[KS] Querry: specialists in Korean cinema

[Stephen Epstein]

Rick,

Yes, not sure if it's specifically people who are relatively close 
for conference/seminar invitations you're seeking, but there are lots 
of scholars working in English in Korean film in addition to those 
who have been mentioned thus far.  Among specialists who now are in, 
are from, or have worked in North America are (and forgive me if I 
have current locations wrong):

Aaron Magnan-Park, University of Notre Dame
Brian Yecies, University of Wollongong
Hye-Seung Chung, University of Michigan
Chris Berry, University of London (Goldsmiths College)

You may also wish to check out the following recent anthologies, 
which will give you leads on several more, including Koreanists who 
specialise in other disciplines but occasionally write on film:
