In 1959 South Korea was mired in poverty. By 1979 it had a powerful industrial economy and a vibrant civil society in the making, which would lead to a democratic breakthrough eight years later. The transformation took place during the years of Park Chung Hee’s presidency. Park seized power in a coup in 1961 and ruled as a virtual dictator until his assassination in October 1979. He is credited with modernizing South Korea, but at a huge political and social! cost.

South Korea’s political landscape under Park defies easy categorization. The state was predatory yet technocratic, reform-minded yet quick to crack down on dissidents in the name of political order. The nation was balanced uneasily between opposition forces calling for democratic reforms and the Park government’s obsession with economic growth. The chaebol (a powerful conglomerate of multinationals based in South Korea) received massive government support to pioneer new growth industries, even as a nationwide campaign of economic shock therapyâ€"interest hikes, devaluation, and wage cutsâ€"met strong public resistance and caused considerable hardship.

This landmark volume examines South Korea’s era of development as a study in the complex politics of modernization. Drawing on an extraordinary range of sources in both English and Korean, these essays recover and contextualize many of the ambiguities in South Korea’s trajectory from poverty to a sus! tainable high rate of economic growth.

From its beautiful c! inematog raphy to its intense narrative to its absolutely lovable characters, it was just plain charming. - Dramabeans

Set during the 18th century when Korea was still known as Josun, Sungkyunkwan Scandal is the latest historical Korean TV drama series to delight audiences worldwide.

Sungkyunkwan, Josun s most prestigious school, has its own set of rigid rules (e.g. no girls!) that even the king can t touch. But that's all about to change because of four very special students! Kim Yoon-hee is a super smart girl, but she was born in an era when women were forbidden to study. To help support her grief-stricken family, she decides to pose as a boy and earn money from lazy scholars by doing their homework. One thing leads to another and she finds herself being accepted to Sungkyunkwan! But will she be able to hide her true identity (and avoid the punishment of death)?

Yoon-hee becomes friends with Lee Sun-joon, an uptight son-of-a-noble who loves following! the rules, Moon Jae-shin, a young man who is scarred by his brother s tragic death, and Gu Yong-ha, a free-spirited soul whose life is a bit more complicated than he lets on. These four unlikely friends find themselves embroiled in romantic rivalries, campus politics, and even a top-secret mission to help the king change the course of Korean history!Red Road Poster (11 x 17 Inches - 28cm x 44cm) (2006) Style A reproduction poster print
