Which is fortuitous. Because it led me to this lovely headline from yesterday:
Korean's Surnames
Maybe not a terribly interesting headline all by itself but the article is interesting.
Other than the noted inefficiency of people daring to have hundreds of surnames, this bit stood out.
It is a custom of the Korean people to refrain from marriage between those of the same surnames and origins to give birth to fine posterity.
Glad to know! And all this time, I thought North Korea was the West Virginia of Asia!
