Description

This group is for the discussion of all things Korean as it relates to the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism). This includes history prior to 1600 (Early Joseon and before), costuming, and anything else having to do with the history of the kingdoms on the Korean peninsula, including Balhae, Bugyeo, Kaya, etc.

This list is conducted in English, and the language should be kept family friendly. Discussion is encouraged.
