I seriously wonder how committed the Chinese authorities are in this as they obviously even fail to check what is shipped abroad. I am writing an article on Copyright (infringement) and Korean media in China and I was wondering if I could ask you for some comments... Do the shops you were talking about sell a lot of Korean music/movies/dramas? Could you specify a little what kind of (Korean) stuff they sell in particular? (more music, or more TV-related stuff)? Sorry to bother you with these questions; I would really appreciate any comment you would be willing to give me (and I would like to use it in my article, with your permission of course). With many thanks, Roald (http://asianstudies.anu.edu.au/Dr_Roald_Maliangkay) Dear David,
