Archaeology can offer a long-term perspective on foodways well before writing was invented. How food is procured and prepared impacts environments and our own cultural identities today, and this is no difference in prehistoric times. This talk will engage the audience what Dr. Lee and her team have found on food culture of over 8,000 years in Korea. One of the key questions is how prehistoric communities managed various food resources and constructed sustainable niches over the long term before, during, and after farming began. Examples come from diverse landscapes, including hilly sand dunes on the east coast, alluvial flats along the Nam River, coastal inlets of Busan harbor, and Jeju Island. Food culture flourished well before the recipe was written.

Gyoung-Ah Lee is an archaeologist investigating ancient human-environment interactions and cultural niche construction in prehistoric Asia. Her work deals primarily with the long transition from hunting and gathering to dependence on farming for food, and has been featured in media outlets ranging from scientific journals to NPR. She and her research team secured various funding from the Korean Studies Promotion Service, the Henry Luce Foundation, National Geographic, Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, and more. While focused in Asia, her research spans the globe, and she has led archaeological projects and participated in excavations in Australia, Canada, China, Indonesia, Korea, and Vietnam. Since 2007 she has been based at the University of Oregon, in Eugene, as a member of the faculty of Anthropology.

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.

Nam Center Colloquium Series | The Cost of Belonging: An Ethnography of Solidarity and Mobility in Beijing’s Koreatown (February 8, 2022 4:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/86191 86191-21632073@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, February 8, 2022 4:30pm

Co-sponsored by the Department of Sociology.

In the past ten years, China has rapidly emerged as South Korea’s most important economic partner. With the surge of goods and resources between the two countries, large waves of Korean migrants have opened small ethnic firms in Beijing’s Koreatown, turning a once barren wasteland into one of the largest Korean enclaves in the world. The Cost of Belonging: An Ethnography of Solidarity and Mobility in Beijing’s Koreatown is an in-depth ethnographic study that investigates how Korean Chinese cultural brokers, South Korean entrepreneurs, and South Korean expats negotiate their class and ethnic identities in their everyday lives in the enclave.

The book engages with the growing literature on diasporic Koreans who have started to form stronger transnational ties with South Korea following the government’s efforts to build a more global Korean polity as a strategy to galvanize its faltering economy in the late 1990s. It diverges from past studies of the Korean diaspora, however, by stressing the role of corporate interests and multinational firms in shaping not only inequality on a global scale, but also notions of ethnic belonging in overseas communities. The book argues that the power of the chaebol extends far beyond shaping labor relations and income inequality. South Korean conglomerates are powerful precisely because they shape spaces of interaction, and have privileged access to the moral and cultural resources that mold how Koreans view and negotiate their identities. Along these lines, The Cost of Belonging demonstrates the persisting impact that physical spaces have in shaping the social and economic lives of migrants in this global era.

Sharon J. Yoon is Assistant Professor of Korean Studies at the Liu Institute for Asia and Asian Studies in the Keough School of Global Affairs at the University of Notre Dame. She received her Ph.D. in sociology from Princeton University and is an ethnographer who has conducted in-depth fieldwork in Korean diasporic communities in Seoul, Beijing, and Osaka. Prior to joining the faculty at Notre Dame, Yoon was a Korea Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at the James Joo-Jin Kim Center for Korean Studies at the University of Pennsylvania, a Japan Society for the Promotion of Sciences Postdoctoral Fellow at the Graduate School of Human Sciences at Osaka University, and an assistant professor in the Department of Korean Studies at the Graduate School of International Studies at Ewha Womans University in Seoul. Her research has been funded by the National Science Foundation and the Blakemore-Freeman Foundation, and her work has been published with the International Journal of Sociology, Korea Observer, Korean Journal of Sociology, Journal of Contemporary Asia, and Politics and Society. In addition to her academic research, she has worked with think-tanks such as the Korea Economic Institute and the Asan Institute for Policy Studies, as well as local grassroots organizations in Asia.

Cosponsored by the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies and the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures.

In 1904, as the Russo-Japanese War deepened and the rise of the Meiji Empire began to take hold including Japan’s annexation of the Korean peninsula, a thousand Koreans left their homes for Yucatán, Mexico, thereby becoming the first case of Korean migration to the Americas. Without the protection of the Korean government and lured by Mexican and Japanese contractors with the false promise of wealth and comfort, these migrants were sold into indentured servitude to work in the henequen plantations of the Yucatán.

One of the most recognized writers of the Korean New Wave, Kim Young-ha recuperates this slice of history that had been silenced by all the nations involved – Korea, Japan and Mexico – in his novel Black Flower (2003). In this talk, I examine Kim’s rewriting of history that situates the 1904 Korean migration to Mexico not as a minor episode in Korean national history, but rather as a central event in the transpacific chain that links Korea and Mexico within contemporary global history. The novel’s reconfiguration of global/national history is hinged on two interlinked narrative technologies: first, Black Flower utilizes Japanese imperialism as a ready-made trope to not only construct the idea of a putative Korean nation, but also to directly connect Korean independence to the Mexican revolution; second, the novel ineluctably legitimizes the current discourse of South Korea as a multicultural trans-nation by situating the birth of the Korean modern nation in Latin America and highlighting the mobility and heterogeneity of (Korean) national borders. I contend that the current historical moment in which South Korea is imagined as a global trans-nation and sub-empire calls for a certain recuperation of this transpacific history which places the Korean Mexican indentured worker as the modern subject of the South Korean nation.

