"Something Happened in Bali," Korean TV drama aired in 2004, portrays tragedy rising from love between an heir to a business empire and a poor young heroine. Korean stars Ha Ji-won, Jo In-sung, So Ji-sub appeared in that drama and it was such an enormous hit. The show had lines “classes did not exist only during the Middle Ages,” while showing the book "The Prison Notebooks" written by Italian Marxist Antonio Gramsci. The writer of the drama said it was to portray a character with antagonism towards an unequal society.
