What is filial piety?

Korean drama shows different kinds of filial piety. It's something to think about:

1. A person gives up himself including his own life to accomplish what his parents are determined to accomplish.
2. A person obeys what his parents say even though it's not reasonable, believing that he is practicing "absolute obedience."
3. A person tries to make his siblings follow his own agenda by using the authority of what his parents might have said in a different context.
