This was a really interesting lecture. I have some limited exposure to Korean history, politics and culture but this lecture really shed so much light. I have a whole new set of questions and ideas formulated from Prof. Jung-Kim's lecture. I am really fascinated by the Japanese role in Korea history. The idea that at one point 250,000 Japanese controlled and occupied 21 million Koreans is just fascinating. Moreover, I was really intrigued by the development and division of Korea into two countries. The information on the Korean War was also extremely valuable as is the debate about whether that war was a civil war or an international war. Overall, this was a fabulous lecture!
