KXLA (44) is also currently showing their programming on digital station 44.1. But I cannot find a KBS schedule for the digital station, 44.1. KBS America is still providing the analog 44 schedule (and schedules for Dish Network and TimeWarner), but not the digital station 44.1.I live in Chicago, but my sister lives in your area, so I sent her this schedule linkage:
Channel 44 analog+digital schedule
She said that it is right most of the time for 44 and 44.1...
You can change the start date/time in the upper left corner...
It agrees w/ what you posted about "The Iron Empress" schedule for this weekend...

K-Drama: 천추태후 (The Iron Empress)
It is showing on KBS World on Sat/Sun at 6:45-7:55. There have been 7 episodes so far. It is a good show so far with many well known actors.

Re: K-Drama: 천추태후 (The Iron Empress)
I'm already missing the Emperor who just died. There was just something about that actor and his portrayal of the 'crazy' king that was such a breath of fresh air to me. The expressions he could conjure up in those eyes were spot on, ranging from unpredictable rashness to playfulness to seriously assessing the 'lay of the land' to loving his young Queen. I need to do some research on this actor and see what else he's been in.
How shocking that this king died at age 26 (king from 19–26). Well, only shocking in our present day context, I suppose. The majority of people born in those days never made it through infancy or childhood.
I'm glad we've moved now into the adult cast for the story. It was quite an effective juxtaposition seeing the young woman in mourning and misery, the victim of her brother's increasingly permanent distancing her from her son. Seeing a young woman going out to ride her horse in freedom and abandon suddenly morphing into the hair-flowing warrior played by Chae SiRa was quite emotionally stimulating. The director's choice of this type of story advancement was hugely effective, drawing us into the power and presence of Chae SiRa as the ascending Iron Empress.
I also enjoyed seeing the little actor who plays the son, Song. I think the first time I saw him was in Golden Apples? He stood out then at a very young age as an actor who would make his mark in the industry.
I find it interesting that the pre-1000 era seems to be ruled mostly by the shamans, divination, etc. (Not that we don't have that going on in a less physically exuberant manner even here in White House administrations of 'modern' times.) My curiosity is about the switch from Buddhism to Confucianism as the fundamental base of rule in the kingdoms that became Korea. Was Confucianism the catalyst in changing from spiritism to a scholarly base of rule?
I'm also pleased that the historicals have become much more interesting to a broader audience than the old battle scene, blood and guts historicals of the past. There used to be way too much of that and way too little on the story end, in my opinion. Today's historicals are beautifully done in every way—storylines, acting, costuming, locations. Much more palatable to a greater cross-section of audience, I'm sure.

Re: K-Drama: 천추태후 (The Iron Empress)
class blockquote I also enjoyed seeing the little actor who plays the son, Song.I agree! It will be interesting how he deals with his mother. After saying last night that he learned his mother is a trouble maker. (not his exact words).
Wonder if he gradually grows older or we time jump and he becomes a man.
I also like how they give the modern day name when a geographical name is mentioned.

K-Drama: 천추태후 (The Iron Empress)
I'm new at this.....I've been watching The Iron Empress on DirecTV, channel 44 in Fontana, CA. For some reason, they have not showed it Since April 4th. I can't find out why. Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks!
