Hello everyone,

Recently, the American Geographical Society Library at the University of 
Wisconsin Milwaukee held a symposium on Kim Jeongho and his 1861 map the 
Daedong yeojido. I sent announcements to this list about that event 
(details here: http://www4.uwm.edu/libraries/AGSL/korean_maps.cfm ) and 
I am pleased now to send the link below to the podcast of the 
presentations that day.
