It is set in 2022. The story attempts to braid together a few concerns in the works of Hong Sangsoo that encompass the possibility of nondualistic relations: between authenticity and falsity, between humility and vanity, and between cultivation and resolute action. <br><br>Preceding this reading of a story entitled “Wither in Hong Sangsoo” is a 21-minute video essay called “Weather in Hong Sangsoo.” “Weather in Hong Sangsoo” is a compilation film that collages footage from films Hong has thus far directed in a career that spans over the past 15 years—one that began with his debut film, “The Day a Pig Fell into the Well” (1996), and continues most recently with “In Another Country” (2012). The video essay foregrounds cryptic themes found in Hong Sangsoo’s films, such as weather, trees, and the unseen, and argues that they are constant forces of passion, renewal, and even transmigration in Hong’s work. <br><br>Kyung Hyun Kim is Professor of East Asian Languages and Literatures and Director of Critical Theory Emphasis at UC Irvine. He is the author of "The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema" [Duke University Press, 2004] and "Virtual Hallyu: Korean Cinema of the Global Era" [Duke University Press, 2011].<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#4D5963'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Event Contact: </span><a href="mailto:cks@berkeley.edu"><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>cks@berkeley.edu</span></a><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#4D5963'>, </span><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>510-642-5674<span style='color:#4D5963'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>__________________________________________________________________________________________<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Law and/or Justice in Island Disputes in East Asia<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Colloquium: Center for Chinese Studies: Center for Korean Studies: Center for Japanese Studies: Institute of East Asian Studies | <b>February 11 | 4-6 p.m.</b> |<span style='color:#4D5963'> <a href="http://www.berkeley.edu/map/3dmap/3dmap.shtml?athletic"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Institute of East Asian Studies (2223 Fulton, 6th Floor)</span></a>, </span>IEAS Conference Room<span style='color:#4D5963'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#4D5963'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Speaker: <span style='color:#4D5963'><a href="http://www.aiu.ac.jp/en/faculty/profile02.html"><b><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Tetsuya Toyoda</span></b></a>, </span>Associate Professor, International Law, Akita International University<span style='color:#4D5963'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Sponsors: <span style='color:#4D5963'><a href="http://ieas.berkeley.edu/"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Institute of East Asian Studies (IEAS)</span></a>, <a href="http://ieas.berkeley.edu/"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Center for Japanese Studies (CJS)</span></a>, <a href="http://ieas.berkeley.edu/cks/"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Center for Korean Studies (CKS)</span></a>, <a href="http://ieas.berkeley.edu/ccs/"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Center for Chinese Studies (CCS)</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#4D5963'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>The remaining three major territorial disputes in East Asia are over small islands: the Dokdo/Takeshima dispute between the Republic of Korea (and DPRK) and Japan, the Senkaku/Diaoyutai dispute between Japan and China (and Taiwan), and the Paracel and Spratly dispute between China (and Taiwan), Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei, and the Philippines. With the rise of nationalism in East Asia, disputes over these islands have become serious impediments to regional cooperation.

