Book excerpt: Through South Korean filmic and literary texts, this book explores affect and ethics in the healing of historical trauma, as alternatives to the measures of transitional justice in want of national unity. Historians and legal practitioners who deal with transitional justice agree that the relationship between historiography and justice seeking is contested: this book reckons with this question of how much truth-telling from a violent past will lead to healing, forgiving, forgetting and finally overcoming resentment. Nuanced interpretations of South Korean filmic and literary texts are featured, including Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy, Bong Joon-ho’s Mother and literary texts of Han Kang and Ch’oe Yun, whilst also engaging the ethical and political philosophy of Levinas, Hannah Arendt, and others. Also offered is new and extensive research into the hitherto hidden history of thousands of North Korean war orphans who were sent to Eastern European countries for care. Grappling with the evils of history, the films and novels examined herein find their ultimate themes in compassion, hospitality, humility and solidarity of the wounded. Healing Historical Trauma in South Korean Film and Literature will appeal to students and scholars of film, comparative literature, cultural studies and Korean studies more broadly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern medicine cannot effectively deal with allergies and autoimmune diseases. Although the symptoms can be temporarily controlled by drugs, the immune function, which is the root cause of the disease, is not an area that can be easily controlled by drugs. In Eight-Constitution medicine, by activating the body's immune function through a constitution-specific regimen and acupuncture method, various autoimmune diseases such as atopy, rheumatism, lupus, myasthenia gravis, and muscular diseases are successfully cured. The reason why Eight-Constitution medicine can cure these diseases is that Eight-constitution medicine is a natural healing method that the human body heals on its own. As an American certified public accountant(CPA), my specialty is accounting. I have worked as an accounting expert in my entire social life, so my medical knowledge is very limited. I learned Eight-Constitution medicine 5 years ago. At that time, the total class hours are 24 hours(3 hours a day for 8 days). And immediately, with the skill of a clumsy beginner, I used laser acupuncture to successfully heal at once my severe chest pain that had been seriously ache for 5 months. What does my treatment experience mean? Eight-Constitution Medicine is simple and clear, meaning that anyone who mechanically applies it will benefit. A total of 60 acupuncture points is used: 30 below the knee and 30 below the elbow(about 18 acupuncture points are sufficient for your own treatment). And if you perform acupuncture in a predetermined order to the acupuncture points for each constitution, the immunity will allow the body to heal on its own. Press a few buttons and the healing program will run in a body as if in a computer. This book shows the Creator's secret coding to activate the immunity. It presents a way to solve the limitations of modern medicine. With this book, even ordinary people can do what only the world-class oriental medicine doctors can do, and can go beyond the limits of modern medicine! If you are suffering from health problems, find a miracle through this book. It also helps to cope with COVID-19 and its sequelae with Eight-Constitution medicine. If you follow this book, anyone can accurately diagnose 8 constitutions. How wonderful it would be if any ordinary people can diagnose 8 constitutions and apply it to your diet. There are many cases in which eight-constitution regimen alone has led to miraculous healing, some of them have been introduced in this book. There are countless ways to classify physical constitutions in the world. Isn't Eight-Constitution medicine one of those common ways to classify constitutions? Among the various constitutional classification methods, only Eight-Constitution Medicine has acupuncture to verify the diagnosis result of constitutions! If the diagnosis is wrong in Eight-Constitution medicine, side effects occur in performing acupuncture. Eight-Constitution medicine acupuncture is the safest in the world because it does not have any side effects as long as the diagnosis of constitutions is accurate and acupuncture formula for each constitution is correctly applied.

Book excerpt: Practitioners of Korean traditional medicine say the ultimate cause of disease is not so much the invasion of external elements but rather malfunctions in inherent bodily function. Since disease is considered to result from the weakening of vital energy, the emphasis is placed on boosting the body’s ability to defend against disease. Illness may be attributed to emotional states like joy or sorrow or to other internal causes such as overwork and fluctuations in the function of internal organs. Even diseases that appear to have external causes are ultimately seen as the products of internal factors. If one’s ability to fend off sickness is strong enough, then one will not get sick even if pathogens do enter the body. Thus, treatment focuses mainly on bolstering the body’s vital energy.

This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Still today, in South Korea, many people pay for the services of mudang - the intermediaries of Korea's syncretic folk religion. The majority of mudang are called to the profession by gods; their clients are individuals or small groups and they focus on the use of spirit-power ('possession') for diagnosis and problem-solving. There is, however, a tiny minority of mudang who are born or adopted into the ritual life and who have no spirit-power. These ritualists perform in large family groups, conducting rituals for whole communities. They focus far more on the use of music, dance, and song to provide healing experiences. In this book, Simon Mills provides an in-depth analysis of the East Coast hereditary mudang institution and its rhythm-oriented music, focusing particularly on the Kim family of mudang - the government-appointed 'cultural assets' for the genre. It is the first English language book to study this tradition in any depth, using materials from fieldwork (1999-2000) alongside interviews with two key family members, Kim Junghee and Jo Jonghun. Throughout, Mills includes numerous quotes from the ritualists themselves to help reveal their characters, opinions and beliefs. He documents the family's history, the decline of the hereditary mudang institution and its kinship customs, and the family's changing relations towards 'outsiders'. Mills also details ritual procedures, musical structures, playing techniques, instruments, and learning methods both of the past and present; as non-ritual musicians become increasingly aware of the powerful ritual rhythms, the music is finding new life in non-ritual settings. Downloadable audio resources featuring Kim, Jo, and Mills accompanies the book, each track corresponding to the equivalent chapter in the text.
