  • South Korea Section 3
    DEFENSE WHITE PAPER Message from the Minister of National Defense The year 2010 marked the 60th anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War. Since the end of the war, the Republic of Korea has made such great strides and its economy now ranks among the 10-plus largest economies in the world. Out of the ashes of the war, it has risen from an aid recipient to a donor nation. Korea’s economic miracle rests on the strength and commitment of the ROK military. However, the threat of war and persistent security concerns remain undiminished on the Korean Peninsula. North Korea is threatening peace with its recent surprise attack against the ROK Ship CheonanDQGLWV¿ULQJRIDUWLOOHU\DW<HRQS\HRQJ Island. The series of illegitimate armed provocations by the North have left a fragile peace on the Korean Peninsula. Transnational and non-military threats coupled with potential conflicts among Northeast Asian countries add another element that further jeopardizes the Korean Peninsula’s security. To handle security threats, the ROK military has instituted its Defense Vision to foster an ‘Advanced Elite Military,’ which will realize the said Vision.

The military has also endeavored to invigorate the defense industry as an exporter so the defense economy may develop as a new growth engine for the entire Korean economy.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: UNTOLD STORIES: THE
    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.

  • The Butt of the Joke? Laughter and Potency in the Becoming of Good Soldiers
    The Butt of the Joke? The Butt of the Joke? Laughter and Potency in the Becoming of Good Soldiers Beate Sløk-Andersen Copenhagen Business School Denmark Abstract In the Danish military, laughter plays a key role in the process of becoming a good soldier. Along with the strictness of hierarchy and discipline, a perhaps surprisingly widespread use of humor is essential in the social interaction, as the author observed during a participatory fieldwork among conscripted soldiers in the army. Unfolding the wider context and affective flows in this use of humor, however, the article suggests that the humorous tune (Ahmed 2014a) that is established among the soldiers concurrently has severe consequences as it not only polices soldiers’ sexuality and ‘wrong’ ways for men to be close, but also entangles in the ‘making’ of good, potent soldiers. Humor is therefore argued to be a very serious matter that can cast soldiers as either insiders or outsiders to the military profession. Keywords: military, humor, attunement, affects, military service, potency, sexuality uring a four-month-long participatory fieldwork amongst soldiers serving in the Danish army, I experienced how laughter permeated everyday life and caused momentary breaks from the seriousness that came with being Dembedded in a quite hierarchal structure. Even the sergeants who were supposed to discipline the young soldiers were keen on lightening the atmosphere by telling jokes or encouraging others to do so. Humor appeared to make military service more fun: it lightened the mood and supported social bonds among soldiers which also made the tough times more bearable. However, I also observed how humor took part in ‘making’ of military professionals; how seemingly innocent comments or actions that were “just a joke” took part in establishing otherwise unspoken limitations and norms for how to be a good soldier.

    Analysis on Media Coverage of Kim Jong-Un in the Norwegian newspapers, Aftenposten: After emergence of Kim Jong-un in the North Korea from Sep 2010 to Des 2016 Jinha Sim EAST4593. Master‟s Thesis in East Asian Culture and History At the Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages, Faculty of Humanities UNIVERSITETET I OSLO June 2017 © Jinha Sim 2017 Analysis on Media Coverage of Kim Jong-Un in the Norwegian newspapers, Aftenposten: After emergence of Kim Jong-un in the North Korea from Sep 2010 to Des 2016 http://www.duo.uio.no/ Print: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo II Abstract The Propaganda Model claimed that the media collaborating the propaganda of state foreign policies, created manipulated public consents. In this thesis, I tried to find out whether or nor the Propaganda Model can apply to a country which has no direct national interest, so relatively neutral like in Norway. I analyzed 289 news articles in Aftenposten, Norway‟s biggest newspaper, with the searching word „Kim Jong-un‟ from Sep 2010 to Dec 2016. I focused to code news sources, the third filter in the Propaganda Model, in news articles and found out that the reliance on the dominant Western media and quotation from elites (i.e. governmental officers and experts) in on the dominant Western media in favor of South Korea was high in Aftenposten. In types of sources, the government related sources from the US, the UK, South Korea and Japan was 68 per cent, in contrary China and North Korea was only 2 per cent. When it comes to sorting out frequency of direct quotations, North Korea was merely 4.8 per cent as same as China while the US were made up the biggest 31.1 per cent.

  • Newfolk NDF: Military Speech
    Newfolk NDF: Military Speech New Directions in Folklore 7 2003 Newfolk :: NDF :: Archive :: Issue 7 Military Speech Carol Burke When freshmen, or "plebes," at the U.S. Naval Academy finish their summer basic training, they trade in their "dixie cups" (sailor hats) for "covers" (officer hats) and begin the toughest year in their careers, a year in which "flamers" "ream them out" in front of their peers for minor infractions. Those who receive the harshest abuse are the "shit screens"; those who ingratiate themselves with upperclassmen, the "smacks." In World War II, a pilot would rev up his "coffee grinder" (plane engine) and, with permission of the "madhouse (control tower), take off toward his target, where he would either "hang out the laundry" (drop parachutists), lay a few "eggs" (bombs), or make a "split S" (combat maneuver) and then hightail it from the "junior prom" (hot mission), "flak happy" (suffering from combat fatigue), hoping to get home without a "panting virgin" or a "ruptured duck" (injured plane). Members of the military, like other occupational groups, maintain their own informal vocabulary, one that serves to distinguish them from civilians, to add humor to what is often a tedious job, to relieve anxiety when the tension of war replaces the tedium of peace, and to express their frustration with the hierarchical institution of which they are a small part. In their close-knit communities they pass along inherited and often humorous turns of speech while simultaneously coining new colorful expressions that comment on the particular experiences of their unit. Some of these never make their way out of basic training, some flourish only during a particular mission, while still others become firmly established in a unit's lexicon and foster a sense of exclusivity.
