Korean Literature Through the Korean Wave engages with the rising
interest in both the Korean Wave and Korean language learning by
incorporating Korean Wave cultural content, especially K-dramas,
films and songs, to underline and support the teaching of Korean
literature. It combines both premodern and modern texts, including
poetry, novels, philosophical treatises, and even comics, to
showcase the diversity of Korean literature. Particular care has
been taken to include the voices of those marginalised in the often
male, elite-dominated discourse on Korean literature. In
particular, this book also distinguishes itself by extending the
usual breadth of what is considered modern Korean literature up
until the present day, including texts published as recently as
2017. Many of these texts are very relevant for recent discourse in
Korean affairs, such as the obsession with physical appearance, the
#MeToo movement and multiculturalism. This textbook is aimed at
B1-B2 level and Intermediate-Mid students of Korean. On the one
hand the textbook introduces students to seeing beyond Korean
literature as a monolithic entity, giving a taste of its wonderful
richness and diversity. On the other hand, it provides an entry
point into discussions on Korean contemporary society, in which the
text (and associated media extracts) provides the catalyst for more
in-depth analysis and debate.
