"a group of young men and women mix pop music and a fighting style by
putting Taekwondo moves to the tune of LMFAO’s “Party Rock Anthem.” When
the tune switches over to 2PM’s “Hands Up,” the young men and women
show off very skillful martial art moves. They spin and flip to break
wooden boards and one young woman in particular has no fear of gravity
as she runs upward to kick a board held extremely high in the air. The
surprising mix of music and martial arts entertained the spectators as
well as over a million online viewers".<br />

Synopsis: A quiet pawnshop keeper with a violent past takes on a drug- organ
trafficking ring in hope of saving the child who is his only friend. An ex-special agent CHA Tae-shik's only connection to the rest of the
world is a little girl, So-mi, who lives nearby. Her mother, Hyo-jeong
smuggles drugs from a drug trafficking organization and entrusts
Tae-shik with the product, without letting him know. The traffickers
find out about her smuggling and kidnap both Hyo-jeong and So-mi. The
gang promises to release them if Tae-shik makes a delivery for them,
however it actually is a larger plot to eliminate a rival drug ring
leader. When Hyo-jeon's disemboweled body is discovered, Tae-shik
realizes that So-mi's life may also be in danger. Tae-shik becomes
enraged at the prospect that So-mi may already be dead and prepares for a
battle, putting his own life at risk.

North Korean refugee free. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We always hear stories about the North Korean refugees and how it is "over there" but rarely do we hear <i>real</i> stories from <i>real</i> people whose lives are at stake every moment of their lives. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Human Rights Crisis: </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>A Cult of Personality:</b>Indoctrination programs to worship Kim Jong Il start in nursery school,
every citizen has a Kim pin on his/her lapel, there are Kim portraits in
every household, and there is no tolerance for criticizing or
“subverting” the Kim regime in any way.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Food Crisis: </b>33% of the population is currently undernourished, 23% of children under
the age of five are underweight, and a near-total breakdown in the
public health system has left an entire generation of children
physically and mentally impaired. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Lack of Fundamental Freedoms:</b> The North Korean government
prohibits freedom of speech, press, assembly, and association. Not only
wrong-doers, but "wrong-thinkers" are punished, the press is centrally
controlled, and there is virtually no access to outside information. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Imagine living in a place like <i>this</i>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Moving hearts, screenings have touched and
changed lives; many students and young adult become nomads to rescue the
refugees while raising awareness of the North Korea crisis. Now is
your chance to take look inside the North Korean regime and to find out
how we're all connected. </div>

The Korean American Scholarship Foundation has an incredible scholarship opportunity for us -- the deadline is June 25, 2011 and there is an awardees reception in New York on September 10, 2011. Please, please apply! The following is taken from their <a href="http://www.kasf.org/index.html">online website:</a> <br /><br /><strong>What is KASF?<br /></strong><br />The Korean American Scholarship Foundation (KASF) is a non-profit, volunteer-managed organization established to help meet the financial needs of Korean-American students seeking higher education.<br /><br />Founded in 1969 by a small group of concerned individuals in Washington, D.C., the KASF began as a local organization with limited focus and funding resources. However, with the dramatic growth of Korean immigrant communities in the U.S., the KASF has expanded to include other regions and to broaden its funding base.<br /><br /><strong>Goals<br /><br /></strong>The KASF seeks 1) to assist Korean American students in pursuit of academic and personal achivement, 2) to encourage community and civic service as an integral part of leadership development, and 3) to nurture the sense of pride and confidence in Korean cultural heritage and tradition.<br /><br /><em>We hope you'll apply!

The initiative was unveiled by MIFAFF Minister Chang Tae-pyong at the 2008 Korea Food Exposition. The effort aims to increase the number of Korean restaurants overseas to 40,000. "The foundation will be in charge of charting strategies and implementing programs to make home-grown cuisine popular worldwide" he said. One of the first stages of this campaign seeks to unify the names of Korean food in order to bring more consistency and clarity to foreigners. Chang's top priority is to standardize and improve the inherent quality of Korean food. He hopes to execute this through research, refinement and marketing. MIFAFF, a cabinet-level division of the South Korean government, has invested heavily in research; several state-run agencies have been appointed to analyze the key ingredients in Korean food, such as "kimchi", "deonjang" (soy bean paste) and "gochujang" (chili paste). Chang also noted that "culture is inseparable from cuisine" -- he believes that interior design and tableware is critical to the global marketing of Korean food. </div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Although these efforts are presumably made with the best intentions, the proceedings have aquired a considerable amount of discontent. Joe McPherson, journalist from <em>Hi Seoul,</em> an online travel website for Korea published an article that outlines some of the dangers to this plan. </div><div></div><div></div><div>"A manager for one major Korean restaurant group admitted that it is common for upper management in corporations and the government to create grand schemes. They either don't listen to constructive criticism, or their underlings are too timid to give their feelings. This has spawned some embarrassing public blunders and awkward slogans and has even angered some of the target consumers." McPherson finds that tourists in Korea are not impressed by the "white tablecloth restaurants", but rather, are most enchanted by the rustic restaurants that serve home-style, comfort food. He argues that Chang's approach is too "one-size-fits-all" and that it should be more inclusive of Korea's demographics and traditions. He writes, "[t]he promoters of Korean food globalization need to shirk off the upper class pretension. Korea's rustic traditions are its strengths, not embarrassments. It needs a multi-pronged approach that targets hardcore foodies, casual diners and people on the go. It also needs to actually be based on market research and not an imperial fantasy of global conquest. Ask what people want. Don't force it down their throats. Korean cuisine will become popular, whether anyone promotes it or not. Yet it takes long-term planning, actual market research and realistic goals to make Korean food stick as a favorite and not fade as a fad." With many dissenting views on properly globalizing Korean food, these next seven years will be an exciting turning point for Korean cuisine in the international food scene. </div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>+ <a href="http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/biz/2010/08/123_54497.html">http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/biz/2010/08/123_54497.html</a></div><div>+ <a href="http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/biz/2008/10/123_32807.html">http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/biz/2008/10/123_32807.html</a></div><div>+ <a href="http://english.seoul.go.kr/gtk/news/reports_view.php?idx=1271">http://english.seoul.go.kr/gtk/news/reports_view.php?idx=1271</a></div>NEU KASAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10206601880017750737noreply@blogger.com2
