Considering that he likes this guy enough to do two works involving him, I wonder what his thoughts are on this show, assuming he saw it.

Thanks for letting us know about this! Wonderful that this person wants to bring Korean history to English-speaking audiences. And the subjects he's considering for his next books are promising too--Chung Yak-yong and King Sejong.

Although...560 pages? That's a lot to ask. Yes he was a pivotal figure in his time but a book that long about one person, it may be a tough sell.
