[edit] Image for Yangban

I think the image Image:Yangban party.jpg is quite misleading. The only Yangban in the drawing is at lying at the top-right corner, and he does not really represent a typical Yangban. According to [1], the title of the drawing is related to farming and farmers. //Memming 19:42, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

OK, please feel free to change it for a better one. (I thought it was fairly clear that the yangban was the person in the top right). -- Visviva 23:04, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

But Yangban didn't work so much? with their prerogative? I think this is good picture and should be left and add another pic as well. - 10:37, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Time

The time should be until 1910. This system was abolished or had not been adopted under Japan rule. - 10:34, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

The yangban was not a system, it was a social identity. And really the yangban were very much intact up until 1945. Soul Slayer 07:52, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
