Editor’s Notes Hi Daegu, Such a busy summer! We hope you are staying cool and having fun. Speaking of fun, Daegu rocks out each weekend at the Daegu Battle of the Bands! Check out information and band previews on p16.

And on a more serious note, we have an article talking about an upcoming documentary on Dokdo by American filmmaker Matt Koshmrl on p24. We are organizing a spooky summer party at Hapcheon Horror Festival. Check out the preview on p44. Loads of amazing articles to check out this summer as you relax or sweat the days away.

We are gearing up for a busy fall and are looking for help to improve the Compass. Specifically a website manager, social media manager and event coordinator. We are slowly planning on some big changes coming soon that will affect how you interact with the Compass. The direction we will take will allow everyone easier access to articles, photos and reviews of Daegu but also all over Korea. If you have ever thought about getting a foot into the magazine industry, this is your chance at hands on experience. Please email info@daegucompass.com to inquire about the positions above.

The Jaram Kitchen A New Daegu Favorite Written and photographed by Ivan Broida / Translated by Sori Lee

Found in an alley in downtown Daegu, 'The Jaram Kitchen' is a new Italian restaurant that promises to become a standout gem among the newly opened restaurants in the city. As you enter this tiny restaurant--it only has three tables in the warmer months and four in the cooler ones--you are greeted by soul music and the friendliest of smiles from the owner and chef, Yun Hojun. The decoration is quirky and colorful. The restaurant could easily be transplanted to a beach front in a tropical island and it would fit perfectly. 대구 시내 골목길에 위치한 ‘자람 키친’은 앞으로의 성장 이 기대되는 이탈리안 레스토랑이다. ‘자람 키친’은 3,4개 의 테이블이 있는 작은 레스토랑이며 소울 음악과 사장님 의 따뜻한 미소가 손님들을 맞이한다. 레스토랑의 분위기 는 아주 특이하고 다채로운 느낌이며, 마치 열대 섬에 있 는 해변가에 온 듯 한 분위기이다.

Yun Hojun, a native of Daegu, lived in Seoul for ten 8

DAEGU COMPASS 2014.AUGUST

years where he worked at an Italian restaurant for three months. Despite the short stint, he discovered a passion for cooking and decided to learn the basics all by himself. Once he thought he was good enough, he started looking for a place to open a restaurant and settled on what is now The Jaram Kitchen, in between boutiques and nail shops. The prohibitive rent nearer the downtown area pushed him to the back alleys, which in turn gave the place a very unique look and feel. 윤호준 오너쉐프는 대구에서 태어나, 십 년 동안 서울에 서 생활하며 이탈리안 레스토랑에서는 3개월 정도 일했 다. 짧은 기간임에도 요리에 대한 열정을 발견하여 기초 부터 혼자 힘으로 배우며 시작했다. 본격적으로 레스토 랑을 시작하겠다 결정한 후, 적합한 장소를 찾기 시작했 고 옷 가게와 네일 샵 사이에 위치한 ‘자람 키친’을 오픈 하게 되었다. 비싼 임대료 때문에 중심가가 아닌 골목에 위치하게 되었지만 오히려 특이한 느낌을 주며 독특한 장 소가 되었다.

Daegu Food - The Jaram Kitchen

http://daegucompass.com

As soon as you place your order, the chef steps into the kitchen and chops, peels, and fires up the stove in a seemingly rehearsed dance. It is a one-man operation but the food is prepared and delivered promptly. The portions are extremely generous and colorful. Regardless of the chef's lack of professional training, the food looks great and tastes even better. 주문을 하고 나면, 쉐프가 부엌으로 들어가 마치 춤을 추듯 재료를 썰고 다듬고 손질하며 요리를 시작한다. 혼자 운영하 는 레스토랑이지만 오래 기다리지 않아도 음식이 바로 나오 며 다양한 색의 재료를 사용하는 덕에 음식이 아주 다채롭고 양 또한 넉넉하다. 쉐프가 받았던 전문적인 트레이닝 기간에 비하면 음식은 보기에도 아주 좋고 맛은 더욱 좋다.

The menu is not extensive, which is a smart move given the size of the restaurant and staff, but it offers items not found in other Italian restaurants. One such foods is the blueberry pizza. I didn't have the opportunity of trying it; however, other customers ordered it and it looked enticing enough to keep it in mind for a future visit.

-continued on p10-

비교적 큰 레스토랑이 아니라 메뉴는 다양하지 않지만, 다른 이탈리안 레스토랑에서는 만나 볼 수 없는 메뉴들 이 있다. 블루베리 피자가 그 예이다. 블루베리 피자를 주 문하지는 않았지만 다른 손님들이 주문한 것을 봤을 때, 다음에는 잊지 않고 꼭 먹어보리라 다짐할 만큼 매력적 으로 보였다.

I started the meal with a chef's salad, one of the most popular items on the menu. The chef uses only fresh, seasonal vegetables and fruits. Some vegetables, as well as chicken, are grilled. The salad is crispy and refreshing, perfect for the summer months. 우리는 가장 유명한 메뉴 중 하나인 쉐프의 샐러드로 시 작하였습니다. 신선하고 제철 야채와 과일만을 사용하였 고 몇 가지 구운 야채와 치킨을 곁들여 먹을 수 있었다. 아 삭아삭하고 신선했으며 특히 요즘같이 더운 여름에 먹기 에 완벽했다.

Then, the chef brought out a spaghetti dish called 'Amatriciana Pasta', which has grilled chicken breast, bacon, onion, mushrooms, and red peppers in tomato sauce. I couldn't stop eating it. I noticed that my particular dish was a little bit spicy, but the chef remarked that it can go from mild to burning hot, depending in the customer's request.

다음으로 구운 닭 가슴살과 베이컨, 양파, 버섯과 고추가 토마토 소스에 어우러진 ‘아마트리치아나’라는 파스타가 나왔다. 먹는 것을 멈출 수가 없었다. 약간 매운 감이 있었 지만, 아주 순한 맛부터 아주 매운 맛까지 손님의 요청에 따라 조절할 수 있다.

I was already starting to feel satisfied when a pizza appeared in front of me. It was the 'Finocchiona Pizza', with a ton of toppings (mostly freshly grilled vegetables and chicken) and a deliciously-crispy-looking crust. Each pizza is made on the spot and they are big enough to be shared by two people (though, if you're really hungry you might want to get a salad or a pasta dish as well). 피자가 나왔을 때는 보는 것만으로도 배부를 만큼 만족스 러웠다. ‘피노치오나 피자’에는 푸짐한 포핑(대부분 신선 하게 구워진 채소와 치킨)과 맛있게 바삭해보이는 크러 스트가 있었다. 모든 피자는 즉석에서 만들어지며 두 명 이 함께 먹기에는 충분히 많은 양이다. (하지만 많이 배고 플 경우에는 샐러드나 파스타도 더 시키고 싶을 것이다.).

The last thing I tried was a very colorful, fruity, and strong sangria, perfect for that Mediterranean (or Hawaiian) beach feel the place exudes. 마지막은 알록달록하고 과일 맛이 가득하며, 강한 상그 리아였다. 지중해의(혹은 하와이) 해변 느낌이 물씬 풍기 는 마무리였다.

Chef Yun is grateful for all the customers that come to his restaurant and he loves giving back to them. He has instituted a stamp card system in which five visits will get them a free menu item. He will also have a lot of surprises, such as giving unannounced half-price meals to random customers. The restaurant will also have daily specials and seasonal dishes. If everything goes well, he will even venture on to open another restaurant with different food styles.

