Hong Kong, Mexican, Korean artists, DJs confront colonialism's continuities, unearth diverse local cultures
When we think about the meaning of colonialism from the perspective of Korea, the first thing that comes to mind is the Japanese colonial era (1910-45), which ended with Japan's defeat in World War II and the Korean Peninsula's liberation.

Canadians offer advice on enduring Korea's winters

Temple AdventuresJesus' message at a Korean Buddhist temple
What would Christmas be like without eggnog, some turkey, Santa Claus and Jesus? And more pressingly, what does this all have to do with a Korean Buddhist temple?
