  • The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011
    The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011 by Sunyoung Yang A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Anthropology University of Toronto © Copyright by Sunyoung Yang Year of 2015 The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011 Sunyoung Yang Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology University of Toronto 2015 Abstract In this dissertation I will shed light on the interwoven process between Internet development and neoliberalization in South Korea, and I will also examine the formation of new subjectivities of Internet users who are also becoming neoliberal subjects. In particular, I examine the culture of the South Korean Internet freak community of DCinside.com and the phenomenon I have dubbed “loser aesthetics.” Throughout the dissertation, I elaborate on the meaning-making process of self-reflexive mockery including the labels “Internet freak” and “surplus (human)” and gender politics based on sexuality focusing on gender ambiguous characters, called Nunhwa, as a means of collective identity-making, and I explore the exploitation of unpaid immaterial labor through a collective project making a review book of a TV drama Painter of the Wind. The youth of South Korea emerge as the backbone of these creative endeavors as they try to find their place in a precarious labor market that has changed so rapidly since the 1990s that only the very best succeed, leaving a large group of disenfranchised and disillusioned youth. I go on to explore the impact of late industrialization and the Asian financial crisis, and the nationalistic desire not be left behind in the age of informatization, but to be ahead of the curve.

McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT KIM, SE YOUNG, M.A., June 2010, Film A Sociohistorical Contextual Analysis of the Use of Violence in Park Chan-wook's Vengeance Trilogy (90 pp.) Director of Thesis: Louis-Georges Schwartz This article situates the three films of Park Chan-wook’s, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance (2002), Oldboy (2003), and Sympathy for Lady Vengeance (2005) within recent South Korean history and offers a historicized analysis of the films’ substantial use of violence. Through contextual analysis that looks to the films as well as the history and society that produced them, this article discovers that the violence is an allegorical tool which serves to convey social commentary pointed at the processes of democratization and capitalism in South Korea.

  • Ecstatic Space NEO-KUT and Shamanic Technologies
    Ecstatic Space NEO-KUT and Shamanic Technologies A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Haein Song Department of Arts and Humanities College of Business, Arts and Social Sciences Brunel University, London May 2018 Abstract The present thesis formulates an approach towards ecstatic space in the context of a combined performance of kut, a Korean shamanic performance ritual, and digital practices. Here, the coined term, ecstatic space, is not confined to the mental state or spiritual sphere of shamans in a trance but indicates an alternative and metaphoric environment mediatised by ecstatic technology – a vehicle for conjuring the mythical worlds of kut via shamanic media including divine objects, dancing and singing rituals. This research also adopts digital technology, a modern approach for accessing imaginary virtual space through digital media, especially technical images – the technologically produced and programmed/computational images. Ecstatic space enables the creation of interstitial and fecund space situated between performer/audience reality and imaginary spheres, representing the technological aesthetics in- between kut and digital performance. This enabling is theoretically and historically grounded in media and performance/ritual frameworks that are explored in the early chapters of the thesis. Ecstatic space contextualises through the careful exposition of Korean scholarship on kut, and shamanic performance rituals read and interpreted alongside international performance/cultural studies and media theories including Vilém Flusser, Marshall McLuhan, Guy Debord, Roy Ascott and others. My methodologies of creating ecstatic space are formulated by investigating the artistic potential of an interpenetrative relationship between these two technologies. The five core SUI (Shamanic User Interface) designs of kut are identified to outline an embodied understanding of the ecstatic technology.

I have the greatest respect for Arthur Kleinman for his academic rigorousness. His classes were intellectually insightful and resolute with political engagement. His commitment to academic integrity taught me to become a better anthropologist. I express my deepest gratitude to Byron Good, for his classes as well as many hours of our personal conversations.

  • Tales of Cinema: the Films of Hong Sang-Soo,’ a Complete Retrospective of the South Korean Director
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ‘TALES OF CINEMA: THE FILMS OF HONG SANG-SOO,’ A COMPLETE RETROSPECTIVE OF THE SOUTH KOREAN DIRECTOR Sixteen features including the director’s earliest works The Day a Pig Fell into the Well and The Virgin Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, through recent films Hill of Freedom and Nobody’s Daughter Haewon and others, many of which never received a U.S. release June 3–19, 2016, at Museum of the Moving Image PRESS SCREENING, TUESDAY, MAY 31, AT 10:30 A.M.: NOBODY’S DAUGHTER HAEWON (90 MINS, DCP) AND HILL OF FREEDOM (66 MINS, DCP) Astoria, Queens, NY, May 27, 2016—Museum of the Moving Image is pleased to present a long overdue complete New York retrospective of Hong Sang-soo, one of contemporary cinema’s most distinctive filmmakers with an oeuvre characterized by an unending fascination with the complexity of romantic longing, a playful subversion of narrative structure, and a layered approach to emotional revelation. The series, Tales of Cinema: The Films of Hong Sang-soo, runs June 3 through 19, 2016, and will include all of Hong’s films, sixteen features and two short works, dating from 1996 through 2014, many of which only screened in the United States at film festivals. The retrospective coincides with the theatrical release of Hong’s latest film, Right Now, Wrong Then, which opens on June 24, from Grasshopper Films. The films of Hong Sang-soo are at once deceptively simple and dense with subtle shades of meaning. Hong is often compared to legendary French filmmakers Éric Rohmer—for his extended dialogue scenes and his acute moral vision—and Alain Resnais—for his abiding fascination with the function (or malfunction) of memory and the structure of storytelling.
