An index of all media originating in South Korea. See also Korean Wave, the phenomenon of internationalization of Korean media.
Works from the other side of the 38th Parellel appear to be too few and far between, and don't exist in sufficient numbers to justify an index of their own; anyone looking for North Korean Media is directed to the North Korean page, which maintains a short listing of perhaps eight or nine examples drawn from all categories. Further examples of North Korean works should be added there.
