detailed article on good sources. I would love to see some detail in a hook also, the sheer quantity of poems would not impress me and isn't even high. Yellow clay? Enlightenment? ... --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:14, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

Fact sourced. I learned not to say too much ;)

ALT2: that the paper Korea Strategy by Huang Zunxian (pictured) has been described as "a work of destiny that determined the modern history of East Asia"? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:51, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
