Landscapes of Korean and Korean American Biblical Interpretation BIBLICAL INTERPRETATION AMERICAN AND KOREAN LANDSCAPES OF KOREAN International Voices in Biblical Studies In this first of its kind collection of Korean and Korean American Landscapes of Korean biblical interpretation, essays by established and emerging scholars reflect a range of historical, textual, feminist, sociological, theological, and postcolonial readings. Contributors draw upon ancient contexts and Korean American and even recent events in South Korea to shed light on familiar passages such as King Manasseh read through the Sewol Ferry Tragedy, David and Bathsheba’s narrative as the backdrop to the prohibition against Biblical Interpretation adultery, rereading the virtuous women in Proverbs 31:10–31 through a Korean woman’s experience, visualizing the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) and demarcations in Galatians, and introducing the extrabiblical story of Eve and Norea, her daughter, through story (re)telling. This volume of essays introduces Korean and Korean American biblical interpretation to scholars and students interested in both traditional and contemporary contextual interpretations.

First and foremost, the contributors have made the volume possible. Much appreciation goes out to each contributor. Collectively, the volume has given voice and birth to a new consciousness. Culturally speaking, because Koreans and Korean Amer- icans prefer to work and operate independently, this collective effort is a true milestone. As the current president of the Korean Biblical Colloquium (KBC), I express my deepest gratitude to John Kutsko and the Society of Biblical Literature Coun- cil for having envisioned the 2016 International Meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature (IMSBL) in Seoul, South Korea with other leaders, including Yun Lak Chung (Anyang University), Koog- Pyoung Hong (Yonsei University), and espe- cially Tai Il Wang (Methodist Theological University). The IMSBL in 2016 was a seminal venue for all Korean, diaspora Korean, and Korean American biblical scholars. I also express my deepest gratitude to Jione Havea, Monica Melanchthon, Bob Buller, and the editorial board of the International Voices in Biblical Studies for accepting this work for publication. Finding the right home for a new volume is no easy task. I want to thank the anonymous peer reviewers who offered helpful insights and input and also for endorsing this volume for publication. Much ap- preciation also goes out to Nicole Tilford. Lastly, but not least, the dedication and exceptional work of three graduate students, Isaiah Ahn, Joe Harris, and Jamila Bess-Johnson have been instrumental in bringing the present volume to completion.

    Rest in Christ The Cost of Rest Lesson #4 for July 24, 2021 Scriptures: 2 Samuel 11:1-27; 12:1-23; Genesis 3:1-8; 1 John 1:9; Psalm 51:10. 1. This lesson will focus on the sin of David with Bathsheba and the consequences. Many people seem desperate to find a little peace and quiet. They are willing to pay for it too. In many big cities there are internet-free rooms, which can be rented by the hour. The rules are strict–no noise, no visitors. People are willing to pay to be able to sit quietly and just think or nap. There are sleep pods that can be rented in airports, and noise-reducing earphones are popular items. There are even canvas hoods, or collapsible privacy shields that you can buy to pull over your head and torso for a quick workplace break.—Adult Sabbath School Bible Study Guide* for Sabbath, July 17. 2. Our story begins in 2 Samuel 11:1-5. King David, who had fought many, many battles in his life, decided that time to send his general, Joab, to lead his army against the Ammonites. Meanwhile, back at home, David was resting, taking an afternoon nap, and then, walking on his roof. He looked over and saw a very beautiful woman taking a bath. 2 Samuel 11:1-5: 1The following spring, at the time of the year when kings usually go to war, David sent out Joab with his officers and the Israelite army; they defeated the Ammonites and besieged the city of Rabbah.

Because of the drama’s great Korean identity, the drama normalizes troop success in Korea and other parts of East Asia, deployments by circumventing traditional and its immediate entry into political discourse narratives for legitimation.

As of November, the market share for Korean films in the domestic market stood at 55 percent, which indicates that the yearly market share of Korean films will be over 50 percent for the third year in a row. In the international arena as well, Korean films were invited to major international film festivals including Cannes, Berlin, Venice, Locarno, and San Sebastian and received a warm reception from critics and audiences. It is often said that the current prosperity of Korean cinema is due to the strong commitment and policies introduced by the KIM Dae-joong government in 1999 to promote Korean films.

