In children’s eyes
Child protagonists have been relatively uncommon in Korean cinema. This article, however, draws attention to two films from 1965 that both feature child protagonists: Sorrow Even up in Heaven (Kim) and The DMZ (Park). The article’s interest in these two films is twofold, found both in and beyond the diegesis. On a diegetic level, the emphasis on child perspectives plays a crucial function in refraining serious fictional narratives from following …
The Two Koreas and their Global Engagements
K-Drama 2.0
The entry of international SVODs into the Korean broadcasting industry since 2016 has altered the genres, quality, and sheer scale of K-drama, arguably creating a new type of television that no longer possesses the characteristics that have so far defined K-drama. Though overshadowed by this new phenomenon, K-drama’s representative genres have been evolving to stay afloat in the rapidly changing terrain of globalized K-drama. My article explores …

Jürgen Hinzpeter and Foreign Correspondents in the 1980 Kwangju Uprising
German journalist Jürgen Hinzpeter won the 2003 Song Kun-ho Press Award for his reporting of the 1980 Kwangju Uprising. He was also the subject of documentaries and the 2017 hit movie A Taxi Driver , which credit him as the first journalist to expose the Kwangju Uprising to the world. In fact, Hinzpeter was one of many journalists who revealed what had happened at Kwangju. Since the production of the 2003 documentary Hinzpeter – the Blue-Eyed Wit…
The Korean mother in contemporary thriller films
This paper investigates the short-lived and easily overlooked cycle of Korean thriller films centring on mother characters in the mid-to-late-2000s. I call these films ‘mother thrillers.’ Through an analysis of the cycle’s key recurrent characteristics, I explore the reasons behind the popularity of this cycle, as well as the social commentary offered by such films. Focus is laid primarily on Bong Joon-ho’s Mother (2009) and Seven Days (dir. Won …
Intertitles, history and memory in Spring in My Hometown
Lee Gwang-mo’s 1998 film Spring in My Hometown (Areumdaun sijeol) tells the story of the tragic impact of the Korean War on the children of a village servicing a local US Army base. One of the film’s distinctive formal features is a set of intertitles in the style of silent film title cards that frame the beginning and end of particular sequences of the film. Each intertitle provides a running commentary of historical and fictional events occurri…
From ‘Years of Radical Change’ to ‘Korean Screen Culture’
In June 2016, King’s College London will host the fifth Korean Screen Culture Conference. To my knowledge, this is the longest running – perhaps the only – annual international conference devoted t
The regional connections of the 1728 Musin Rebellion (戊申亂)
Many scholars have stressed that regional dynamics led to the outbreak of the Musin Rebellion, the largest rebellion in eighteenth-century Korea. Scholars have examined the economic and political situation leading up to the violence and concluded that political marginalization caused Kyŏngsang Province elites (from the Southerner faction) to launch the rebellion. This paper analyses evidence from official sources about rebel motivations, rebel ge…

Histories in Stone
The 1728 Musin Rebellion was a failed attempt by factional members to overthrow militarily King Yŏngjo's government. Between 1736 and 1837, six stelae, dedicated to loyal subjects who resisted the rebels, were erected in three different provinces. These stelae contain historical descriptions of the rebellion, its suppression, and the political aftermath. Previous research centred on one stele, represented as evidence of worsening discrimination a…
South Korean Films about the Korean War
This article investigates representations of the Korean War in South Korean cinema, focussing on Pak Kwangsu's To the Starry Island and Yi Kwangmo's Spring in My Hometown and using the notion of cultural imagination, in which cinematic representations contribute to collective understandings of war.The article builds from Isolde Standish's 1992 analysis, which argued 1990s Korean War films took an opposite stance to previous representations of the…
The Free Trade Agreement—A Decade Later
(FTA) has now been in effect for ten years. Media commentators used the occasion to proclaim the FTA a great success, one-sidedly highlighting the rapid growth of exports and, in the case of Jeffrey Simpson, to pour scorn on the Cassandras of the past. Those ten years of recession and anaemic recovery, however, mark easily the worst period since the 1930s for Canadian workers. Real personal income per capita in 1998 is still lower than in 1989. T…
