Expanded Course Description
| This course is a survey of Korean national cinema, from the earliest days of the medium to the present. It covers a range of issues that have come to define the concept of Korean national cinema. Some of the questions addressed in the course include the following;
-In what ways has modern Korean history shaped and complicated the notions of nation, nationalism, and national cinema?
-What elements, themes or innovations of Korean film inform or disrupt the category of national identity?
-How is "Korean-ness" represented, reassured, questioned or challenged in Korean film?
-How does Korean cinema negotiate and define gender, sexual, and class identities?
-Who are the major "authors" and audiences of particular periods?
By looking into these questions, this course will not only serve as an introduction to Korean cinema, but more importantly as an in-depth case study that challenges and expands the discussions of national cinema. All of the films will be screened with English subtitles. No specific knowledge of Korea/Korean or prerequisite is required.
This course is designed to satisfy the Arts and Letters Group requirement. In addition to introducing students to modern Korean history, culture and society through engagement with film as a visual medium, this class also introduces students to a basic vocabulary in film, visual, cultural, and East Asian studies disciplines and teaches them how to apply their new knowledge and analytic skills to come to a deeper understanding of film as a cultural artifact. The course teaches students a variety of modes of inquiry—through close textual analysis, film journals, interpretive question assignments, and tests. These modes of inquiry will help students develop their critical thinking and writing skills.
