The English Connection January 2002 Volume 6 / Issue 1 Volume 6 The ENGLISH Number 1 CONNECTION 2002 A Publication of Korea Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages Speaking a foreign language is, at times, like jumping over the Grand Canyon or Han River. That is, even native speakers forget words and get hung up trying to communicate their meaning with the strait jacket of language. These lapses are even greater for non-native speakers, who have Introducing less experience using the language. All speakers face such gaps in lexical knowledge and grammar and must dare Compensation to leap the vast divides to maintain communication.

The Fundamental Studies Concerning Classical Chinese Literature 14 The Review of Korean Studies and the Associated Compilation of Texts with Collected Commentaries during the Reign of Sejong 15 Introduction and this project then led to the compilation of the Dongguk jeongun. Prince Anpyeong was put in charge of this latter project along with the crown prince King Sejong did not leave shi poetry (Chinese classical poetry) although he wrote (or Munjong) and Prince Jinyang (or Prince Suyang). In 1447, the Dongguk Korean-language poems. The first volume of theSejo sillok includes one piece of the jeongun was completed, and in the following year it was published in six “Mongjungjak” (Writing in a Dream 夢中作) and it is also included in the “Sejong volumes. The Konkuk University Library preserves the entire Volumes and eoje” 世宗御製 of the Yeolseong eoje 列聖御製, but I regard this piece as a forgery. the Gansong Art Museum has Volumes one and six. Around that time the King Sejong read the Ou Su shoujian (Letters between Ouyang Xiu and Samun tonggo was completed by an unknown person. Su Shi 歐蘇手簡) thoroughly (Sim 2016a), but he did not study how to write In the seventh month of 1448 (30th year of Sejong’s reign), Sejong wanted shi poetry and hence he did not write and leave shi poetry actively through his to establish a Buddhist shrine in the vicinity of the palace for Queen Soheon entire life. -

ABSTRACT Title of Document: UNTOLD STORIES: THE OTHER KOREA Grace Pak, Master of Architecture, Spring 2015 Directed By: Professor Garth Rockcastle, Department of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation This thesis explores the dialectical tensions, ironies, and myths of North Korea, with the hope of exposing fallacies and bringing awareness to the crisis of the oppressed citizens of this hermetic country. There are discrepancies between the North Korea that most people know, and one that is lesser known, which contains the everyday stories of real people. The goal is to design a cultural landscape containing the narratives of the persecuted in an effort to promote understanding about a country that is largely misinterpreted because of the images the Kim dictatorship and international media have planted in the minds of many people. The architecture provides a ground for commentary on the truth and what can be done to change the current state of apathy, ignorance, and helplessness. Acts of violation against humanity that continue in North Korea must be stopped. The fact that the North and South must reunite to save the citizens of North Korea is a pressing issue that the South Koreans must genuinely want in order to create change. Gathering information about Korea’s history and attributes of the proposed site will reveal how time changes space, the way our memories and ideas are both temporal and timeless as they are exchanged. When we become more aware of the issues at large, it will change our indifference and help us react to the stories that are told. UNTOLD STORIES: THE OTHER KOREA By Grace J. -
Imperialism (1800-1914) the Industrialized Nations Embarked Upon a Competition for Overseas Empires That Had Profound Implications for the Entire World
Bringing Korea in to the Classroom: Lesson Plan Name: Dan Harris Lesson Title: The Consequences of Western Imperial Policy in Asia: A Comparison of the Treaty of Kangwha (1876) to the Treaty of Kanagawa (1854) Time Range: 1-2 class periods (approximately 60 minutes) Ohio Standards: Imperialism (1800-1914) The industrialized nations embarked upon a competition for overseas empires that had profound implications for the entire world. This “new imperialism” focused on the underdeveloped world and led to the domination and exploitation of Asia, Africa and Latin America Ohio Benchmarks: 11. Imperialism involved land acquisition, extraction of raw materials, the spread of Western values, and maintenance of political control. 12. The consequences of imperialism were viewed differently by the colonizers and the colonized Grade Level Indicators: History 9 Introduction/Lesson Summary: Emerging on the tail end of the Age of Industrialization (19th Century), the Age of Imperialism (1800-1914) saw the globalization of Western policies, culture, and economics. This was seen as progress by the Western nations and was heralded as the key to “modernizing” the global marketplace. As more nations took part in this global scramble for markets of goods and resources, lesser-developed nations began taking up similar practices as a means of coping (if not competing) with the Imperial powers. According to Asia for Educators: Imperialism: Western and Japanese By the mid-nineteenth century Korea was one of the last Asian holdouts against Western imperialism, which had conquered much of southern Asia and was making inroads on China. Vietnam, which like Korea was a close tributary state to China, had been conquered by the French in the 1860s. -

