Dear F<span style="color: rgb(20, 24, 35); font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">riends and Colleagues of Professor Nancy Abelmann,</span></p>
<p style="margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 0px; color: rgb(20, 24, 35); font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">

<span style="line-height: 19.32px;">I know many of you might be still in shock to digest the sad news of the passing of our beloved friend, colleague, and mentor Nancy Abelmann at the University of Urbana-Champaign. Some of you saw the following through other
media or earlier emails already, and due to the rich content Nancy put in this interview sharing about her encounter with Korea, Koreans, Korean and Korean American Studies, I am sharing this video with you who are members of this email list. </span><span style="line-height: 19.32px;">My
old friend PD/Announcer Won J Park at News Magazine in Chicago interviewed her </span><span style="line-height: 19.32px;">about her work and life in Korean on March 2, 2010. It is one of the rare media interviews Nancy gave in her beautiful Korean. Also attached
is the obituary from the local newspaper. </span></p>
<p style="margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 0px; color: rgb(20, 24, 35); font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">
<span style="line-height: 19.32px;">I was grateful that I was able to mourn and grieve for Nancy with her loving family, relatives, and friends in town (the last shiva service in town tonight) through which I was very much comforted and relieved. She was much
more than my<span style="color: rgb(20, 24, 35); font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;"> grad school day instructor in the last century but was </span><span style="color: rgb(20, 24, 35); font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">my
intellectual and personal mentor, neighbor, and friend as she has been to many many around the world. </span>I believe the light she had in her and through her rich work across many disciplines and fields will continue to shine </span><span style="line-height: 19.32px;">through
many of us in Korean Studies all over the globe in the years to come.</span></p>
