Korean film-related reading response

About one-page limit (double spaced). You may choose ONE assigned reading (from the 5) and write a short response paper. In this response paper, you should first briefly summarize the main thesis of the reading. Then, you

should critically assess the reading: how does the reading help me to better understand the film?; what kind of

critical stance does the author take?; does the author’s reading of the film or topic similar to mine?; etc. You

are not allowed to write a response paper to short film reviews (I will mark it, if the assigned readings are

short film reviews rather than an article or book chapter).