  • The Globalization of K-Pop: the Interplay of External and Internal Forces
    THE GLOBALIZATION OF K-POP: THE INTERPLAY OF EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FORCES Master Thesis presented by Hiu Yan Kong Furtwangen University MBA WS14/16 Matriculation Number 249536 May, 2016 Sworn Statement I hereby solemnly declare on my oath that the work presented has been carried out by me alone without any form of illicit assistance. All sources used have been fully quoted. (Signature, Date) Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic analysis about the growing popularity of Korean pop music (K-pop) worldwide in recent years. On one hand, the international expansion of K-pop can be understood as a result of the strategic planning and business execution that are created and carried out by the entertainment agencies. On the other hand, external circumstances such as the rise of social media also create a wide array of opportunities for K-pop to broaden its global appeal. The research explores the ways how the interplay between external circumstances and organizational strategies has jointly contributed to the global circulation of K-pop. The research starts with providing a general descriptive overview of K-pop. Following that, quantitative methods are applied to measure and assess the international recognition and global spread of K-pop. Next, a systematic approach is used to identify and analyze factors and forces that have important influences and implications on K-pop’s globalization. The analysis is carried out based on three levels of business environment which are macro, operating, and internal level. PEST analysis is applied to identify critical macro-environmental factors including political, economic, socio-cultural, and technological.

  • Western Criticism, Labelling Practice and Self-Orientalised East Asian Films
    Travelling Films: Western Criticism, Labelling Practice and Self-Orientalised East Asian Films Goldsmiths College University of London PhD thesis (Cultural Studies) Ji Yeon Lee Abstract This thesis analyses western criticism, labelling practices and the politics of European international film festivals. In particular, this thesis focuses on the impact of western criticism on East Asian films as they attempt to travel to the west and when they travel back to their home countries. This thesis draws on the critical arguments by Edward Said's Orientalism: Western Conceptions of the Orient (1978) and self-Orientalism, as articulated by Rey Chow, which is developed upon Mary Louise Pratt's conceptual tools such as 'contact zone' and 'autoethnography'. This thesis deals with three East Asian directors: Kitano Takeshi (Japanese director), Zhang Yimou (Chinese director) and 1m Kwon-Taek (Korean director). Dealing with Japanese, Chinese and Korean cinema is designed to show different historical and cultural configurations in which each cinema draws western attention. This thesis also illuminates different ways each cinema is appropriated and articulated in the west. This thesis scrutinises how three directors from the region have responded to this Orientalist discourse and investigates the unequal power relationship that controls the international circulation of films. Each director's response largely depends on the particular national and historical contexts of each country and each national cinema. The processes that characterise films' travelling are interrelated: the western conception of Japanese, Chinese or Korean cinema draws upon western Orientalism, but is at the same time corroborated by directors' responses. Through self-Orientalism, these directors, as 'Orientals', participate in forming and confirming the premises of western Orientalism.

  • The Problem of China in the Study of the History of Korean Science: Korean Science, Chinese Science, and East Asian Science*
    chapter 12 The Problem of China in the Study of the History of Korean Science: Korean Science, Chinese Science, and East Asian Science* Because of the Chinese origin of many ideas and artifacts of traditional Korean science, and the overwhelming Chinese influence on its development, the his- tory of Korean science suffers from a kind of identity crisis, based on the issue of whether traditional Korean science should be considered simply a part of Chinese science. Jeon Sang-woon, for example, begins his account of tradi- tional Korean science by referring to its history as “a tributary of the main- stream of scientific developments in traditional China.”1 But Jeon quickly adds that Koreans did not merely adopt ideas and techniques from China, but modi- fied them and adapted them to their own needs and conditions. This led to many ‘independent’ developments of Korean science, and often to new discov- eries and inventions. Much of the previous work – and indeed most of the early works by modern scholars – on traditional Korean science have focused on the new contributions by Koreans and their differences from the Chinese developments.2 Yet this raises a problem, which has been troubling me when I attempt to think in general terms about the history of traditional Korean science. The problem, which I call “the problem of China in the study of the history of Korean science,” is basically about the significance of the scientific ideas and technical artifacts from China that are apparently pervasive throughout tradi- tional Korean science and technology.3 What roles and meanings should be assigned to such ideas and techniques in the history of Korean science? Would it be reasonable, or permissible, for a historian of Korean science to neglect * Originally published as “The ‘Problem of China’ in the Study of the History of Korean Science: Korean Science, Chinese Science, and East Asian Science,” Disquisitions on the Past and Present, no.
