Unpredictable road ahead for United

By Darryl Coote GDUU\OFRRWH#MHMXZHHNO\ FRP

From Sept. 6 to 15 the island will host the 2012 World Conservation Congress (WCC), the largest conservation symposium of its kind. Over 10,000 environmental experts, scientists, former and incumbent heads of state, and Jeju residents are expected to attend.

Under the theme of Nature+ the congress will discuss ways to improve nature’s resilience particularly concerning the climate, food security, economic development, people and governance, and life.

The congress only occurs every four years, and it’s coming to Jeju.

But it’s been a long journey getting here.

In 1948, with a growing international need to protect nature, UNESCO (then helmed by Sir Julian Huxley) supported the creation of an international scientific body with an environmental mandate. On Oct. 5 of that year, at Fontainebleau, France, seven international organizations, 18 governments, and 107 national nature conservation organizations came together

and signed the Constitutive Act bringing into being the International Union for the Protection of Nature at what would become known as the first WCC. In the last 60 years, its name was changed to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), its focus has expanded and membership increased, and the congress has gone public. It is now the world’s largest conservation organization which hosts the world’s largest environmental forum. “In a world that looks very different from that of 1948, [the IUCN] needs to constantly modernize and adapt to rapidly changing circumstances, while at the same time staying true to its original mission and vision,â€? wrote IUCN Director General Julia Marton-Lefèvre, in a report.

And it appears to have done just that.

Four years ago, the WCC was held at Barcelona, Spain from Oct. 4 to 15, and was the most successful yet. “The Barcelona congress was the largest and most diverse event ever hosted by IUCN,� reads a Universalia Management Group evaluation report on the symposium.

On July 27, former lawyer and judge Kim Sun Woo was appointed Environmental and Economic Vice Governor for Jeju Special SelfGoverning Province.

This office is a large, multifaceted governmental entity which is essential to the future of the island’s sustainable development.

Among other areas, Kim is in charge of the Export Promotion Office, the Knowledge & Economy Department, the Environment Department, Agricultural & Seafood Products Department, Marine and Fishery Department, and the World Natural Continued on page 5

A park that lacks ‘three things’ and yet is so much more 6DPPX 3DUN LV D SODFH IRU SHRSOH LQ -HMX &LW\ WR H[HUFLVH UHOD[ DQG HQMR\

Jeju’s symbolic word sammu ( ) means that the island is devoid of three things common to most societies: thieves, gates, and beggars.

Tradition says that Jeju citizens have always trusted each other. They would never close their front gates to anyone and thus few would ever consider breaking into someone’s house. In addition, everyone on Jeju experienced hardships together, so if someone was without food, the entire village would share and thus alleviate the need for the poor to beg.

The island of Sammu has a park in Shin Jeju with the same name. “That park? There’s nothing special in that park!�

This is what taxi driver Jung Han Dong, a Jeju citizen with 23 years experience as a driver, exclaimed when I asked him about Sammu Park. It’s just a small park, he said, with many pine trees.

However, he could not explain why during the evening the park was always crowded — not only with Jeju residents but curious visitors as well. To understand its attraction, I went to the park — which is just south of Jeju International Airport — late one weekday afternoon.

Built on an area of 22,800m2 on the side of Beduri oreum in 1978, the park is equipped with badminton and basketball courts, sports equipment like exercise bikes, and a trail road for jogging.

Park I. K., one of several people using the exercise equipment on the day I visited, said that the convenience of the facilities is one of the benefits of the park. And he visits the park three or four times a week to exercise.

Inside the park near the top of Beduri oreum is Sammujeong, a two-story octagonal pavilion made in the traditional Korean style. It creates a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere with the surrounding pine trees and offers a place for visitors to rest.

Another landmark in the park is an old train fixed to the ground next to the basketball court. MIKA Steam Locomotive No. 304 (registered Cultural Heritage No. 414), the only steam locomotive for coal transportation left in Korea, was manufactured in Japan in 1944 during Japanese colonial rule and ran on Korean railroads until 1967. In 1978, on Children’s Day, it was sent to the park on instruction from former President Park Chung Hee, with the purpose of giving the children of

Jeju the opportunity to see trains in real life.

