Kim Jong Il's present
I read recently that during their meeting the leaders of South and North Korea, Roh Moo-hyun and Kim Jong Il respectively, exchanged presents. And Kim received 150 DVD with films and TV-shows from S. Korea. Some of them starring Kim's favourite actress - Lee Yong-ae. I wonder: what movies exactly did Roh Moo-hyun presented to Kim? All I could find in different articles as of now is Jewel in the Palace TV-series. If you find something else, feel free to post here.
Kim Jong Il is an avid cinema buff and is said to own about 20 000 films in his collection, so most probably he already had all of the films he was presented, but what interests me the most here is Roh Moo-hyun's choice of movies to give as a gift to his northern neighbor.

DVD Talk Hero
The titles included "Joint Security Area," a South Korean blockbuster thriller about a near-war between the countries prompted by the killing of North Korean soldiers, and "Dae Jang-Geum," a popular soap opera about a female physician attending to the medieval Korean court.
