The Korean government has just signed a contract with Hancom to purchase 120,000 copies of HancomLinux Deluxe 2.0 (which is basically Red Hat OS + tweaks + korean language support + KDE localized) and HancomOffice 2.0. Thats quite a big achievement. Here is Hancom's Press Release about it.

Is 120,000 South Koreans sending emails spreading the good word from commrade Stallman to any North Koreans who sends them .doc attachments. It'll probably start a war.
