She not only guided me with constructive criticism, but challenged me to think about the value of my research and continuously asked me why I found my research interesting which, looking back, was a crucial question and a source of motivation. Her guidance, deep understanding and generosity were critical to my research and for that, I cannot thank her enough. Thank you very much to my advisor Dr. Liliana Janik for her encouragement and her straightforward comments. I would also like to thank Dr. Dacia Viejo-Rose for organising the ‘Heritage and Dictatorship’ workshop which allowed me to think about my research question in various different angles. I cannot forget to thank Dr. Francesco Iacono for his invaluable comments on my opening chapter. A very big thank you to Dr. Hyun Kyung Lee for supporting me from day one of my PhD and also for providing me with feedback on my work – she got me through some challenging times and I am truly grateful for her kindness. I received a substantial amount of help during fieldwork and I would like to use this opportunity to express my gratitude. Thank you to Prof. Han Hong Koo who took the time to teach me how to find online archival sources and furthermore answered many questions I had concerning the ‘insider’ history of South Korea. To my cousin, Sungbong Jin: on a blazing hot summer day, he went with me to the Honam region and helped me take photographs of my case study sites and also came with me to the institutions to help me collect data. I am truly indebted to his time and his wholehearted support. Fieldwork for this research was generously funded by the Department of Archaeology and Anthropology, The Dorothy Garrod Research Grant and also Jesus College – a huge thank you! Last but certainly not least, I would like to thank my family. To my father who is my greatest hero – I am in awe of his unconditional love and I am especially thankful for his contributions to my research. A massive thank you to my incredible mother: ‘thank you’ is an understatement. My utmost appreciation and respect to my sister Minhye who painstakingly read through my work multiple times and a nod to my younger brother for at least pretending to be interested in my research. Thank you also to the staff at Tongdokwon for their tremendous understanding and incredible support. 3 Table of Contents Declaration ............................................................................................................................... 2 Acknowledgement ................................................................................................................... 3 Contents ................................................................................................................................... 4 List of Figures ........................................................................................................................ 10 List of Tables .......................................................................................................................... 13 Abbreviations ......................................................................................................................... 14 Abstract .................................................................................................................................. 15 Chapter 1 – Introduction ..................................................................................... 16 1.1. ‘Heritage’ and ‘Territories’ during dictatorship ........................................................ 16 1.2.

  • Jagalchi Market Gukje Market

    Jagalchi Market Gukje Market

    TWO NIGHTS/THREE DAYS TOURS Option B: Jagalchi Market Jagalchi Market, located on the shoreside road in Busan's Jung-gu, is Korea's largest seafood market, selling both live and dried fish. After the Korean War the market solidified itself as a fish market. Most of the people who sell fish are women, so the vendors here are called Jagalchi Ajumma, "ajumma" meaning middle-aged or married woman in Korean. This market represents Busan and is famous throughout the country. If you visit, you can eat fresh raw fish right at the market. Even these days you can see women selling mackerel, sea squirts (ascidians) and whale meat on wooden boxes along the road outside of the market and along the shore. Every year in October the Jagalchi Cultural Tourism Festival is held, and it is easy to visit because of the convenient transportation provided by subway. Jagalchi Market is where you can see the lifestyle of the Busan locals. Gukje Market Following the Korean War, refugees who fled to Busan set up stalls in order to make a living, and this was the beginning of the Gukje Market (gukje meaning "international" in Korean). The Gukje Market is one of Korea’s largest markets; each alleyway is crowded with stalls, and it connects to Bupyeong Market, Kkangtong Market, and other smaller markets. The market stocks such a wide variety of goods, that you can find almost everything you need right here. Busan Gamcheon Culture Village Gamcheon Culture Villiage is formed by houses built in staircase-fashion on the foothills of a coastal mountain, earning this village the nickname of "Machu Picchu of Busan." The many alleys cutting through this community are vibrantly decorated with murals and sculptures created by the residents.