자람 키친의 메뉴는 8,900원에서 12,900원 사이이다. 레 스토랑은 Miss M. Pie 근처에 위치해 있으며 평일에는 오전 11:30분에서 오후 10시까지, 금요일과 토요일에는 자정까지 영업한다.

윤호준 쉐프는 레스토랑에 방문하는 모든 손님들께 감사 하며 그 마음을 돌려드리려고 노력한다. 그래서 5번째 방 문하는 손님에게는 한 가지 메뉴를 무료로 제공하는 스탬 프 카드를 제공한다. 또한 랜덤으로 예고 없이 반 값만 지 불하는 할인 혜택 등, 다양한 서프라이즈 이벤트를 하려고 한다. 매일 특별한 메뉴가 있으며, 계절에 따라 다른 메뉴 도 제공한다. 만약 지금의 레스토랑이 잘 되면, 다른 종류 의 음식을 하는 레스토랑에 도전할 계획도 있다.

The dishes at the Jaram Kitchen are priced between 8,900 and 12,900 won. The restaurant is located near Miss M. Pie and it is open from 11:30am to 10:00pm on weekdays and from 11:30am to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.

Which Sandwich is Best at Wich Wich?

Daegu's Newest Sandwich Shop

Written and photographed by Brian Van Hise / Translated by Kate Ko

Two years ago a very harrowing thing happened in downtown Daegu. The Quiznos sub sandwich shop, mind you the only one in Daegu, closed its doors.

Gone were the days of foot-long bacon chicken ranch sandwiches and meatball subs. It was a sad time for sandwich lovers in Daegu, more-so because once the location opened its doors again a few months later, it had been converted into...another...cell phone shop. Yes, that’s right. Out with the uniqueness of sub sandwiches and in with another brightly-lit, K-pop-pumping mobile store.

2년전, 대구에서 끔찍한 일이 일어났다. 대구에서 오 직 하나뿐이었던 퀴즈노스 섭 샌드위치 가게가 문을 닫은 것이다. 1피트 길이의 베이컨치킨 랜치 샌드위 치와 미트볼 섭을 더 이상 볼 수 없게 된 것이다. 샌드 위치를 사랑하는 많은 대구 시민들이 슬퍼했고, 그 뒤 로 그 곳은 몇 달 간격으로 핸드폰 가게 등으로 업종이 계속 바뀌었다. 그렇다. 샌드위치의 독특함은 가고 눈 부신 조명과 케이팝 음악이 흘러나오는 핸드폰 가게 로 바뀐 것이다.

Daegu Food - Which Sandwich is Best at Wich Wich?

http://daegucompass.com

But earlier this year, a cafe located two stops away from downtown, across from the Daegu Bank building was converted from coffee cafe to full on western-style sandwich stop! Called Wich Wich, the small shop seats about 15 people inside and has several outdoor patio spots as well. 하지만 올해 초, 시내에서 조금 떨어진 대구은행 건 물 건너편 카페가 서양식 샌드위치 가게로 바뀌었다!

Wich Wich라는 이 가게는 약 15명을 수용할 수 있 는 내부 공간과 외부 공간이 마련되어 있다.

The cute and clean interior atmosphere is a great place to escape off to and relax. Bright colors, reflective surfaces, and one of the most original wall clocks you’ll ever see, make Wich Wich a splendid place for an afternoon lunch. Their menu boasts 9 different sandwich options all ranging from about 4-5,000 won. Varieties include: the Wich Original, chicken teriyaki, spicy chicken, bacon & egg, tuna, bulgogi, and club. There’s also walnut cream cheese and kaya toast. Their second menu offers -continued on p14-

sandwiches made with ciabatta bread. Be sure to try the pastrami. Again, all items fall just under 5,000 won. 귀엽고 깔끔한 인테리어와 분위기는 일상에서 벗어나 휴 식을 취하기 좋은 공간이다. 밝은 색상과 반사면, 그리고 당신이 본 벽시계 중 가장 독창적인 벽시계가 Wich Wich 에서 점심을 먹기에 최고의 공간으로 만든다. 모든 메뉴가 4-5,000원선이고 9가지 종류의 샌드위치 종류가 있다. 메뉴는: 위치 오리지널, 치킨데리야키, 스파이시치킨, 베 이컨에그, 참치, 불고기, 그리고 클럽 샌드위치이다. 호두 크림치즈와 카야토스트 또한 준비되어 있다. 그리고 치아 바타 빵으로 만든 샌드위치도 선택할 수 있다. Pastrami 를 적극 추천한다. 이 모든 메뉴는 5,000원 미만이다.

Now, be ready when you order these things. These aren’t small, skimpy sandwiches at all. They are stuffed with wonderfully fresh ingredients: fresh tomatoes, lettuce, egg, etc. It will be a big mouthful for sure but well worth the visit. Waiting times for a sandwich can take up to ten minutes, so have a little patience and know that the quality will be top-notch. 주문을 할 때는 마음의 준비를 해라. 이 샌드위치는 전혀 작거나 빈약한 양이 아니며 신선한 토마토, 양배추, 계란

DAEGU COMPASS 2014.AUGUST

등으로 가득 채워져 있다. 한입 가득 즐길 수 있는 이 곳은 충분히 방문할 가치가 있는 곳이다. 샌드위치를 만드는 시 간은 약 10분 정도이니 인내심을 갖고 샌드위치의 맛이 최 고가 되는 시간이라 생각하자.

Set menu items are also available. Any sandwich of your choice paired with a coffee or juice will save you some cash as well. 세트 메뉴도 가능하다. 모든 샌드위치가 커피 혹은 주스와 함께 세트로 주문할 수 있고 더욱 저렴하다.

Of course, Wich Wich still is a cafe, so the drink menu does have the expected selections: espresso, americano, caffe latte, caffe cappuccino, caffe mocha, caramel macchiato all available as hot or iced and all for under 4,000 won. Likewise, for those who don’t dig coffee, hot/iced chocolate, teas, fruitades, fresh fruit juice, and smoothies are also available and all for under 4,000 won. 물론 Wich Wich는 아직 카페이다. 그러니 에스프레소, 아메리카노, 카페라떼, 카푸치노, 카페모카, 캬라멜마키아 또 등 메뉴를 4,000원 미만으로 즐길 수 있다. 커피를 좋

Daegu Food - Which Sandwich is Best at Wich Wich?

아하지 않는 사람들은 핫/아이스 초코, 티, 에이드, 생 과일쥬스, 스무디 등을 4,000원 미만의 가격으로 즐 길 수 있다.

Next time you get an itch for a huge, western-style sandwich, stop by Wich Wich Sandwiches. You can thank us later. 큰 서양식 샌드위치가 먹고 싶을 때, Wich Wich 샌 드위치를 방문해보라. 후에 우리에게 고마워하게 될 것이다.

Wich Wich is located outside Exit #4 of Daegu Bank station on the green subway line. When you exit, walk straight for one block. Wich Wich occupies the outside corner of the Lotte Castle apartments on your left. Hours are daily, from 7:30am until 11pm.

Wich Wich는 2호선 대구은행역 4번출구에 위치해 있다. 출구로 나와 1블록을 걷다보면 왼쪽 롯데캐슬 아파트의 코너에 있다. 매일 아침 7시 30분부터 밤 11시까지 영업한다.

