Not an organizer, but I note no reference whatsoever to "Korean military bases" in Myanmar, only "Korean feminist art" at (nationality unspecified) military bases. I assumed that this was a case of Korean artists exploring circumstances in other countries
- not particularly unusual; I myself am a Canadian of German/Englisg extraction known to comment on Choson Korea, after all. But I am most willing to be corrected.</div>

<div class="PlainText">Hello All, but especially the organizers of this Kyujanggak event:<br>
<br>
I am somewhat irritated by the title. Can you kindly explain what maybe <br>
meant? Korea has military bases in todays Myanmar? I believe not so. Or <br>
is this about historic Japanese-occupied Burma, with Koreans soldiers <br>
and officers there. But there were no female Korean soldiers amongst <br>
them (doing what feminist art)? How are we to understand this riddle?<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
Frank<br>