On a square bench under pine trees with a good view of the train, six seniors were chatting. Jeon Bok Ja said the park is the only place for her and her friends to get together, so every day they come early in the morning and stay until evening. They stay there all day except for during lunch.

Winter is no exception. “We come here even when it is snowing.

The sunshine warms the benches,� she said, adding, “It is cool here, the air is clean, and the wind is fresh.�

There is only one down side she mentioned; they cannot come on days when it rains, so she and her friends hope a waterproof tent or shelter will be installed.

Han Jae Deok, another regular to the park, talked about its safety. According to him, the park is usually loved by neighbors who know each other, which means that if somebody is in trouble help is literally right around the corner.

Han has been coming to the park every day for some quiet time. He said that this park offers him time to meditate. “When I see people jogging or reading I think about my life, even though I didn’t intend to at first,� he said.

Though small, Sammu Park is big enough to be a perfect place to exercise and relax. while interviewing people for more than an hour, I noticed that more and more people were coming to the park to exercise.

Now I understand why.

Continued from page 1 Almost 7,000 participants from 179 countries attended the 10-day symposium.

There were 970 events. The Members’ Assembly discussed 145 motions, a 30 percent jump from the 2004 WCC in Bangkok, Thailand.

Since then the IUCN has expanded marine areas under protection by 9,000 km, helped UNESCO to designate 12 World Natural Heritage sites, conducted a study that shows that biodiversity would be 20 percent worse without conservation actions, they are pioneering nature-based solutions for the world’s problems, they have advanced development on The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species and created The IUCN Red List of Ecosystems, and they have done more — much, much more.

Jeju — a World Heritage Site, a Biosphere reserve, and a member of the Global Geopark Network — has only

recently been involved with the IUCN becoming an official member in February 2008. At the same time, they applied to host the next WCC. In competition with Cancun, Mexico for the honor, Jeju launched a nationwide signature drive in August 2009 to show the IUCN that it has the support of the country. A month later, then-Governor Kim Tae Hwan presented IUCN Constituency Support Group Director Enrique J. Lahmann a book containing 1.3 million signatures. “The response from Jeju and Korea has been so overwhelming,� said John Kidd, head of global communications for IUCN in a March 2010 interview with The Weekly. “The fact that through the Korean Parliament, 1.3 million citizens signed a petition, the fact that every single member of the Korean Parliament committed to support the congress. All of these things and many more show a very strong

commitment from Korea and from Jeju to host this event.�

On Nov. 27, 2009, it was announced that Jeju would host the 2012 WCC, and become not only the first nonmetropolitan city to do so, but also the first city in East Asia to hold the event.

And the firsts kept coming. In the following years of preparation, as the congress began to take form, additions were made.

The World Leaders Dialogues will span five days during the congress and gives space to a five to six-member panel of former and incumbent heads of state to discuss possible solutions under the five themes of the 2012 Jeju WCC: Nature+ Climate, Nature+ Food Security, Nature+ Development, Nature+ People and Governance, and Nature+Life.

Another first in the congress’s 64 years is that ideas discussed during the forum (considered a marketplace of ideas open to

the public) will influence the decision making process during the Members’ Assembly, which is where conservation motions are voted on and if passed the IUCN implements the agenda.

The island plans to turn the event into a month-long festival and expand from the confines of the congress’s main venue, the International Convention Center Jeju, to 10 other sites around the island like the Jeju Haenyeo Museum, Halla Arboretum, and the World Natural Heritage Center.

With just a few weeks before Jeju plays host to thousands of international guests, the island is in final preparation mode.

And as Korea Organizing Committee Secretary General Kim Chong Chun told The Weekly at the end of April, it only has three goals; to make the congress “the world’s largest, the world’s best in terms of quality related to logistical matters and content, and the greenest. Those three we are now what we are trying to achieve.�

To read more about the topics referred to below, please go to the shortened URLs for articles on our Web site. — Ed. Yongmeori, or Dragon Head Cliff, is located along the coastline of Mt. Sanbang in the southwest of the island. It is one of nine Jeju sites certified by the Global Geopark Network (goo.gl/AEGjE). Geologically it is part of a tuff ring (goo.gl/44Zem) caused by basic volcanic activities; there are noticeably different volcanic layers of ash from several volcanic eruptions that flowed in different directions. A popular tourist attraction (goo.gl/xYtzA) for its undulating cliff walls and scenic views of the ocean, it is part of Olle trail No. 10, which is ranked fourth overall by The Weekly’s own Steve Oberhauser (goo.gl/NJNlB).