Asia-Pacific Economic and Business History Conference, Berkeley, 2011 (Feb. 18-20): Preliminary Draft Institutional Differences and the Great Divergence:* Comparison of Joseon Kingdom with the Great Britain Soh, ByungHee Professor of Economics Kookmin University, Seoul, Korea e-mail: [email protected] Abstract If modern Koreans in the 20th century could achieve a remarkable economic growth through industrialization, why couldn’t their ancestors in Joseon Kingdom in early modern period achieve an industrial revolution at that time? This is the fundamental question of this paper. There existed several social and institutional constraints in Joseon Kingdom (1392-1897 A.D.) in the 17th through 19th centuries that made her industrial development impossible. The strictly defined social classes and the ideology of the ruling class deprived Joseon Kingdom of the entrepreneurial spirit and the incentives to invent new technology necessary for industrial development. Markets and foreign trades were limited and money was not used in transaction until late 17th century. Technicians and engineers were held in low social esteem and there was no patent to protect an inventor’s right. The education of Confucian ethical codes was intended to inculcate loyalty to the ruling class Yangban and the King. The only way to get out of the hard commoner’s life was to pass the national civil service examination to become a scholar-bureaucrat. Joseon Kingdom was a tributary country to Qing Dynasty and as such it had to be careful about technological and industrial development not to arouse suspicion from Qing. Joseon was not an incentivized society while the Great Britain was an incentivized society that was conducive to Industrial Revolution. -
Korean Students in New York City, 1907-1937 Jean H. Park Submitted
Exiled Envoys: Korean Students in New York City, 1907-1937 Jean H. Park Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2021 © 2021 Jean H. Park All Rights Reserved Abstract Exiled Envoys: Korean Students in New York City, 1907-1937 Jean H. Park This dissertation follows the activism of Korean students in New York City and the trajectory of their American education as it applied to Korea’s colonization under the Empire of Japan. As a focused historical account of the educational experiences of Korean students in New York from 1907 to 1937, this dissertation uses archival evidence from their associations, correspondence, publications, and the institutions they studied at to construct a transnational narrative that positions the Korean students operating within and outside the confines of their colonial experience. The following dissertation answers how the Korean students applied their American education and experiences to the Korean independence movement, and emphasizes the interplay of colonization, religion, and American universities in contouring the students’ activism and hopes for a liberated Korea.

