Seoul Searching

Culture and Identity in Contemporary Korean Cinema (Suny Series, Horizons of Cinema)

Edición de la obra Seoul Searching

"Seoul Searching is a collection of fourteen provocative essays about contemporary South Korean cinema, the most productive and dynamic cinema in Asia. Examining the three dominant genres that have led Korean film to international acclaim - melodramas, big-budget action blockbusters, and youth films - the contributors look at Korean cinema as industry, art form, and cultural product, and engage cinema's role in the formation of Korean identities."--Jacket.
