Pages 73-80 – Nick Bonner – ‘The Use of Informal Diplomacy and Cultural Exchanges in the DPRK’

Volume 11By EditorFebruary 19, 2019

Since 1993, Koryo Group has specialised in travel to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and in tourism and cultural exchanges with the country. The company has visited North Korea almost every month since 1993 and takes in around 70 per cent of all Western tourists to the country. In 2005, 700 tourists visited…

Pages 65-71 – Keith Bennett – ‘Bamboo Curtain or Open Door? Challenges and Opportunities of the DPRK- Perspectives of a Business Consultant’

Volume 11By EditorFebruary 19, 2019

Perhaps it is invidious to pose my title in the form of a question: bamboo curtain or open door? It is not that it is always impossible to establish the truth about the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK). It is more that, having arrived at the truth, one is more than likely to conclude…

Pages 57-63 – David Lakin – ‘The Kaesŏng Archaeological Project’

Volume 11By EditorFebruary 19, 2019

The author visited Kaesŏng as a representative of the Museum of London. His paper sketches out the proposals made at the time of his visit for an archaeological survey of Kaesŏng and its hinterland. In presenting his observations, he will repeat a couple of caveats: he is in no way a specialist in Korean archaeology;…

Pages 49-56 – Andrew Killick – ‘Hwang Byungki and North-South Musical Exchange’

Volume 11By EditorFebruary 19, 2019

In October and December 1990, North and South Korea sent parties of musicians to each other in an exchange of musical performances intended to express the will for unification. On other occasions, one side has sent a musical delegation to the other, but this is the only time to date there has been a reciprocal…

Pages 33-48 – Don Starr – ‘The World Koreanists Forum 2005 and Korean Studies’

Volume 11By EditorFebruary 19, 2019

The invitation to the World Koreanists Forum 2005,1 described as being “For the Global Network of Korean Studies”, came as the result of a response2 I had sent to the web-based Korean Studies Discussion List on the problems facing Korean studies departments in the United Kingdom. (All such departments are, in fact, located in English…

Pages 19-31 – Keith Pratt – ‘The Evolution of Museums in the ROK’

Volume 11By EditorFebruary 19, 2019

For all that the Chosŏn yangban took such pride in their sinocentric culture, they could not claim to have kept up with their Chinese neighbours in the tradition of connoisseurship. Put bluntly, the majority of them simply had not cultivated the habit of collecting bronzes, porcelain, and the paintings of bygone ages, or commissioning new…

Pages 7-17 – Sowon Park – ‘Metempsychosis and Chiasmatic Encounters- on Margaret Drabble’s The Red Queen’

Volume 11By EditorFebruary 19, 2019

Johnson, story 19 begins with a nineteen-year-old English boy on his National Service, in search of a radical departure from home.

Pages 1-6 – Margaret Drabble – ‘The Writing of The Red Queen’

Volume 11By EditorFebruary 19, 2019

This paper is an attempt to explain what compelled me to embark on the foolhardy enterprise of trying to write a novel inspired by my reading of the memoirs of Lady Hong, the Crown Princess, and why the novel took the form it did. This project was fraught with difficulties, and I am grateful for…
