SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Korea Week | Korean Food: Culture\, Politics\, and Identities
DESCRIPTION:Korean food is having a moment–one that's been decades in the making. Dr. Rory Walsh explores what Korean food is\, how it got that way\, and how it's changing under our noses. From Ann Arbor to Seoul\, this talk explores what food has to do with tradition\, identity\, international politics\, ancient history\, family\, self\, and\, of course\, the deceptively complicated concept of authenticity.\n\nRory Walsh has been studying the anthropology of Korea since 2012\, and has eaten her way across the peninsula (and Jeju!). She has written extensively on Korean archaeology and hosts the UM Nam Center for Korean Studies' podcast\, \"Korea in Maize and Blue: How Did You Get Here?\"\, interviewing Korean scholars and other professionals across disciplines.\n\nThis event is part of Korea Week\, and is held in partnership with the Ann Arbor District Library and the Korean Cultural Center of Washington D.C. For more information\, visit https://myumi.ch/9JJ4g.\n\n*If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.*
