Social Status and Hierarchy

Korean dramas are interesting to watch and follow.  While it is a microscopic len, it can be educational although I will not take it too seriously.  It seems like the society is very status concious and social economic status is always used as a comparison.  The language also have formal and casual forms.  To address the seniors, there are so many different level.  So Koreans have brought the Confucius teaching to a total different level!!  Confucius is the one who setup and teach social hierarchy.  So watching the Korean dramas give me a tiny window into the social behaviours of the Korean Society.