High-quality Korean language learning for a multicultural Jeju $Q LQWHUYLHZ ZLWK .LP -HRQJ :RR GLUHFWRU RI WKH -HMX 0XOWLFXOWXUDO )DPLO\ 6XSSRUW &HQWHU

Jeju Island is no longer an isolated place.

According to recent statistics released by the Ministry of Public Administration and Security, there are about 10,400 nonKoreans living on Jeju.

Since 2006 the population of nonKorean residents on Jeju has increased by 393 percent (then 2,645 people).

As Jeju continues working towards

becoming a multicultural society, integration and adaptation are going to be difficult yet important tasks for both communities to achieve and the Jeju Multicultural Family Support Center hopes to make this transition a little less bumpy. “The key to a multicultural society is having mutual communication between both parties,� said Kim Jeong Woo, director of the Jeju Multicultural Family Support Center, in an interview with The Jeju Weekly at his office in the Nohyeong area of Jeju City. “It should not be done in a unilateral way by forcing one party to assimilate into the other. A mutual understanding of each party is the key to a fully developed multicultural society.�

And one of the surest ways to promote understanding between two different cultures is to ensure that they are conversing in the same language. Because of this necessity the center’s main function is to teach Korean to multicultural families. “Learning Korean is the fastest way to adapt to Korean society. That is why we put a lot of emphasis into Korean education. It is especially pivotal to women for their children’s education,� Kim said. “At the same time, we also provide Chinese and Vietnamese language courses to increase the understanding of different cultures.�

Kim emphasized that multicultural residents should pursue Korean education even after having learned the basics of the language. Presently only a few of his students who have graduated from the center’s beginner class are enrolled in the intermediate level.

This worries Kim. “People ignore you when you cannot speak the local language. Worse than that, your children start to ignore you.�

He explained that the children of multicultural families who attend school and make friends pick up the language quickly. And if their parents do not learn the same language as the community their child is immersed in, then a rift could develop within the family. “It is a great humiliation for a parent when your kid scorns you because you are not fluent in Korean. Sadly, it frequently happens to multicultural family members,� he said.

Kim hopes that more multicultural parents will become enthusiastic about learning Korean, and not just for themselves but also for their children. “The language ability of children is mostly affected by their parents. The children of immigrants are easily ostracized from their peer groups because they are lacking in communication skills and are unable to follow their school classes,� Kim said.

Another worry stemming from Jeju’s transition to being multicultural is the fact that the island is seeing more tourists (especially from China), which makes it less necessary for non-Korean residents to learn Korean. “Especially, when it comes to the Chinese; they are not eager to learn Korean since scores of restaurants and cosmetic shops hire Chinese for the increasing amount of Chinese tourists.�

Currently the Multicultural Support Center is providing Korean language courses at the basic, beginner, and intermediate levels. The center also provides TOPIK (Test of Proficiency in Korean) courses for levels 1 through 6. “If an immigrant wants to have a midlevel job or enter a university in Korea, at least TOPIK level 4 certificate is needed,�

Kim said. “To be fully integrated into Korean society, I wish immigrants do not

settle for their current jobs or language ability but keep challenging themselves.�

In addition, the center provides the Korea Immigration & Integration Program (KIIP) organized by the Ministry of Justice. This accelerates the process to become a Korean citizen and awards extra points to those applying for permanent residency status.

Korean classes are open to those passionate about learning the language.

Whether a visitor, student, or preparing for citizenship, an Alien Registration Card is all that is needed to enroll — free of charge.