Participating Bands(참가밴드) 1-1. Broken Sunday (Daegu / Korean / Hard Rock) They came so close to the Wild Card slots in 2012 and 2013, but luck just wasn’t on their side. This time, they are ready to give it their all and reach that final round.

18

3년간 배틀오브밴드에 개근한 배틀오브밴드가 배출한 최 고스타 브로큰 선데이. 지난 2회 다 아쉽게 파이널 진출권을 놓쳤지만 이번만큼 은 준비되었다고 확신하고 있다!!

1-2. Little Boys (Daegu & Seoul / Korean / Hard Rock) These 19 year-old music majors have never quenched their thirst for playing hard rock music. They are ready now to be blessed by the sweat of Daegu hard rock maniacs. 모두 20살, 이 약관의 음대 초년생들은 여전히 빡쎈 하드 락 음악에 목말라 있었다. 해서, 자신들의 음악과 함께 쏟아내는 관객들의 땀으로 그 몸마름을 채워보려 미친듯이 합주중이다.

1-3. Rokdo (Daegu & Yangsan / Expat / Metal) There used to be a crazy and loud-as-tell metal band in Daegu, whose name was as silly as its music, called Death By Kimchi.

Well, the leader has since returned to Korea and has made a rocking new band with a great cast of members called ROKDO. Stay home if you don’t want to harm your ears, otherwise if you want to experience real metal sound, be

DAEGU COMPASS 2014.AUGUST Daegu Community and Events - Daegu Battle of the Bands is Back! http://daegucompass.com

there! 옛날옛날, 대구에는 데쓰 바이 김치, 소위 김치 땜에 죽겄 다라 불리웠던 시끄럽기 그지없던 외국인 밴드가 있었다. 그 밴드의 리더가 더 시끄러운 밴드 멤버들과 함께 만든 새 밴드 '락도 혹은 록도' 한국인이 좋아하는 독도처럼, 록음악을 좋아하는 이들의 애정을 한몸에 받겠다는 뜻의 이름처럼 신나는 록/메탈 사운드를 원한다면 이들을 보라!

1-4. Knife in Skull (Daegu / Korean / Metal) If you want some Lamb of God sounds coming at you, then this is it. 램오브갓의 사운드을 원하신다면 이들을 보시라.

2-1. 틴트먹는 남자(Guys eating Tint) (Daegu / Korean / Funky Rock) Members of Plastic Kidz and Racy Blue chose to get together to make a great, funky band as of yet still unveiled, but definitely worth the expectations.

플라스틱 키즈와 레이시블루의 멤버들이 만든 펑키 밴드. 여전히 베일에 쌓여있지만, 확실한 건 '기대되는' 밴드라 는 것.

2-2. Sounds Good (Daegu / Korean / Pop and Funky) 'Sounds Good' Sounds really good!!

Well balanced sounds and well balanced vocals. 말그대로 사운즈굿한 밴드, 사운즈굿. 균형잡힌 사운드에 균현잡힌 보컬(^^;)음색을 자랑.

2-3. Eric Kessler (Daegu / Expat / Acoustic) This talented guy asked, "Can one man be a 'band'?" We said, "Yes, if it is YOU!" Check this guy's sound out, which is bigger than any normal “band.” 단한명으로 밴드가 될 수 있냐고? 이 친구의 음악을 들어 보면 그러하다!, 고 말할 수 있으리라. 풀 밴드보다 꽉찬 어쿠스틱 원맨 밴드 사운드를 들려주리 라 장담한 당찬 외쿡 친구.

2-4. Electro Mob (Daegu / Korean / Electro Garage) -continued on p20-

19

The Titans/Absolute band The only electro Garage band in town.

Nothing special, nothing to explain.

Just Dance! Dance! Dance!!!! 지역 유일의 일렉트로 개러지 밴드라 떠들지만 사실 특별 한 건 전혀 없다. 다만 춤추고, 춤추고, 또 춤출뿐!!

3-1. November on Earth (Daegu / Korean / Post Rock) The most popular Korean band for expat audiences in Daegu and maybe all around Korea.

Real post-rock sound. All the members are still young, but their sound is not. 전국의 외국인들 사이에서 벌써 입소문이 돌고 있는 지역 유일의 포스트락 밴드. 여전히 젊지만, 음악만큼은 원숙미를 채워가고 있는 무 서운 청년들.

3-2.The Elsewheres (Ulsan / Expat / Funky and Reggae) All the way from Ulsan, and ready to shock Daegu audience's eyes and ears!

Incredibly talented instrumentalists share the best tunes to dance along with! 울산에서 대구를 깜짝 놀라게 하려 날아오다. 엄청난 연주력에 엄청난 무대 장악력으로, 따라 춤추지 않 고서는 못배기가 만드는 펑키/래게 음악들을 들려준다.

3-3. Player's High (Daegu / Korean / Pop and Jazz) In this moment, one of the best pop/jazz bands in town.

Every band member is so skillful, and the band itself is well organized.

Especially, the voice of the female vocalist is going to make you fall in love with the music. 아마도, 이 시점에, 감히 대구 최고 밴드 중 하나라고 말할 만한, 젊은 팝/재즈 밴드. 모든 악기 연주자들이 말도 안되는 연주실력을 가진데다 가, 밴드 사운드 자체까지 훌륭한 믿기 힘든 밴드. 게다가 젊은 여성 보컬이 들려주는 믿기 힘든 깊이 있는 사운드는, 음악과 사랑에 빠진다는게 느끼게 한다.

3-4. Zilvaplana (Daegu / Korean/ Grunge & Hard Rock) Hard to Believe! These 20-year-old kids are playing 20-year-old grunge/hard rock sounds.

Harder to Believe! Most of the songs are their own!!!

Impossible to Believe! The charismatic female vocalist 20

sounds like Janis Joplin!! 믿기 힘들다. 이 갓 20살을 넘긴 청년들이 20년전 그런 지/하드록 사운드를 들려준다. 더 믿기 힘들다. 대부분의 노래가 그들의 자작곡이다!! 거기에 더해진 여성보컬의 카리스마적인 목소리는 듣는 이를 20년전, 아니 그보다 전으로 여행하게 만든다.

4-1. Classy Wallet (Daegu / Expat / Classic Rock) To explain This 3-piece rock band, only 4 words are needed: "Ready to F**king Rock!!!' 이 신나는 3인조 외국인 밴드를 설명할 단어는 딱 하나. "즐겨라!!"

4-2. Jennifer and Friends (Daegu / Mixed / Soul & Blues) The band of Jae Eun Ha, by Jae Eun Ha, and for Jae Eun Ha Bluesy, soulful, maybe sexy... 하재은양의, 하재은양에 의한, 하재은양을 위한 밴드 블루지하고, 소울풀하며, 아마도 섹시하기 까지 할...

A Crashing of Tides Dokdo Documentary Two Perspectives, One Island, Blurred History Written and photographed by Matt Koshmrl

Summer 2014, a multinational crew from 8 different countries are working on a documentary film ‘Dokdo’ in South Korea and Japan. Matt Koshmrl, a former English teacher in Daegu city, is the director of this film.

At first, it can be quiet difficult to understand why some Korean people are so passionate about Dokdo.This film will stay away from political involvement, but rather explore how Dokdo is more than just a piece of property andmore a symbol in the pursuit of a national identity for Korean people.

