	signandsight.com (www.signandsight.com) is the English service of
	Perlentaucher (www.perlentaucher.de), Germany's largest independent
	online cultural magazine. Every day Perlentaucher's editors scoure the
	pages of the quality German-language cultural press for the best
	articles of note, and we translate them into English and put them online.
	
	Recently we have put three stories on Korean literature online, which I
	think you will find interesting. I would be delighted you would post
	these links, or pass them on to interested readers.