    ESSAYS ON BUSINESS GROUPS AND THE JUDICIARY IN SOUTH KOREA by Hansoo Choi B.A. in Economics, Seoul National University, 1996 M.A. in Economics, University of Pittsburgh, 2011 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2014 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Hansoo Choi It was defended on May 6, 2014 and approved by Thomas Rawski, PhD, Professor of Economics Luca Rigotti, PhD, Associate Professor of Economics Werner Troesken, PhD, Professor of Economics Kevin Morrison, PhD, Assistant Professor of GSPIA Dissertation Advisor: Thomas Rawski, PhD, Professor of Economics Luca Rigotti, PhD, Associate Professor of Economics ii ESSAYS ON BUSINESS GROUPS AND THE JUDICIARY IN SOUTH KOREA Hansoo Choi, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2014 Copyright © by Hansoo Choi 2014 iii ESSAYS ON BUSINESS GROUPS AND THE JUDICIARY IN SOUTH KOREA Hansoo Choi, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2014 The first chapter explores how the size of a corporation undermines a court’s willingness to mete out tough sentences to corporate criminals, employing a unique dataset of Korean white- collar offenders. I find that the Korean judiciary displays a strong bias towards chaebols, family business groups: the likelihood that convicted chaebol-related defendants receive suspended jail sentences rises compared to that of convicted non-chaebol counterparts. The finding further shows that a greater bias can be observed for the top 10 business groups than for any of the lower ranking chaebols.

The Commission, launched in December 2005, has strived to reveal the truth behind massacres during the Korean War, human rights abuses during the authoritarian rule, the anti-Japanese independence movement, and the history of overseas Koreans. It is not an easy task to seek the truth in past cases where the facts have been hidden and distorted for decades.

Trials and Victory 206 Book 2. - The Birth of True Parents Ever since the Fall of the first human ancestors Adam and Eve, God wanted to complete the providence of salvation. He wanted to complete it through Jesus, whom He sent as the Messiah; however, the people of Israel and the religion of Judaism failed to fulfill their responsibility to receive him. Hence, God again sent a Savior to humankind, this time among the Korean people. The True Parents have come with this mission. Because the True Parents came to take charge of God's providence of salvation, their births were events of great significance. Accordingly, many signs accompanied their births. For instance, there was an old tree standing in front of True Father's birthplace. Shortly before he was born a golden bird flew into that tree, sang beautifully, and then left. Also before the birth of True Mother, Hong Soon-ae, True Mother's mother, received a message in a dream, "If you have a son, he will become the king of the universe; if you have a daughter, she will become the queen of the universe." On April 17, 1935, at the age of 16 (by Korean counting), True Father was tearfully praying on a mountainside when Jesus called him to complete the mission of the Messiah.

  • Korean Sovereignty Over Dokdo - Facts and Evidence

    Korean Sovereignty Over Dokdo - Facts and Evidence

    Part II: Korean Sovereignty over Dokdo - Facts and Evidence 1. When Did Dokdo Become a Part of Korean Territory? Korean title to Dokdo dates back to the 6th century. According to the records of Samguk Sagi -(History of the Three Kingdoms), Korean sovereignty over the island was established with the incorporation of Usanguk -(“guk” means “state”) into the Kingdom of Silla, one of the three ancient kingdoms of Korea, in 512 A.D. Samguk Sagi records that in 512 A.D., Yi Sa-bu, a Silla government official, subjugated the island state on behalf of Silla. The territory of Usanguk comprised the islands of Ulleungdo and Usando -(present-day Dokdo). Historical facts surrounding this event and the establishment of Korean title to Dokdo are further buttressed by medieval Korean records: Sejong Sillok Jiriji -(Geographical Appendix to the Annals of King Sejong) and Sinjeung Dongguk Yeoji Seungnam -(Revised and Augmented Version of the Survey of the National Geography of Korea), published in 1454 and 1531 respectively. Within the two official records marking sovereign limits of the Kingdom of Joseon, Dokdo was clearly marked as belonging to Gangwon Province, one of eight provinces of the medieval Korean kingdom. It is particularly worth noting that Sinjeung Dongguk Yeoji Seungnam appends Paldo Chongdo -(Map of Eight Provinces of Korea) and Gangwondo Jido -(Map of Gangwon Province), both of which mark Ulleungdo and Dokdo as belonging to Korea’s Gangwon Province. The variety of Korean documentary and cartographical evidence naturally leads to questions to what, if any, kind of materials the Japanese have presented in challenging Korean ownership of Dokdo.
