Jewel in the Palace
That's the title of a Korean tv miniseries airing 5 PM daily at Indosiar, the Indonesia tv channels. It's a Korean series that is "is based on the story of a real historical figure (Jang-geum) who was the first and only woman to serve as head physician to the King in the rigidly hierarchical and male-dominated social structure of the Joseon Dynasty" (more here). It's currently still in early stages of its 3-month run, where Jang-geum is working as a cook in the palace. Actually, it's probably the best part of the movie for me: those wonderful warm aromas of Korean cooking wafting through the screen are really comforting (and enticing) in the afternoons of the rainy season.
