Comments Welcome!

Dearest Readers-- please feel free to comment! Your comments esp. related to research activities (even just asking why this or for more explanation of that)can help me to understand what I need to write in my dissertation or give me new ideas for my research. I really would love some feedback!

Here are some thoughts:

Trace the ennobling of bone, wood and sinew into musical instruments. The ennobling of the physical body through grace, rhythm, and movement. And this process through the Korean experience.

What is it about the Korean national character and experience which results in a continuum of excellence?

How might this account for the apparent realization of the ancient ideal of Hongik Ingan, to benefit all mankind, as represented by the hallyu phenomenon?

"Drawing tight the cords coursing through history can dignify the past, inform the present, and insure the future." Me 1986, but you can borrow it.