We will be following several South Korean people who 24

are passionate about Dokdo and have dedicated a significant portion of their time and efforts into advocating for the Island. Each has a unique journey that connects them to the island.We will follow them all over South Korea and to Japan. The main three subjects for this film are a woman who lived there for years in her childhood with her father, a former North Korean student who speaks publicly in order to keep it South Korean land, and a farmer who spends his spare time aggressively campaigning for the island in both Korea and Japan. The film will not be focused on the land dispute. Thus, it will

Daegu Play Day: New Entertainment Culture in Daegu Relive the Day and Play Again!

Written and translated by Kate Ko

Last July 12th, ‘Daegu Play Day’ in Daegu Citizen Hall was an amazing success. For the festival, many people and foreigners also made a visit and enjoyed the festival. Starting at 5 pm, the festival offered many and various attractions, including performances of indie band and pantomime. Many kinds of product, like postcard, doll, accessory, candle, hand-made brownie, coffee, were being sold and many secondhand books found new owner. All glass wall in the Citizen Hall was decorated with window art by citizens and the ground of big square became sea or sky with chalk art. There was long line of people who wants to put famous artist’s art stamp on a paper yourself and keep it. Inside wall was full of exquisite corpse drawing, which is to draw con28

Many citizens could look around the inside of theater and dressing room with Theater Tour. 지난 7월 12일 토요일, 대구 시민회관에서 펼쳐진 ‘놀자 놀자 다시놀자’ 축제는 성공적이었다. 행사 당일 많은 시 민들이 발걸음했고, 많은 외국인들도 축제를 즐겼다. 오후 5시부터 시작된 행사는 인디밴드, 마임 등으로 사람들이 시민회관에 머무는 동안 쉴 새 없이 볼거리를 제공했다. 엽서, 인형, 액세서리, 캔들, 수제 브라우니, 커피 등 다양 한 종류의 물건들이 플리마켓에서 판매 되었고 헌책을 교 환하는 곳에서는 헌책들이 새로운 주인을 만나 빛을 발했 다. 시민회관에 있는 모든 유리 벽은 윈도우 아트로 꾸며 졌고, 광장 바닥은 초크아트로 바다가 되기도 하고 하늘이 되기도 했다. 한국 동화를 모티브로 한 판화를 직접 찍어

소장하려는 시민들이 긴 줄을 이루었고, 다른 사람이 그린 그림을 이어 그린 일렬의 그림이 시민회관 내벽을 장식했 다. 대구 시민회관의 극장과 분장실 내부를 구경할 수 있 는 극장투어도 이루어졌다.

Main stage, performance of Big Band Volcano, received an enthusiastic response. Artists of various instruments on stage, conductor in blue jeans, flash lighting and great selection of music.. Milk container boxes and plastic chairs were not enough to provide seats for people who want to enjoy their music. From baby in a stroller to grandfather waving a fan, it was festival for everyone indeed. 메인 공연인 빅밴드 볼케이노의 무대에 대한 시민들의 반 응은 뜨거웠다. 무대에 꽉 찬 다양한 악기의 연주자들, 청 바지를 입고 선 멋진 지휘자, 화려한 조명과 시원한 여름 밤과 어울리는 청량한 선곡. 준비한 우유박스 의자와 플라 스틱 의자로는 자리가 모자라 멀리서라도 무대를 보려는 사람들로 시민회관 광장 전체가 가득 찼다. 유모차를 타 고 온 아이부터 부채를 부치며 흐뭇한 미소로 공연을 즐기 는 할아버지, 할머니까지 그야말로 ‘모든 대구시민’이 즐 길 수 있는 장이었다.

Hot Daegu Play Day didn’t cool down even after a several encore performances of Big Band Volcano. Flea market was crowded with customers until it is late and people kept participating in art performances, trying to leave their trace in the Citizen Hall. Finally, with 8 hours long effort of foreign artists, Live Art was completed and became great place of photo zone. Even it is the very first year of holding Daegu Play Day, many people draw, see, listen, taste and enjoy in Daegu Citizen Hall. Daegu Play Day is expected to cool off with more various and interesting contents next year. 몇 차례의 요청으로 빅밴드 볼케이노의 앵콜 공연까지 끝 난 뒤에도 놀자데이의 열기는 식지 않았다. 플리마켓은 늦 은 시간까지 손님들로 북적였고, 시민회관에 흔적을 남기 려는 사람들의 아트 참여도 계속되었다. 마침내 외국인 아 티스트들이 8시간 동안 그린 Live Art도 완성 되어 포토존 으로 탄생했다. 놀자데이의 첫 해이지만 참 많은 사람들이 놀자데이에서 그림을 그리고 보고 듣고 맛보고 즐겼다. 내 년에는 또 얼마나 알차고 흥미로운 컨텐츠로 대구의 여름 을 식혀줄지 기대 된다.

Coming Out Celebration Despite Opposing Forces, The 6th Daegu Queer Festival a Success Written and photographed by Elaine Kim / Translated by Yujeong Lee

The words of a woman in sunglasses bounced off the loudspeakers to delve into the audience: “Five years ago,” she said, “we spread a rainbow flag on Dongseongro and called it a festival. And now, look how far we’ve come.” A hurrah from an audience of 350+ overwhelmed her with tears. 선글라스를 낀 한 여성의 말이 스피커를 통해 흘러 나와 청 중들을 파고 들었다. “5년 전에는.” 로 시작한 그녀의 말이 시작되었다. “동성로에서 무지개 깃발을 나눠주고 그걸 축 제라고 불렀습니다. 그리고 지금 우리가 얼마나 발전시켰 는지 보세요.” 350명이 넘는 청중들에게서 터져 나온 함 성은 그녀를 눈물이 나오도록 압도했다.

DAEGU COMPASS 2014.AUGUST

On the 28th of June, a sunny day of 30 degrees Celsius, the 6th Daegu Queer Festival was held in the 2•28 Memorial Park with colorful booths surrounding the stage, where performers one by one exhibited their pride in forms of rock-n-roll, k-pop dance, and soulful singing. A rainbow flag was raised, like an overseer of the festival, and, in truth, was, as it poked out of a booth for Solidarity for LGBT Rights in Korea, one of the largest LGBT rights networks established in SoKo since 1997.

6월 28일, 30도가 웃도는 화창한 날씨에 제 6회 대구퀴 어축제가 무대 주위를 둘러싼 형형색색의 부스가 가득한

Special Reports - Coming Out Celebration

http://daegucompass.com

228 공원에서 열렸다. 그리고 무대에서는 출연자들 이 차례대로 락앤롤, 케이팝댄스, 감정을 실은 노래 로 자부심을 보여주었다. 무지개 깃발이 마치 축제의 감독같이, 그리고 1997년 한국에서 결성된 가장 큰 성적소수자 인권 네트워크 중 하나인 동성애자인권 연대 부스에서 깃발이 툭 삐져 나와 있어서 사실이 그러했다.