Junyoung Verónica Kim is Assistant Professor of Film and Media Studies, and Latin American Culture and Literature, in the Department of Hispanic Languages & Literatures at the University of Pittsburgh. Both transregional and interdisciplinary in scope, her field of research includes Latin American and East Asian media, cultural studies, critical race and gender studies, and immigration history. She has published articles on Asian-Latin American literature, Korean immigration in Argentina, the Global South project and Transpacific Studies. Her book in progress, Asia-Latin America: Transpacific Studies and the Disciplinary Politics of Knowledge, explores the cultural and migratory flows between Latin America and Asia by looking at literature, cinema, and Asian immigration history in Latin America. Currently, she has also started working on a new project tentatively titled The Transpacific Korean War: Intimacies, Biopolitics and Nuclear Diasporas that undertakes an exploration of transpacific relations of labor, militarization, and solidarity that arise during the Korean War.

Moderator: Ungsan Kim, Assistant Professor, University of Michigan.

What does it mean to speculate on the margins or periphery of Korean cinema when global respect for Korean cinema has never been higher? Margins are determined and demarcated by the distance from the center. Hence, an account of margins is commonly given relative to the center. But what if we position the margin as a point of critical inquiry with which we problematize either the distance from or proximity to the center? In this roundtable, three scholars of Korean cinema reflect on the pervasive optimism about popular mainstream cinema and discuss the potential and significance of “margins” of Korean cinema. Ranging from marginalized modes of production, including women’s cinema, cinema of the ethnic others, and queer cinema, to disciplinarily overlooked subjects, including independent filmmaking and linguistic dimension of cinema, the roundtable discussants will share their reflections on the marginal voices and practices in Korean cinema.

Kelly Jeong is associate professor of Korean studies and comparative literature at the University of California, Riverside. Her research interests include modern and contemporary Korean literature, culture, and cinema. She published a book entitled “Modernity Arrives Again: Crisis of Gender, Masculinity, Nationhood in Modern Korean Literature and Cinema,” with the Lexington Books/Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. She has also published articles in The Journal of Korean Studies, Hanguk Munhak Yongu (Study of Korean Literature), and ACTA Koreana. Professor Jeong’s courses include modern Korean literature, Korean Culture and Society, Introduction to Korean Film, and Themes in Modern and Contemporary Korean Culture.

Jinsoo An is associate professor at the Dept. of East Asian Languages and Cultures of the University of California, Berkeley. An completed a doctoral degree at critical studies program of Dept. of Film and TV of UCLA and subsequently taught at Hongik University in Korea before joining the faculty at UC Berkeley in 2012. His 2018 book, "Parameters of Disavowal" reassess South Korea's cinematic rendition of the colonial past as a particular type of knowledge production integral to the historic-cultural logic of the Cold War system. His current project focuses on the South Korea cinema of the 1970s.

Ungsan Kim is assistant professor of Asian cinema in the Dept. of Asian Languages and Cultures and the Dept. of Film, Television, and Media at the University of Michigan. His current monograph project historicizes the emergence of critical queer cinema across Asia in the 1990s. His most recent publications include "The Poet and the Theater: Perverse Reading and Queer Poetry" in Routledge Companion to Korean Literature (2022) and "Stateless Things (2011): Queer Cinema and the Critique of the Heteronormative Nation-State" in Rediscovering Korean Cinema (2019).

Seoul and Washington recently agreed to cooperate on a “global partnership” that re-imagines the Republic of Korea – United States alliance as something well beyond a defense agreement. The United States is keen to have South Korea defend and promote democratic values in the Asian region. A second successive government in Seoul aims to increase the country’s global standing. These aspirations appear to have converged on the global partnership. An assessment of the prospective success of the current initiative can be aided by examining and attempting to explain the record to date. Why has South Korea not yet played a greater leadership role among democracies in Asia? The country has the credibility, the democratic record, and the regional ties to do so. While discussion of the country’s regional and international roles has tended to frame South Korea as a middle power state, an alternative line of inquiry begins with semantic ambivalence and the subjective context of South Korea’s external engagement. In particular, conflicting meanings of democracy, historically-rooted understandings of the connection between nation and democracy, and ideas about the relationship between the nation and the external world raise challenges to the emergence of South Korea as a regional democratic leader. The relationship with the United States is critical to understanding these challenges.

