Translating and Receiving Korean Media

Autor: Jonathan Evans , Jinsil Choi , Kyung Hye Kim

Número de Páginas: 141

In recent years, Korean culture has been incredibly successful internationally, from the films of auteur directors like Bong Joon-Ho (Parasite) to shows like Squid Game and K-pop music. At the same time, media from the UK has also been successful in South Korea, with popular shows such as Killing Eve and Life on Mars. Written by scholars working across translation studies, film and media studies, this volume examines the ways in which Korean media has been received and translated in the UK, as well as how British media has fared in South Korea. Case studies explore how Korean media is (re)packaged and categorised for a Western audience, and how paratextual material (trailers, adverts, fan reactions) mediates films and shows for international audiences. The book also examines how the Korean remake of Life on Mars localises the British show, how Squid Game has been audio-described, and how slower media models can suggest more sustainable forms of consumption and distribution.

Los últimos años han sido el escenario de feroces denuncias sobre la violencia sexual. La revista Time reconoció al movimiento #MeToo como personaje del año 2017 por su impacto en redes sociales y su capacidad para desestabilizar los mercados laborales en los Estados Unidos. Las actrices de Hollywood se vistieron de negro en la ceremonia de los Globos de Oro en enero del 2018 para denunciar el acoso sexual en sus trabajos. Las actrices francesas, a su vez, consideraron las quejas sobre acoso, abuso y consentimiento en el cine gringo como un ademán puritano y conservador, y reivindicaron a la mujer como agente de deseo. Las periodistas colombianas y argentinas se sumaron a la movilización y denunciaron acosos múltiples dentro de los medios de comunicación, donde varias de ellas habían recibido ofertas de trabajo o ascensos a cambio de sexo. Este libro es un primer esfuerzo por sistematizar las reacciones que se han dado en latinoamérica en los últimos cinco años a partir de las movilizaciones estudiantiles en contra el acoso sexual y la violencia de género en el contexto universitario.

Although Filipino cinema dates to the early silent era and shares many characteristics with Western film, it has frequently been ignored by Western critics and audiences. This book offers a rare study of cinema in the Philippines. The first half of the work presents a history. Chapters cover lost pre-World War II films, the postwar cinema boom, the Philippines' unique relationship with the United States and its manifestation on film, and Filipino cinema's decline. The second half of the book is the most comprehensive published filmography of Filipino cinema to date.
