Dear Hyun Kyong:<div>It seems that for the first piece you may be looking for an article I published in the<i> Journal of Asian Studies:</i></div><div><i> </i>"Carving Out Space: Civil Society and the Women's Movement in South Korea" 61:2(May 2002): 473-500. This article discusses the film in the context of analyzing the postcolonial condition and the revival of "tradition."</div>
<div><br></div><div>For the second piece about preening, you seem to look for chapter 2 Nationalism and Construction of Gender in Korea written by Chungmoo Choi in <i>Dangerous Women: Gender & Korean Nationalism</i> (Routledge 1997). This book chapter also has discussion of the film in a somewhat different context as well.</div>

Hello,<br>
My name is Hyun Kyong Chang, and I'm a Musicology graduate student in UCLA. I heard about this list from a Korean Studies professor at UCLA.<br>
I was wondering if could post a query about two readings that I have done several years ago but that I cannot recall now. I am really hoping to retrieve information on these articles. I wrote up my query below.<br>
I would very much appreciate it, and I would also appreciate it if you could put me on the list itself. Thank you very much<br>
<br>
My query:<br>
<br>
Dear list members,<br>
<br>
I'm trying to retrieve information on two readings I did years ago but that I have had trouble finding now. I don't remember enough details from the readings to be able to search them, and hope my description below strikes a chord. Your help will be very much appreciated.<br>
<br>
<br>
The first of these is an article (I believe, a journal article, although I could be wrong) on Im Kwon Taek's Seopyeonje. It's a critical piece that touched on issues of nationalism and gender entailed by the film.<br>
<br>
<br>
The second one is either a book chapter or article on U.S. military presence in post-Korean War South Korea, and (if I remember correctly) it starts with a Korean woman instinctively straightening her attire when she spots an U.S. serviceman.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank!<br>
<br>
Hyun Kyong Chang<br>

Students campaign for Korean studies at Yale<br>
By Kim Jae-won<br>
<br>
A group of students at Yale University are campaigning to establish a<br>
Korean studies program there.<br>
<br>
?We petition the Yale administration to establish a Korean studies program<br>
built on a Korean concentration within the East Asian Studies major,? said<br>
the board launched by the Korean Studies Initiative at Yale, an association<br>
of Korean students which promotes academic research and activities on the<br>
country.<br>
<br>
The petition says that Korean studies is an indispensable asset considering<br>
the increasing role that Korea plays at the global level as well as a key<br>
region for understanding East Asia as a whole.<br>
<br>
Currently, the American university offers Chinese and Japanese studies<br>
programs only under its East Asian Studies major.<br>
<br>
The petition said that it is a ?shame? that Yale neglects such a relevant<br>
academic field because other prestigious U.S. colleges, such as Harvard,<br>
Columbia and Berkeley, are provide Korean studies programs with abundant<br>
academic resources.<br>
<br>
However, the college administration is reluctant to offer an academic<br>
program on the country due to financial reasons.<br>
<br>
Yale Daily News reported earlier this month that despite the importance of<br>
these academic concerns, budgetary issues will ultimately determine whether<br>
Yale creates a Korean studies concentration in the near future, quoting<br>
Edward Kamens, chair of the Department of East Asian Languages and<br>
Literatures.<br>
<br>
?In order for the teaching of and study of East Asia as a culture to be<br>
complete, we should at the very least add two ladder faculty position that<br>
would focus on Korea. We currently have none,? Kamens was quoted as saying<br>
by the college daily.<br>
<br>
As Yale lacks a Korean Studies program, students who seek to study the East<br>
Asian country further have often pursued graduate studies at peer<br>
institutions with capable programs on Korea, the petition said.<br>
<br>
To prevent such cases, it urged the college?s administration to secure a<br>
tenure track professorship that focuses on Korea, and more classes in the<br>
area of Korean Studies.<br>
<br>
The petition titled ?Establish Korean Studies at Yale? drew more than 200<br>
signatures so far since its launch earlier this month. The association<br>
plans to get signatures offline later this month to spread the movement.<br>
<br>
The petition said that there has been student demand for a Korean studies<br>
program for the last 20 years. Enrollment has steadily increased in Korean<br>
language classes, and current students have expressed a desire to major in<br>
Korean Studies if available, it added.<br>

I think the second reading, "a book chapter or article on U.S. military presence in post-Korean War<br>
South Korea" which "starts with a Korean woman instinctively straightening her attire when she spots an U.S.<br>
serviceman" is likely the second chapter of the book "Dangerous Women: Gender and Korean Nationalism" titled "Nationalism and Construction of Gender in Korea" by Chungmoo Choi.<br>
<br>

<br>
I hope that's helpful,<br>