Erik Mobrand is Korea Policy Chair and a senior political scientist at the RAND Corporation. He studies political transformation in Asia with Korea as a central reference point. Mobrand is the author of Top-Down Democracy in South Korea (University of Washington Press, 2019) and articles on topics including corruption, political parties, law and politics, criminality, gender and politics, management of cities, and Korean relations with Southeast Asia. In 2016, Mobrand joined Seoul National University as an associate professor in the Graduate School of International Studies. He previously served as assistant professor of political science at National University of Singapore. He received a Ph.D. in politics from Princeton University.

Location: Weiser Hall
Organized By: Nam Center for Korean Studies

Full conference details available here: https://myumi.ch/RWn2z

This conference is free and open to the public.

Registration is required to attend virtually: https://myumi.ch/8437R

Join us for the 12th annual Perspectives on Contemporary Korea Conference!

Food exposes the intricacies and complexities of Korean culture and history. Food is quick and slow, tradition and innovation, codification and creativity, quintessentially local and a booming global industry. Food is social, whether served at a formal banquet or eaten on the street with friends. Food is lauded for its authenticity but is endlessly crossing borders and taking on new lives. Jjajangmyeon is Chinese food in Korea and Korean food abroad. One can eat sundubu jjigae in Seoul without realizing it was popularized in southern California. A bowl of budae jjigae remembers conflict but offers comfort.

This event is co-sponsored by the Korea Foundation.

This conference is free and open to the public.

Registration is required to attend virtually: https://myumi.ch/8437R

Join us for the 12th annual Perspectives on Contemporary Korea Conference!

Food exposes the intricacies and complexities of Korean culture and history. Food is quick and slow, tradition and innovation, codification and creativity, quintessentially local and a booming global industry. Food is social, whether served at a formal banquet or eaten on the street with friends. Food is lauded for its authenticity but is endlessly crossing borders and taking on new lives. Jjajangmyeon is Chinese food in Korea and Korean food abroad. One can eat sundubu jjigae in Seoul without realizing it was popularized in southern California. A bowl of budae jjigae remembers conflict but offers comfort.

This event is co-sponsored by the Korea Foundation.

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.

The rebirth of North Korea after the Korean War—centered on state authority and productive work culture—was distinctly represented by architecture and technology of the quotidian kind. Of particular importance were mass housing and everyday technologies, the two types of vernacular machines essential for organizing the people and raising their productivity. Apartments and tractors were celebrated as emblems of new socialist life. Concurrently, apartments and tractors were spectacles that dissimulated the global capitalist ideology of industrial efficiency. Machines are then parts of coordinated systems that organize life and support the expansion of state and industrial domination.

Cheehyung Harrison Kim is an associate professor in the Department of History at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. His research and teaching focus on socialism, labor, industrialism, everyday life, and urbanism in the context of North Korea and East Asia. He is the author of *Heroes and Toilers: Work as Life in Postwar North Korea*, 1953-1961, published by Columbia University Press. He is also the editor of the journal Korean Studies.

*The lecture is cosponsored by the University of Michigan Department of History.*

Exploring what it means to practice photography in the normalized conditions of militarism, Jung Joon Lee’s forthcoming book *Shooting for Change: Korean Photography after the War* (Duke University Press) treats the transnational militarism of Korea not as a unique subject of Korean photography but a lens through which we may probe the officially and culturally sanctioned readings of images when returning to them at different times. In this talk, Lee considers the temporality and performance of repetition as a key onto-epistemic framework in visualizing the space of transnational militarism - namely, the DMZ and U.S. military camptowns in South Korea.

Jung Joon Lee is Associate Professor in the Department of Theory and History of Art and Design at Rhode Island School of Design and a 2022-23 Society for the Humanities Fellow at Cornell University. A specialist in histories and theories of photography, Lee’s research and teaching interests span the intersections of art and politics, transoceanic intimacies and decoloniality, and gender and sexuality. In addition to her forthcoming book on Korean photography, Lee is currently working on two book projects: a monograph exploring exhibitions as a space of minoritarian aesthetics, kinship making, and epistemological ruptures; and the co-edited volume, *Queer Feminist Elsewhere: Decolonial Making in Trans-Pacific Art*.

Koreatown, Los Angeles: Immigration, Race & the 'American Dream' (January 23, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/97163 97163-21794083@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, January 23, 2023 4:00pm
Location: Haven Hall
Organized By: Asian/Pacific Islander American Studies

Shelley Sang-Hee Lee (American Studies, Brown) discusses her latest book Koreatown, Los Angeles: Immigration, Race & the 'American Dream.'
Beginning with the early development of LA's Koreatown and culminating with the 1992 Los Angeles riots and their aftermath, Lee demonstrates how Korean Americans' lives were shaped by patterns of racial segregation and urban poverty, and legacies of anti-Asian racism and orientalism. Koreatown, Los Angeles tells the story of an American ethnic community often equated with socioeconomic achievement and assimilation, but whose experiences as racial minorities and immigrant outsiders illuminate key economic and cultural developments in the United States since 1965.
