Free sample - Korean Drama DVD (US/Canada Only)
I grabbed this link from one of my DVD bargain forums:
http://yaentertainment.com/freedvd.html
It looks legitimate to me, and seems to have no strings attached,
but I can't confirm because I'm not in US/Canada.
Enjoy!

Hello! 안녕하세요 is from EBS. S1 is presented by Richard Harris (who has written some good Korean books too) and a native Korean who speaks only Korean in the show. I would say it is aimed at the advanced beginner. S2 starts at the very beginning and is roughly the equivalent of LSK S2. This (Korean) li...

You can watch season 3 directly from the arirang site (http://www.arirangtv.com),
in the video on demand section.
and it looks like seirin is putting up S3 episodes up on her clubbox as well.

Interesting that no one seems to have mentioned what I think is the most important point.

All of the these series have excellent stories so you really can't go wrong. Even though they're 50+ episodes most don't seem to drag the way some kdramas do. Maybe watch Dae Jang Geum first if you're a girl, and Damo if you're a guy. I'm gonna vote for Damo coz of it's short length. Oh and the prod...
