In this paper, I examine the history of the Republic of Korea (ROK) Army Motion Picture Production Center, which was an important pillar of the Korean film industry from the 1950s and 1970s. 1 During this time, the Army Motion Picture Production Center was South Korea’s official film production company, along with the National Film Production Center, and produced various news reels, culture (munhwa) films, and fiction films. Starting with the first Korean War documentary films An Assault of Justice (1951) and National Defense News (1952), the Army Motion Picture Production Center produced an average of over 100 films every year, including numerous educational short films and feature-length fiction

With the arrival of the imperialist Western powers in Asia and the eventual opening of Korea in 1875-76 by neighboring Japan, Korea was compelled to find and to establish a new foundation of its state and identity as an independent and emancipated nation outside of the until-then prevalent Sinocentric world order, and within a new Eurocentric international community. This was necessary to avoid the calamity of colonization, which befell many other non-Western nations. At that time, China found itself in a semi-colonized situation. Many Korean intellectuals therefore considered Japan, with its methods of modernization and successful stand against the West, as a model for Korea.

Religion and science, the two great man-made cultural legacies on earth, have maintained a complicated and delicate relationship. Late nineteenth-century books that addressed the relationship between the two reflect extreme rationalism of the time and are focused on the conflict between them. Some of the major literature was written by William Edward Hartpole Lecky (1865), John William Draper (1875), and Andrew Dickson White (1896). 1 Bertrand Russell‘s Religion and Science (1935), published in the early twentieth century, also belongs to this category. 2 However, the research conducted by historians and philosophers of science

Many things have changed in Korea since the Korean War. Yet the most visible representation of its evolution has been the extensive homogenization of its residential spaces. The country‟s horizon is dominated by high-rise apartment blocks that push into the skyline through all of its cities, towns and suburbs and many of its rural spaces. Today, almost 60% of residents in Korea live in apartment towers. 1 The symbol of the contemporary Korean dream, the high-rise apartment has supplanted traditional residential spaces, while at the same time fostering a new culture more in tune with the individualistic mindset that has become more pronounced in today‟s Korean society. Modern Korean films, especially contemporary thrillers, have latched onto the unique architectural and thematic potential of the modern Korean apartment.

Charles R. Kim’s Youth for Nation represents an impressive effort to trace the evolution of South Korean ideology from 1953 to 1964. As the author informs the reader in the beginning of his study, South Korea’s state-backed ideology was but a “version of public discourse supported by power” (p. 14). That is, both the state’s ideology and public discourse shared a common discursive territory, enabling individuals to contest the hegemonial claims of the state in the same language as was employed by the state. In his pursuit of these discursive struggles, Kim isolates two especially poignant manifestations of South Korea’s discourse: “wholesome modernization” and “the student vanguard.” The South Korean state promoted both, paying particular attention to the inculcation of the young generation. Kim thus shows that protesters’ self-rationalization during the 4.19 Revolution in 1960 grew organically out of the state-sponsored discourse that the youth had internalized. Put differently, student protest in the April of 1960 was the specter conjured up by the very regime against which it eventually turned. The author unfolds his argument in a series of six chapters (discussed
查尔斯·r·金(Charles R. Kim)的《青年为国家》(Youth for Nation)一书对追溯1953年至1964年韩国意识形态的演变做出了令人印象深刻的努力。正如作者在他的研究开始时告诉读者的那样，韩国国家支持的意识形态只不过是一种“由权力支持的公共话语”(第14页)。也就是说，国家的意识形态和公共话语共享一个共同的话语领域，使个人能够用国家使用的同一种语言来挑战国家的霸权主张。在他对这些话语斗争的追求中，金分离出韩国话语的两个特别尖锐的表现:“健康的现代化”和“学生先锋”。韩国政府对这两方面都进行了推广，尤其注重对年轻一代的教育。因此，金表明，1960年4.19革命期间抗议者的自我合理化是由年轻人内化的国家支持的话语有机地发展起来的。换句话说，1960年4月的学生抗议活动是由它最终转而反对的那个政权召唤出来的幽灵。作者用六章展开了他的论述

At the time of the Tan‟o festival, men gathered in the outskirts of cities and in the countryside surrounding the cities and villages of Chosŏn (1392-1910). They formed parties, gathered sticks and stones and fought out bloody battles, often leaving some dead or mangled. This was called “stone fighting” (sŏkchŏn) and was an important feature of life in Chosŏn. The practice of sŏkchŏn was remarkably persistent and only ended in the 20th century. There has been little research on the subject of stone fighting. An article by Ch‟oe Tongyŏl, which was published in 1991, discusses some aspects of sŏkchŏn. 1 Even though Ch‟oe‟s article provides an impressive overview on the sources, it was mostly ignored. Its publication in the journal of a provincial university in Wŏnju, where Ch‟oe was an assistant professor at the time, might have been a factor. Another noteworthy exception is the excellent article on the development of stone fighting by

In December 2011 and March 2012, South Korea's Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (currently the Ministry of Education) received a “revision petition” from an organization named “Society for Textbook Revision (STR) 1 .” STR belonged to a Christian foundation called the Korea Association for Creation Research. The two petitions, specifically addressed to the Minister of Education, Science and Technology, were respectively titled “Archaeopteryx is Not a Transitional Species between Reptiles and Birds,” and “The Evolutionary Lineage of the Horse is a Pure Imagination.” STR demanded that the contents pertaining to these subjects should be deleted from high school textbooks.
