The NKF and Korean Soap Conspiracy.

Every year, NKF sponsers for a drama serial on ch 8. And every year, the story revolves around the same NKF stock characters.

Sick sad poor broken family death all stirred into the rojak of the typical NKF-drama(mama) family.

See the similarities ready?? Korean dramas often have sad endings too. Take the very first one, and the only one i followed cos of the monkey law. (Monkey see monkey do.) The female protagonist died of leukemia.

The recent show, the po li xie show, the female protag also was ailed with the same disease. There are other korean shows where female protags also died or suffer from the same disease. How strange. I wonder if this shows are sponsered by NLF in Korea. National Leukemia Foundation.

And their protags hardly get together in the end. Ppl either leave or die.

That's why i have reason to believe the NKF-drama scripts are written by Korean NLF volunteers. Or nurses. Or doctors. Or counsellors who are stricken with leukemia.