Drawing on ongoing research on the migration careers, legalization strategies, and conversion patterns of ethnic Korean migrants from China to the United States, the speaker shows that asylum-seeking is a contingent, temporally unfolding, and essentially an interactive process, guided not by long-term planning, but by everyday pragmatism, shifting state policies, and various middlemen informing migrants’ perception of these policies. Kim also shows how religious institutions -- which have developed distinctive understandings of the nation, the community of faith, and divine justice -- get involved in, respond to, channel, and give meanings to this particular legalization strategy, and how the newly acquired religious identity reshapes these migrants’ “cartography of belonging,” through which they make sense of their place in the local society, in the states of origin and residence, and in the transnational community of faith.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Event Contact: <span style='color:#4D5963'><a href="mailto:cks@berkeley.edu"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>cks@berkeley.edu</span></a>, </span>510-642-5674<span style='color:#4D5963'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>______________________________________________________________________________________________<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#4D5963'><img border=0 width=229 height=161 id="Picture_x0020_4" src="cid:image003.jpg@01CDFECE.77530520" alt="http://events.berkeley.edu/images/user_uploads/0_joshweb.jpg"></span><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Introducing Hearts of Pine: Songs in the Lives of Three Korean Survivors of the Japanese "Comfort Women"<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Colloquium: Center for Korean Studies: Institute of East Asian Studies | <b>February 19 | 4 p.m.</b> <span style='color:#4D5963'>| <a href="http://www.berkeley.edu/map/3dmap/3dmap.shtml?athletic"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Institute of East Asian Studies (2223 Fulton, 6th Floor)</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#4D5963'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Speaker: <span style='color:#4D5963'><a href="http://individual.utoronto.ca/kippen/Ethnomusicology/faculty.html"><b><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Joshua Pilzer</span></b></a>, </span>Assistant Professor of Ethnomusicology, University of Toronto<span style='color:#4D5963'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Sponsor: <span style='color:#4D5963'><a href="http://ieas.berkeley.edu/cks/"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Center for Korean Studies (CKS)</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#4D5963'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>In this presentation ethnomusicologist Josh Pilzer introduces the book that has resulted from his ten-year project on musical lives of South Korean survivors of the ‘comfort women’ system. During the long era of public secrecy about Japanese military sexual slavery, Korean survivors made use of veiled expressive forms such as song to reckon with their experiences and forge social selves without exposing their already opaquely public secrets. In the era of the “comfort women grandmothers” protest movement, which began in the early 1990s, the women became star witnesses and super-symbols of South Korea’s colonial victimization at the hands of Japan; and the new normative constraints of this role compelled the women to continue to express taboo sentiments and continue the work of self-making behind the veils of song, often in the most public of places. The women’s songs are thus simultaneously records of traumatic experiences; transcripts of struggles to overcome traumatic memory and achieve different kinds of cultural membership; performances of traumatic experience for an expectant public; and works of art that stretch beyond the horizons of traumatic experience and even those of Korean cultural identity. <br><br>Speaker Biography<br><br>Joshua D. Pilzer (PhD University of Chicago 2006) is an ethnomusicologist of Korean and Japanese music. His current research concerns the place of music in the texture of post-colonial Korean life, music’s social utility and social poetics, and music as alternative history. He is interested in particular in the relationships between music, survival, traumatic experience, marginalization, socialization, public culture, and identity. He is the author of Hearts of Pine (Oxford University Press, 2012). Pilzer has published articles in Ethnomusicology, Dongyang Umak Yeonggu, and The Courtesan's Arts: Cross-Cultural Perspectives (New York: Oxford University Press, 2006), and has forthcoming articles in The Oxford Handbook of Applied Ethnomusicology and Music and War. He is currently conducting fieldwork for his next book project, an ethnography of music and song among Korean victims of the atomic bombing of Japan and their children in Hapcheon, “Korea’s Hiroshima.”<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#4D5963'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Event Contact: <span style='color:#4D5963'><a href="mailto:cks@berkeley.edu"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>cks@berkeley.edu</span></a>, </span>510-642-5674<span style='color:#4D5963'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>_________________________________________________________________________________________<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#4D5963'><img border=0 width=162 height=200 id="Picture_x0020_5" src="cid:image005.jpg@01CDFECA.45851190" alt="http://events.berkeley.edu/images/user_uploads/0_Moonweb.jpg"></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Balancing, Bandwagoning, or Standing Alone?: China's Rise and the Future of the Korean Peninsula<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Colloquium: Center for Chinese Studies: Center for Korean Studies: Institute of East Asian Studies | <b>February 27 | 12 p.m.</b> | 223 <span style='color:#4D5963'><a href="http://www.berkeley.edu/map/3dmap/3dmap.shtml?moses"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Moses Hall</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#4D5963'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Speaker: <span style='color:#4D5963'><a href="http://www.cimoon.net/index.html"><b><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Chung-in Moon</span></b></a>, </span>Professor of Political Science, Yonsei University<span style='color:#4D5963'><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Sponsor: <span style='color:#4D5963'><a href="http://ieas.berkeley.edu/cks/"><span style='color:#03959C;text-decoration:none'>Center for Korean Studies (CKS)</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#4D5963'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>What is South Korea’s perception of China’s rise?
