Dear List,

I've been reading the messages posted on the list for roughly two years,
and 
I occasionally respond directly to those who post here.  However, I
don't 
recall if I've posted to the whole list, or if I've introduced myself.  
Here's my very brief bio:

I'm a graduate student in the Political Science dept. at the University
of 
Hawaii.  I'm interested in how East Asian societies have adopted and
adapted 
democratic political systems, especially democratization in South
Korea.  So 
that I can better understand Korean political phenomena, I am currently 
studying Korean at the Korean Language Institute at Yonsei University.

I have reached the point in my studies where I need to be able to
recognize 
and understand Korean idiomatic expressions.  My question is this: Does 
anyone know of a collection of Korean idioms and their explanations? 
The 
explanations can be in English, but I'd prefer if they were in Korean.

Thanks,

Joel Motsay