Sinking of MV Sewol - Excerpted from Wikipedia
Sinking of MV Sewol - Excerpted from Wikipedia, The sinking of MV Sewol (Hangul: 세월호 침몰 사고; Hanja: 世越 號沈沒事故), also referred to as the Sewol Ferry Disaster, occurred on the morning of 16 April 2014, when the passenger/ro-ro ferry was en route (on the way) from Incheon towards Jeju in South Korea. The Japanese-built South Korean ferry sank while carrying 476 people, mostly secondary school students from Danwon High School (Ansan City). The 6,825-ton vessel sent a distress signal from about 2.7 kilometres (1.7 mi) north of Byeongpungdo at 08:58 Korea Standard Time (23:58 UTC, 15 April 2014). In total, 304 passengers and crew members died in the disaster. Of the approximately 172 survivors, more than half were rescued by fishing boats and other commercial vessels that arrived at the scene approximately 40 minutes after the South Korean coast guard. The sinking of Sewol resulted in widespread social and political reaction within South Korea. Many criticized the actions of the captain and most of the crew. Also criticized were the ferry operator and the regulators who oversaw its operations, along with the South Korean government for its disaster response (including the poor showing of the then Korean coastguard) and attempts to downplay government culpability. (to weaken the governmental responsibility) THE SINKING OF MV SEWOL 1 On 15 May 2014, the captain and three crew members were charged with murder, while the other 11 members of the crew were indicted for (be accused of) abandoning the ship. An arrest warrant was also issued for Yoo Byung-eun, the owner of Chonghaejin Marine, which operated Sewol, but he could not be found despite a nationwide manhunt (a nationwide seeking for a guilty man). -
Mr. Akio Komatsu Is President of the Human, Nature and Science Institute Foundation in Japan Which Is Working for the Creation of "Wa"(Harmony/Peace) Culture
Interview: Mr. Akio Komatsu is President of the Human, Nature and Science Institute Foundation in Japan which is working for the creation of "wa"(harmony/peace) culture. Q1: Mr. Komatsu, you have been working for international peace for some twenty years. What caused you to work for this goal, not as a politician or a social activist, but as a businessman? A1: After graduating from a technical high school, I worked for eight years developing agricultural machinery. By using deductive, dialectical and inductive methods, I learned how to proceed from inspiration to reality. But my company went bankrupt when I was twenty-six, which caused me to re-evaluate my life. I took a month to sit in Zen meditation and realized that only thing we human beings can be sure of in life is our ultimate death. In contemplation my thinking turned toward how to design my life, face my death and ask myself what I would leave behind when I'm gone. After that, for two years in Osaka I practiced small business, and then went back to Shimane. Shimane is well known in Korea as the prefecture where the observance of Takeshima Day originated. There, with my brother, I started a pump-repairing and electrical parts assembling plant. With our family-company of thirty workers we tried to catch up with and surpass the only electric control-distribution board company in our area. When I was thirty-two I took my first trip abroad and visited Korea, which was then under martial law. While sharing a taxi at night, I got into some trouble because of my Japanese nationality. -
An Autoethnography on Teaching Undergraduate Korean Studies, on and Off the Peninsula

Saeji Acta Koreana, Volume 21, Number 2, December 2018, pp. 443-459 (Article) Published by Keimyung University, Academia Koreana For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/756425 [ Access provided at 1 Oct 2021 21:59 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] ACTA KOREANA Vol. 21, No. 2, December 2018: 443–460 doi:10.18399/acta.2018.21.2.004 No Frame to Fit It All: An Autoethnography on Teaching Undergraduate Korean Studies, on and off the Peninsula CEDARBOUGH T. SAEJI In the past two decades, Korean Studies has expanded to become an interdisciplinary and increasingly international field of study and research. While new undergraduate Korean Studies programs are opening at universities in the Republic of Korea (ROK) and intensifying multi-lateral knowledge transfers, this process also reveals the lack of a clear identity that continues to haunt the field. In this autoethnographic essay, I examine the possibilities and limitations of framing Korea as an object of study for diverse student audiences, looking towards potential futures for the field. I focus on 1) the struggle to escape the nation-state boundaries implied in the habitual terminology, particularly when teaching in the ROK, where the country is unmarked (“Han’guk”), the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is marked (“Pukhan”), and the diaspora is rarely mentioned at all; 2) the implications of the expansion of Korean Studies as a major within the ROK; 3) in-class navigations of Korean national pride, the trap of Korean uniqueness and (self-)orientalization and CEDARBOUGH T.