Of course, the real leadership behind the festival was the executive crew of the Daegu Queer Festival, who organized LGBT events in the month of June—a talk concert featuring George Takei of Star Trek, the Daegu Queer Film Festival, and a conference on LGBT societal identity—as a prelude to the tour-de-force that is the Daegu Queer Festival. Even after the Daegu Infrastructure Corporation (under the governance of the city of Daegu) refused to grant permission to throw the festival in the park under the grounds of “simply inappropriate for public good”, as, the corporation declared, an assemblage for the minority is not benefitting for the majority, the executives organized a crisis committee to successfully combat the situation with the support of 303 other human rights groups. 물론 축제 뒷면의 진짜 대표는 대구 퀴어 축제의 운영 진에게 있으며, 이들은 6월에 있었던 성적소수자 이벤 트(스타트렉에 출연했던 조지 타케이의 토크 콘서트, 대구퀴어영화축제, 성적소수자의 사회적 아이덴티티 에 대한 컨퍼런스 등)를 대구퀴어축제의 성공적인 개 최를 위한 서막으로 열었다. 대구시설관리공단(대구 시 산하 기관)이 공원에서 축제를 여는 데에 대한 승 인을 “공익에 적합하지 않다”라는 이유로 거부했다. 하지만 공단이 말한 대로 소수자를 위한 단체는 다수 집단의 이익을 위한 것이 아니기에 운영진은 303개의 다른 인권단체의 지지와 더불어 어려운 상황에 성공 적으로 대처하기 위해 대책위원회를 구성했다.

Ironically, 2•28 Memorial Park was constructed to commemorate the bravery of students who protested against an oppressive regime headed by Seungman Lee, the first Korean president. The spokesperson for the committee expressed their regret over the city’s decision, describing the reason behind this rejection as the “harsh wall of prejudice”. 모순적이게도 228운동기념공원은 한국의 초대 대통 령인 이승만의 억압적인 정권에 대항한 용감한 학생 들을 기념하기 위해 조성되었다. 위원회의 대변인은 승인거부의 뒤에 숨겨진 이유를 “편견의 벽”으로 설 명하며 시의 결정에 대한 유감을 표했다.

This was not the only hurdle that the crew had to overcome; after brouhaha at the Korea Queer Festival at Seoul, in which homophobes discharged beer cans and even hydrochloric acid at the parade participants, and the police took little to no action, anxiety was rife among the committee. 이것만이 운영진이 극복해야 할 장애물은 아니었다. 서 울에서 있었던 한국퀴어축제에서 난리법석이 벌어졌는데 동성애 혐오자들이 퍼레이드 참가자들에게 맥주캔과 심 지어 염산을 투척하는 일이 일어났다. 그리고 경찰은 거 의 아무런 제재도 취하지 않았으며 대책위 사이에서는 걱 정이 만연했다.

“I came here thinking, ‘O.K. be prepared to return home bleeding from the head,’” a volunteer at the Queer Festival admitted. A ‘how-to’ packet was handed out to the participants in case a physical attack ensued, and police troops surrounded the park back-to-back, quick to move in between verbal fights (that soon transformed physical) with their shields. “여기에 와서 생각하길 “그래 머리에서 피 흘리며 집에 돌 아갈 각오를 하자”라고 퀴어축제에 참가한 자원봉사자가 말했다. 물리적인 공격이 있을 때를 대비하여 ‘행동요령’ 패킷을 참가자들에게 나눠 주었고 경찰병력이 다닥다닥

붙어서 공원을 둘러쌌으며 방패를 들고 (곧 육체적인 싸움 으로 변하는) 말싸움에 신속히 끼어들었다.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the park was a congregation of Christians in white, with several ministers singing hymns from the Bible. Most had leaflets in their hands that read “Homosexuality is sin!”, and occasionally some would wander in the festival, grab supposed homosexuals, and try to persuade them to abandon their sexuality. Some individual picketers who carried large red crosses that read “Jesus is the savior” shouted homophobic statements. 그러는 동안 공원의 반대편에서는 성경에 나오는 찬송가 를 부르는 성직자들과 함께 흰옷을 입은 기독교인들이 집 합했다. 대부분 손에 “동성애는 죄악이다!”란 내용이 담긴 전단지를손에 들고 있었고, 때때로 몇 사람들은 축제장소 내를 돌아다니며 동성애자로 보이는 사람들을 붙잡고 그 들의 성적 취향을 버리기를 설득하려고 애썼다. 개인적으 로 “예수님은 구원자시다”라고 쓰여진 커다란 붉은 십자 가를 들고 있던 피켓 시위 참가자들은 동성애를 혐오하는 말들을 외쳐댔다.

Inside the festival, however, a group of Christians open to LGBTAIQ held a popular booth full of leaflets and rainbow stickers. Ten other LGBT organizations propped

up their booths—some in attempt to clear up misconceptions about AIDS, some to freely distribute condoms to prevent STDs. 하지만 축제 내부에서는 성적소수자들을 받아들이는 기독교인들의 그룹이 전단지와 무지개 스티커가 가 득한 부스를 열었는데 인기가 많았다. 다른 열 개의 성적소수자 단체 역시 부스를 열었다. 몇몇은 에이즈 에 대한 오해를 불식시키려 했고, 몇몇은 성병을 예방 하기 위해 무료로 콘돔을 나눠주기도 했다.

The Daegu-Kyungbuk LGBT Rights Organization sold handmade rainbow bracelets for 3,000 won, and the Solidarity for LGBT Rights in Korea recruited sponsors for their new project, Rainbow Safe Space, where LGBT teens can find refuge and advice on the streets of Seoul. “For right now we’re going to put a couple in Seoul. No plans for Daegu yet,” a representative said. 대구경북성적소수자인권모임은 직접 만든 무지개 팔 찌를 3천원에 판매했고 한국의 동성애자인권연대는 청소년 성적소수자들을 위한 쉼터이자 서울 거리에 서 조언을 얻을 수 있는 무지개 세이프 스페이스라 는 새로운 프로젝트를 위한 스폰서를 모집했다. 대표 는 “현재로써는 서울에 두어 군데를 설치할 예정입니 다만 아직 대구에는 계획이 없습니다.”라고 말했다.

People of all color and ages—expats and Koreans, teenagers and seniors—including a family with two young children—exchanged small talk and selfies as they waited for 5:30pm, the long-awaited parade. Some had red stamps of ‘gay’ or ‘lesbian’ running down the length of their arms. 오후 5시 30분을 기다리며 모든 인종과 연령대의 사 람들 (두 아이가 있는 가족을 포함한 외국인과 한국 인, 청소년과 어른들)은 이야기를 나누고 셀카를 찍 었다. 바로 오랫동안 기다린 퍼레이드를 위해서 말이 다. 몇몇 사람들은 ‘게이’ 혹은 ‘레즈비언’이라고 적힌 빨간 도장을 팔에 길게 찍기도 했다.

“I think that Korean society is really opening up to queer culture,” noted an expat, who had previous knowledge about the festival and has been in Korea for about two years. Two men in matching shirts with the statement “I’m gay, sorry you’re not,” and neon shorts, exclaimed “I think having equal rights is very important. Until then, shout it out loud, gay and proud!”

-continued on p36-

“한국사회가 퀴어문화에 대해 정말로 오픈되어 가고 있다 고 생각해요.” 퀴어축제에 대해 이전의 기억을 갖고 있고 한국에 2년 정도 거주한 한 외국인이 말했다. “I’m gay, sorry you’re not. (난 게이야. 넌 아니라서 안 됐네)”라 고 적인 셔츠와 네온 컬러의 반바지를 맞춰 입은 두 남자 는 이렇게 주장했다. “동등한 권리를 가지는 것은 매우 중 요하다고 생각합니다. 그 때까지 게이 그리고 자랑스러움 이라고 크게 외쳐요.”

