We hear a lot about Korea in the news lately.

There’s so much more to the history and culture than what the news shows us.

I want my children to understand Asian history in our chronological studies of world history.

Our {evangelical and expensive} history curriculum was a little disappointing after WWII, so I had to research and find my own material to teach my kids real history and culture.

I grew up watching M.A.S.H. with my parents and we own the complete DVD collection.

I want to learn real history along with my kids, not just an American perspective.
