Thanks, AJK for putting these links all in one place. Even though I didn't finish watching this I did go and check out the links, just like when I was watching Jang Youngshil the links with "extra" information can add to the story and like in Jang Youngshil make you really appreciate what he invented, and the craftmanship in that day and age.