The parade kicked off with a female pastor, who read out loud “Loved ones, let us love one another!” and ended her speech with a short Amen that echoed through the long procession of parade participants. A truck equipped with speakers blasting Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” lead the way through the streets of downtown, while a vocal trainer who introduced himself as “a gay man from Seoul” sang improvised notes in the background. 퍼레이드는 여성 목사의 낭독으로 시작되었다. “사랑받 는 사람들이여, 우리가 서로를 사랑할 수 있도록 허락하 라!” 그리고 그녀의 연설은 퍼레이드 참가자의 긴 행렬에 울려퍼진 짧은 아멘으로 끝이 났다. 스피커가 장착된 트 럭은 레이디 가가의 “Born This Way”가 크게 틀고 시내 의 거리를 통과하며 길을 안내했고, 서울에서 온 게이라 고 소개한 한 보컬 트레이너는 백그라운드에서 즉석에서 만든 노래를 불렀다.

Between two lines of policemen, barefaced members of the LGBT community waved rainbow flags, danced, 36

and hurled playful insults at the speakers on the truck.

Although a sit-down anti-festival protest caused the parade to turn around and crowd into an alternative, narrow path, the excitement did not seem to wear off until they had to squeeze through perplexed citizens of Daegu who were not afraid to take pictures or send hostile glares. 경찰이 만든 두 줄 사이로 얼굴을 들어낸 성적소수자 커뮤 니티의 회원들은 무지개 깃발을 흔들고, 춤을 추고 트럭의 스피커에 장난기 가득한 욕설을 던지기도 했다. 비록 길에 주저앉아서 축제에 반대하며 항의 하는 사람들이 퍼레이 드를 뒤로 돌게 하고 대안책인 좁은 길을 가득 메우게 했 어도 즐거움은 사진 찍기를 두려워 하지 않거나 적대적인 시선을 보내는 당황한 대구 시민들 사이를 간신히 지나갈 때까지 사라지지 않는 듯 보였다.

After a short video delineating the history of queer festivals and the championing of LGBT rights in Korea, the crowd was promised a better festival next year and the years after—a final cheer for gay rights, and the colorful community dispersed throughout the alleys back to their lives as neighbors, siblings, and friends; blending in with the “normal” people, blurring the differences. 퀴어 축제의 역사와 한국에서 성적소수자들의 인권을 위 해 투쟁하는 것에 대대 그려낸 짧은 영상을 상여한 후에 관중들은 내년 그리고 또 다음 해에 더 나은 축제를 다짐 받았다. 성적소수자의 권리를 위한 마지막 환호성, 그리 고 다양한 커뮤니티들은 골목을 통해 해산했고 이웃, 형제 자매 그리고 친구로써의 그들의 삶으로 돌아갔다. “보통”

Water and light from Gangjeong Daegu Contemporary Art Festival

Information provided by Okreal Kim / Photo provided by Gangchang

Period: 2014. 8. 23 – 9. 21 Venue: The ARC Organisation : Dalseong Cultural Foundation Water and light are important elements for us to live.

They are the powerful source of a life that continues the process of its formation and change. An art exhibition, ‘water and light from Gangjeong’ is organized to make people share their art and life with the aid of the power of nature in Gangjeong. 물과 빛은 생명의 가장 기본적인 요소다. 그것은 박제된 것 이 아니라 살아 움직이는 생명, 끊임없이 변화하고 생성하 는 힘의 원천이다. 그래서 이번 <강정에서 물•빛>展은 생 성 변화하는 힘의 원천인 물•빛 가득한 곳에서 삶과 예술 이 교감하는 자리를 만들고자 한다.

Gangjeong is a place where artists from all over the regions of Korea gathered and had art festivals from 1977 to 1979. Especially, a lot of artists from Japan joined 38

DAEGU COMPASS 2014.AUGUST

in the art festival held in 1979 and shared their art with Korean artists whose works were very experimental and sensational at that time. It was an international art event that presented futuristic potential in Korean art. Historically, Gangjeong is a meaningful place where artists showed their own responses to the current of the times in the artworks. 강정은 1977년과 78년 그리고 79년 3년간 전국에서 모 인 미술가들이 이벤트를 펼친 장소이다. 79년에는 전국에 서 모인 실험적인 예술가들과 일본작가들이 대거 참석해 국제적인 이벤트를 통해 한국현대미술의 새로운 장을 열 어 놓았다. 강정이라는 장소가 갖는 의미는 당시에 예술가 들이 특정한 장소에 모여서 동시대에 대한 예술가의 태도 와 반응을 미술이라는 방식으로 이루어낸 역사적인 장소 라는 것에 있다.

‘2014 Daegu Contemporary Art Festival in Gangjeong is to make people remember the historical meaning of the

Travel Korea - Water and light from Gangjeong

http://daegucompass.com

art festival held in Gangjeong in the 1970’s and realize the need to make art stronger and more creative through the futuristic vision. In this aspect, Gangjeong can be an aesthetic field where the role of art is extended and connected to our lives by provoking and sharing thoughts of art in the past , present and the future. 이런 의미에서 이번 <강정대구현대미술2014>展은 역사 적 의미를 재생산하고, 그 가치를 미래지향적인 비전을 통 해 창조적인 지평을 마련하기 위한 것이다. 이러한 시도는 과거의 역사적 가치와 정신을 일깨워 미래로 향하는 길에 서 새로운 생명을 불어 넣고 과거와 현재, 삶과 예술을 가 장 근원적인 생명의 장소에서 교감을 시도하는 장(field)이 되고자 하는 것이다. 이러한 시도는 삶의 공간과 예술이 결 합됨으로써 강정을 미적 장(Aesthetics Field)으로 확장 해 가고자 하는 것이다.

I’d like to say that ‘2014 Daegu Contemporary Art Festival in Gangjeong’ is an event in which arts of the past and those of the future can breathe together in the present with the light of historical values of Gangjeong and the elements of nature in it.

‘Water and light from Gangjeong’ is organized for people to have a time to share these artistic features of historicity, site specificity, and publicity in an art community with one another. I am sure that Gangjeong, full of water and light, will be a great aesthetic field where arts of the past, present and the future are communicated so well that the future of the city and nature can be bright. 이번 ‘강정에서 물•빛’展은 역사성과 장소성 그리고 공공 성이 커뮤니티아트를 통해 상호교감의 시간을 가지기 위 한 것이다. 이를 통해 ‘물•빛 만남’이 이루어지는 장소인 강정은 과거와 현재 그리고 미래가 자연과 도시 그리고 예 술로 소통되는 ‘미적 터전’으로 거듭나게 될 것이

Who's Who? The Faces of Medical Tourism Written by Matthew Caracciolo

You’ve read the articles, you’ve seen the billboards.

Daegu wants to be the destination for medical treatment. Behind the city’s push to improve its medical tourism infrastructure is a coalition of folks who want to make Daegu a better place to work, live, and be healthy.

These include not only doctors and nurses, but medical tour agencies, medical coordinators, medical associations, interpreters, researchers and more. Read about a few of these hard-working individuals who volunteered their time to talk about themselves, their city, and the newest developments.

DAEGU COMPASS 2014.AUGUST

Lee Han-jo Mr. Lee works as an Officer of Medical Tourism Industry at Daegu Metropolitan City. He spoke with us about the new medical hotel in Daegu, as well as the ongoing MediValley project, which is a cluster of research, development, and treatment facilities being built on the outskirts of Daegu.

