Updated: 09 Jul 2014

We hung out with Jen of FromHeadToToe and shot a TL;DR with her on a topic that we're quite interested in: what's it like being a Korean American, especially in how her Koreanness affected her in America, and how her Americannness affected her in Korea. It's really interesting, in our opinion, and we hope you find it interesting, too!

Korean War Atrocities: Interviews with Prisoners of War Documentary Film

Duration: 25:58
Updated: 09 Nov 2011

http://thefilmarchive.org/ DVD: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001201S1M/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&tag;=doc06-20&linkCode;=as2&camp;=217145&creative;=399369&creativeASIN;=B001201S1M The US reported that North Korea mistreated prisoners of war: soldiers were beaten, starved, put to forced labor, marched to death, and summarily executed. The KPA killed POWs at the battles for Hill 312, Hill 303, the Pusan Perimeter, and Daejeon—discovered during early after-battle mop-up actions by the UN forces. Later, a US Congress war crimes investigation, the United States Senate Subcommittee on Korean War Atrocities of the Permanent Subcommittee of the Investigations of the Committee on Government Operations reported that "... two-thirds of all American prisoners of war in Korea died as a result of war crimes." Although the Chinese rarely executed prisoners like their Korean counterparts, mass starvation and diseases swept through the Chinese run POW camps during the winter of 1950--51. About 43 percent of all US POWs died during this period. The Chinese defended their actions by stating that all Chinese soldiers during this period were suffering mass starvation and diseases due to the lack of competent logistics system. The UN POWs, however, disputed the claim by pointing out that most of the Chinese camps were located near the easily supplied Sino-Korean border, and that starvation was used to force the prisoners to accept the communism indoctrinations programs, which were running in full swing after the starvation was over. The North Korean Government reported some 70,000 ROK Army POWs; 8,000 were repatriated. South Korea repatriated 76,000 Korean People's Army POWs. Besides the 12,000 UN Command forces POWs dead in captivity, the KPA might have press-ganged some 50,000 ROK POWs into the North Korean military. Per the South Korean Ministry of Defense, there remained some 560 Korean POWs detained in North Korea in 2008; from 1994 until 2009, some 79 ROK POWs escaped the North. The North Korean Government denied having POWs from the Korean War, and, via the Korean Central News Agency, reported that the UN forces killed some 33,600 KPA POWs; that on 19 July 1951, in POW Camp No. 62, some 100 POWs were killed as machine-gunnery targets; that on 27 May 1952, in the 77th Camp, Koje Island (now in Geoje), the ROK Army incinerated with flamethrowers some 800 KPA POWs who rejected "voluntary repatriation" south, and instead demanded repatriation north. In December 1950, National Defense Corps was founded, the soldiers were 406,000 drafted citizens. In the winter of 1951, 50,000 to 90,000 South Korean National Defense Corps soldiers starved to death while marching southward under the Chinese offensive when their commanding officers embezzled funds earmarked for their food. This event is called the National Defense Corps Incident. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_War

Angry Dennis Rodman defends North Korea basketball game

Duration: 2:27
Updated: 07 Jan 2014

Basketball star Dennis Rodman on Tuesday defended his controversial visit to North Korea with a team of former NBA players, saying it was a "great idea for the world." In an exclusive interview with Chris Cuomo of CNN's "New Day" from the North Korean capital, Pyongyang, Rodman reacted angrily when pressed on whether the group should have traveled there given recent events in the secretive country. The trip takes place just weeks after North Korea shocked the world by announcing the purge and execution of Kim's once-powerful uncle. There are also concerns for the welfare of U.S. citizen Kenneth Bae, who's been detained there for more than a year. The other former NBA players are due to take part in a controversial basketball game on the birthday of Kim Jong Un, the country's young, unpredictable leader. The friendly contest with North Korea's team is planned for Wednesday, when Kim is believed to turn 31. Dennis Rodman is in North Korea preparing for an exhibition basketball game Wednesday between a North Korean team he's coaching and former NBA players. Former NBA star Dennis Rodman lashed out Tuesday at suggestions that he is playing a patsy to dictator Kim Jong Un by putting on an exhibition game in one of the world's most brutal dictatorships.

CARRY ON - Amy Regan

Top Amy Regan, CARRY ON

It is fading out of summertime
And I’m trying to find a different peace of mind
When it seems the world doesn’t treat me right
And I am writing you a melody
Cuz our words have seemed so distant recently
I tried to tell you what’s on my mind
But you didn’t seem to have the time
To shed some light
And keep me safe tonight
So carry on then, carry on
Carry on, then, carry on
And in the morning I’ll wake up again
And the new sunlight will lead me to forget
Today, when the world didn’t treat me right
But for now this night has got no end
Cuz I wait for you, I thought you were my friend
And you’d always lend a hand
But now I know exactly where you stand
Don’t waste your time to keep me safe tonight
He’ll come home to me
And he’ll ask me how I’ve been
And I will not say anything to him
As if this were a game I could win
But I’m not disappointed or let down
Cuz it’s time my senses finally came around
To know when the world doesn’t treat you
You can’t expect just one to greet you
And all these distances may never be explained
But I suppose I’ll go on loving all the same
So don’t think of me too much darling as you change
Just carry on then, carry on
Carry on then, carry on, oh carry on.
