Sam, don't know if you already know of the Matthews Korea Fund (MAKOX).
It is open-end, so there isn't the premium problem. I don't own
it yet, but it will probably be my vehicle of choice if I decide
to get into Korea. There are ADR's, but no web as yet. I posted
a link a week or so back to an article (possibly several jumps
to the article itself, since I got if via the Asia thread) in which
a guy followed Matthews and his co-manager around on some visits
to Korean companies; it was rather entertaining reading. I haven't
done any hard-core diligence on the quality of the management,
however; the article makes it sound like they are getting tough,
but then they have been burned by Asia over the last year or two!

Good luck, let us know if/when you decide to take the plunge.
Or dip your little toe in.

Cheers,

Howard