My job at Daegu Metropolian City is to attract foreigners to Daegu for medical treatment, support them while they are here with whatever they need, monitor how their procedure is going, and then follow up afterwards

for feedback.

As for the new medical hotel, Eldis Reagent hotel contacted Daegu Metropolitan City about the possibility of developing a medical hotel for the city. We agreed to cover its promotion. What sets Daegu’s hotel apart from others, such as those from Seoul or Busan, is that most medical hotels are renovations of older hotels with only rooms and maybe a few attached clinics. Daegu’s is a new build, specifically designed to be a medical hotel.

Therefore it comes with more bells and whistles including a spa, massage center, coffee shop, beauty shop, nail center, and much more. Anything someone visiting for an extended period of time for medical reasons might need.

Daegu aims to be the ‘Medi City’ of Korea, establishing an entire medical system from research and development to treatment. We want to evoke the image of a healing garden, a place you come for accommodation and treatment. Medi Valley’s medical laboratories, research facilities, and pharmaceutical companies will help create a foundation of medical knowledge and develop new high-tech skills to support this vision.

This progress is the result of a 2009 change in medical 46

law, allowing Korean medical facilities to more easily treat foreigners. This created a legal foundation for medical tourism, spurring changes and developments like these.

Jeong Seon-jin Mr. Jeong works as a Medical Tourism Coordinator at Dongsan Medical Center. He took a moment to speak about Dongsan’s facilities as well as its place in Daegu’s growing medical tourism field.

My job at Dongsan Medical Center (DMC) involves planning, networking, marketing, coordination services, being a travel guide, and more with the ultimate purpose of attracting international patients to Daegu for healthcare services. DMC is a multidisciplinary hospital with 37 specialized departments. Tourists can receive anything from basic treatments to complex surgeries. At the moment we have many medical tourists who come for comprehensive health examinations, cancer treatment, orthopedic issues and infertility.

The new medical hotel is really advantageous for us.

Healthy Living - Who's Who?

http://daegucompass.com

Eldis Reagent Hotel is located at the south gate of Dongsan Medical Center. Medical tourists are provided with discounts on room rates. In addition, we are reviewing opportunities to partner with clinics that will open in the medical hotel. Also, the new hotel is meant to improve Daegu’s standing as a medical destination. Due to the city’s location and lack of tour sites and other entertainment options, growth of medical tourists visiting Daegu is very slow. The first 3-4 years were spent on marketing efforts. But on the positive side, the number has grown every year. Specifically, the number of medical tourists choosing Dongsan Medical Center has almost doubled over the last year. Russians and Kazakhs are the most common nationalities aside from Americans.

All the patients coming to our hospital are very different in character, economic status, interests and needs.

Sometimes the most difficult tourists are the ones that you can't forget. In one recent episode, we sent a bed to Busan from Daegu per the request from one of our patients.

It’s a great privilege to impact the lives of our patients and to enhance their quality of life. It’s the pride of my job.

the world. Last May, for instance, a 7 year old girl from Kyrgyzstan visited us and got surgery for an atrial septal defect. At first, their family was nervous because that operation is not easy and the cost is very expensive. But our specialist successfully performed a delicate operation and they were very satisfied with it. My heart was filled with pride at that time.

The inspiring work of these and many more men and women paint a bright picture for Daegu’s future; as more people find their way to Daegu for healing, more lives here at home will be changed for the better through jobs, health services, and name recognition for their hometown.

Han Hyo-seon Ms. Han is a Coordinator at Fatima Hospital, where she translates for foreign patients, interprets documents, and takes care of administration. She took a moment to share her observations about medical tourists coming to Daegu.

After college, I worked for travel agencies as well as the convention center. While doing that, I became aware of medical tourism and thought being a medical translator would be a fascinating task. I’ve been doing this for over three years in Daegu Fatima hospital. I can speak English and a little Chinese.

Since 2010, Fatima Hospital’s International Medical Center has been providing convenient, one-stop medical service for foreigners. We opened the Private Care Center for in-patient care last February, which is a ward for foreign patients and is designed as a luxurious and sanitary space during hospitalization. At this point, tourists usually have plastic surgery or a total health check-up. I think most come from China, Russia and Mongolia, but we have served people from all across

Enjoy Wine While We Are Young Unique Twenties’ Wine Club Written and photographed by Sangwon Lee

Unique twenties’ wine club representing Daegu and Gyeongbuk

WineNV started from the old boys’ assembly of attendees of a wine class at KT&G Sangsang Univ. It was a casual friendship group at first. However, as time went by, it began holding regular meetings and various events which increased the number of members and has now grown into a club gathering together the different university students of Daegu city. Now almost 30 members regularly attend and it has been expanding its field of activity such as managing its own wine study club.

유일무이, 대구경북 대표 20대 와인동호회 WineNV는 2011년 KT&G상상유니브 와인클래스 수강 생의 OB모임에서 시작했습니다. 처음에는 단순한 친목 모임이었으나 매달 정기모임과 다양한 행사를 주최하면 서 조금씩 인원이 늘어나 대구지역의 각기 다른 대학교 학 생들이 모인 동호회로 성장했습니다. 지금은 30여명의 회 원이 활동하고 있고, 동호회 자체 와인스터디를 운영하는 등 활동 범위를 넓히고 있습니다.

Wine? Just simply enjoy it.

Many people think wine is difficult to be knowledgeable about. If you are trying any wine for the first time every-

thing will be unfamiliar, such as where the wine-producing areas are, what is the grade of wine, how to drink it etc. If you know about wine, you might be able to drink it more sophisticatedly, but the knowledge is not for ordinary people but for experts such as a sommelier. For regular people it is simply enough to enjoy wine. WineNV also aims to promote a more casual wine culture, allowing people to enjoy wine in their everyday lives. 와인? 그냥 편하게 즐기는 것 와인을 어렵게 생각하는 사람들이 많습니다. 와인을 처음 접하는 사람들에게 생산지는 어느 곳인지, 품종은 어떤 것 인지, 마시는 방법에서도 모두 낯설기만 합니다. 와인을 알 고 마신다면 더 맛있게 즐길 수 있지만 이것은 소믈리에와 같은 전문가에게 필요한 지식입니다. 평범한 사람들에게 는 와인을 편하게 즐길 수 있을 만큼의 기본적인 상식만 있 으면 충분합니다. WineNV또한 캐주얼한 와인문화를 지 향하기 때문에 일상에서 와인을 편하게 즐기고 있습니다.

ering university students together. They disseminate a casual wine culture to people who think wine is difficult to follow or who have prejudices against wine. In order to give a chance to taste wine, they have successfully hosted events, preparing all the processes by themselves, such as hosting a total of three wine parties and managing a wine festival with Yeongcheon city.

People who join the party will have the pleasure of killing two birds with one stone by receiving prepared giveaways together with a variety of benefits offered by sponsors.

다섯 번째 이야기, ‘Standing Wine Party’

WineNV는 평범한 대학생들이 모여 조금 특별한 이야기 를 만들어가고 있습니다. 와인을 어렵게 생각하는 사람들 이 있기에, 와인에 대해 잘못된 편견을 가진 사람들이 있 기에 그들에게 캐주얼한 와인문화를 전파하고 있습니다. 와인을 쉽게 접할 계기를 만들기 위해 세 번의 와인파티를 주최하고, 영천시와인축제를 직접 주관하는 등 모든 과정 을 스스로 준비하여 성공적으로 행사를 마무리했습니다.

