC PH is located on 32nd Street, right before the Bonifacio Stopover bus station on 31st Street. So, it's quite easy to tell that it's time to get off the bus. Other landmarks on 32nd Street are St. Luke's Medical Center and Jollibee. From the Bonifacio Stopover bus station, it's an estimated 250m walk to the

Where is Terius Behind Me in the Philippines

Nowhere. It's effing nowhere. Geographical rights have made lunatics of all the Filipino viewers who were looking forward to watching Terius Behind Me every Thursday and Friday, after the Korean episodes have been edited with English subtitles. Are the rights too expensive? So ludicrously exorbitant that no site can afford it?