지난 2월에 이어 8월에도 NV의 새로운 이야기가 시작됩 니다. 이번 파티에서는 20대가 선호하는 음식과 다양한 와인의 마리아주를 경험하고 간단한 와인상식을 배울 수 있습니다. 또한 대구에서 활동하는 다양한 아티스트의 공 연과 스탠딩 파티를 통해 누구나 쉽게 교류할 수 있기 때 문에 기존의 클럽파티와는 다른 건전한 파티가 열릴 것입 니다. 파티에 참석하는 사람들에게는 후원업체가 제공하 는 다양한 혜택과 함께 준비된 경품도 받아 가는 등 일석 이조의 기쁨을 얻을 것입니다.

TrailBlasian: Black Women Living in East Asia Written by Kenya C. Evans

Blacks in Asia… No, it’s not a punch line to a joke. On the contrary, it’s the subject of a book. A travel book that shares the stories of 17 black Western women, from North America to South Africa, who decided to take the plunge and discover what their lives would be like living on the other side of the world (in South Korea, Japan, Indonesia, China and Thailand).

One of its kind (as far as we know), this book exists because “we” do. (As one of the women in the book I can attest that my understanding of life as a black woman living in Korea before coming here – which had me bug-eyed and bugged out – is completely different than the life I live now; a year and a half later, I can easily call Daegu my second home sweet home.) It also exists to show that black women are globe trotters bridging cultural gaps, taking international leaps of faith, and casting wider nets in terms of setting goals and realizing their potential. And so can you! This book is about trailblazing and discovery, whether you are on the trail or contemplating your first step at the side of the road.

The spirit of travel embraces the unknown and is guided by the hope that what greets us once we reach our destination is not only time and money well spent, but is a journey that will enrich our lives. The spirit of travel and the hope for better things to come were what the women in the anthology, TrailBlasian: Black Women Living in East Asia, were looking for.

Told in first-person, the women of TrailBlasian share their uncut versions of life in East Asia. They expose their insecurities, life lessons, laughter, challenges and dumb luck that happens when

52

traveling, including stories of love and romance; finance and social entrepreneurship; faith and religion; beauty and image; accidents and disasters; and reflection.

four-year degree, a clean criminal record, no STDs, and the ability to turn in paperwork – takes an immense amount of concentration and focus. That doesn’t just happen.”

This month, you can meet two of the writers, Kenya Evans and Melissa Watkins, who live in South Korea, and hear them read excerpts of their stories at book parties in Daegu (Sunday, Aug. 24, 5:30p.m. at Buy the Book Cafe) and Seoul (Saturday, Aug. 30, 2p.m. at SOMOS). Here are the kind of stories you can expect from the women in TrailBlasian:

Asia Nichols, American in Indonesia “I replaced thoughts of crashing and blood spatter with thoughts of cute little monkeys and picking out a sandy love nest. I gave our helmets a final tug and gripped Russ tight as the bike sputtered smoke then whipped into the road, headed for the Monkey Forest.”

Kenya Evans, American in South Korea “This road less traveled I impeded on, coming to Korea and the past four years of self-employment, should have led me to life’s treasures. I wanted to discover magic and fortune. And maybe I had. I just couldn’t see.”

Melissa Watkins, American in South Korea “Some of us are wearing a thin facade of self-esteem over a deep well of feminine hurt, and all it takes is one well-aimed verbal shot to rip away all of our carefully built beauty and peace.”

Their stories will surely inspire you, have you scratching your head (or shaking it), make you laugh out loud and, hopefully, encourage you to blaze your own trail of living an unscripted life and daring to dream.

So come out for the reading, but stay for the good food and lively conversation as we discuss what it’s like for expats and black women living in East Asia.

Here is the link to the Facebook event for the online edition: https://www.facebook.com/events/726701144056982/

Maggie Smith, American in South Korea “Her hands traced my face like she was looking at a portrait or a fine piece of art work for the first time. I felt fragile, like she was careful not to break me. ‘You have Malibu nose, this is the nose I want my doctor to make me.’”

Suseong Lake area is one of the classiest places in Daegu, a perfect date area. After taking your sweetheart out to a nice meal, I’d recommend Napoli, Ganga, La Bella Cucina or New York New York, take a stroll around Suseong Lake until you come upon the famous ‘duck boats’ and paddle your way into each other’s hearts. Thanks to the photogs who took the great pics you see here. Aygul Sarvarova, Jeremy Taylor and Chanel Barlow.

Suseong Lake area offers a change of pace to the hustle and bustle of downtown. Suseong Lake also boasts an amusement park (Suseong Land) reminiscent of those carnivals you went to with your parents at the local fair ground. There’s something to be said when you are on the back of the seahorse with a safety bar that barely locks you in place as you float for a few brief seconds in mid-air before being plunged back down in your seat. Thrilling, exhilarating are just a few choice words to describe the experience.

We hope you have an awesome time and try to enjoy and see as much of the market as possible. We would like to thank Dyren J. Billups-Adam for his photos of the different areas. Thanks bud!

Gajok Gajok means 'family' in Korean. That's the feeling you get when you step inside this wonderful Korean restaurant. Now, before you start to get a mental picture of the food it serves, just know that most of the meat is from the thigh and not the actual foot.

What??? Yes, Gajok serves pig's foot for dinner.. But it's not like you are eating the hoof of the pig. In Korea, the foot and leg seems to go hand in hand, so it is similar to eating drumsticks (chicken legs). Enjoy! Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions.

Daehan News / Two Ppul Grilled over an open flame. That's the concept behind Daehan News and Two Ppul.

After selecting your choice of steak or pork, a server really heats things up as it cooks your meat with a mini blowtorch. Sounds hot, right? The Korean sides provided compliment the meal perfectly. The interior of both restaurants is in true Korean 'pojang macha' style where dining around a stainless steel table with clear plastic walls sheltering you from the elements. So next time its Korean night, head on over to either of these meaty restaurants. Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions. <Daeghan News> 12PM~12AM • 053-423-3990 • 6, Dalgubeoldaeto446-gil, Jung-gu, Daegu <Two Ppul> 5PM~1AM • 053-422-1033 • 7-15, Dalgubeoldaeto446-gil, Jung-gu, Daegu

Pic&iq VIP treatment at Pic&iq is what you get when dining at this special restaurant. The owner and chef caters personally to your dinner party since you have to make a reservation before coming. Why, you might wonder? Pic&iq is only opened from 6-10pm, and you can call from 3pm to reserve one of four tables. The dinner is a set menu of grilled, marinated pork, tortilla bread, salad and grilled tomatoes and bananas. The chef also prepares a special ramyeon for the meal. VIP treatment without the VIP prices makes this a wonderful experience. Check out the Bangcheon Market Map on p59 for directions.

Kim Gwang-suk Road Not far from bustling downtown next to the Bangcheon Marketplace, Kim Kwang-suk Road is a lengthy alleyway that displays several murals and other small works of art upon its walls, dedicated to the popular Korean folk singer in the late 80’s and early 90’s, Kim Kwang-suk (1964~1996). He was well loved by the younger generations at the time for his soulful vocals and contemplative lyrics which deeply reflected the transition of Korea in late 80s. The area is quite isolated, taking you away from the busy and hectic city life, and dropping you into a surrealistic wonderland of art where time seems to be still for a moment.