Though the center offers these classes, Kim said that studying Korean for two hours twice a week is not enough to become fluent. He advises students to “Keep talking with your spouse or other Korean co-workers and expose yourself to [Korean society].�

Joe Ok Ran, a Chinese national who has lived in Korea for 10 years, speaks Korean as perfectly as a native Korean. She now works at the Jeju Multicultural Family Support Center helping immigrants from China. Joe approaches the problems of the center’s visitors with first-hand experience of being an immigrant, and recommends that they “be diligent [when] learning the language. This is for yourself and your kids.�

Anyone can register for the Multicultural Family Support Center’s Korean language classes by visiting the office weekdays between 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. The spring semester starts from March and ends in July and the fall semester starts from August and ends in December. There are two two-hour classes per week. The first week of August to the third is a vacation period.

Continued from page 1 Heritage Site Conservation Commission.

Some of the sub-sections include major goals for Jeju like the Smart Grid, information policy, and environmental asset protection.

The 50-year-old Jeju native with a Yonsei University law degree, who has close ties to Governor Woo Keun Min, worked as a legal advisor for the province as well as for the Jeju Free International City Development Center (JDC). He also served on the board of directors for Jeju National University Hospital.

Previously he served on the bench at Seoul Central District Court, Incheon District Court, and Jeju District Court. In 1996 he opened his own law firm on Jeju.

The Jeju Weekly caught up with the busy new vice governor last week and asked him some preliminary questions by email.

Protecting Jeju’s environment while at the same time promoting economic growth is a pressing — if exceedingly difficult — task. What do you bring to the table regarding the vice governor post? How do you characterize your role in the job?

I applied for the position of vice governor because I decided that I can contribute to the [Jeju administration] by closely assisting the governor. Plus, the success of the fifth Jeju administration is related to benefits bestowed on the local community, which is also very meaningful to my life.

Until now, I have concentrated on my own personal work that in some respects meant I could not contribute a great deal to the local community. But through this new opportunity, I want to do something meaningful for the local community.

As the Environmental and Economic Vice Governor, I will work as a communication channel in a political aspect. At the same time, I will work hard to serve

The Jeju Weekly Jeju’s motto “First conservation, then development� from an environmental and economical angle by assisting the governor.

Looking at the official chart, which places your office in the context of the overall provincial government, the job of Environmental and Economic Vice Governor oversees a huge number of departments. How many people do you have on staff and what are the resources put to it?

I oversee one head office, four bureaus, two chambers, seven business offices, and one department. The number of employees that I oversee is 1,365 (including security guards and non-fixed term contract workers). This is out of the 3,467 people working for the provincial government (excluding Jeju City and Seogwipo City employees), or 39.4 percent of the province’s employees, which is paid for by local taxes and non-tax revenue.

Over the next few weeks and months, what will be your immediate tasks at hand? What kinds of problems do you anticipate you’ll face first?

As I said in my inaugural address, communication comes first when it comes to the tasks facing the provincial government.

I believe that there are no shortcuts when communicating with the public. I have to meet a lot of people and listen to their stories. That is the best way to achieve smooth communication. I think my relationship with the provincial council, which is the representative body of the inhabitants of Jeju Island, is very crucial. I am planning to construct a sincere partnership with the provincial council and frequently communicate with non-governmental organizations.

Though small, Namwon Elementary School dreams big and is nurturing its students to do the same. Some may even become movie directors and film stars.

The Dream Tree Film Art Camp, which was designed to provide cultural experiences to elementary school students during summer break, was held from July 27 to 30 at Namwon Elementary School, in Seogwipo City. The camp was hosted as a collaboration between the Shin Young Kyun Arts & Culture Foundation and Korea National University of Arts (KARTS).

Throughout the four-day camp, 65 students learned to write scripts, use cameras, scout for locations, design, and the art of the movie poster, all with the purpose of creating their own films. In six teams, the students shot music videos, melodramas, horror shorts, and even documentaries and commercials.

And on the final day of the camp all their hard work was screened for local residents.

In Focus/Education 05

The Shin Young Kyun Arts & Culture Foundation, which was established on a 50 billion won (US$44 million) donation from famed Korean film actor Shin and opened Oct. 5, 2011, helped create this camp to foster the love of film with younger generations. “The purpose of the foundation is to find talented movie industry workers and inspire children to be creative,� said camp coordinator Yoo Sung Hee. “In that sense, Dream Tree Film Art Camp is most suited to the vision of the foundation.�

On July 29, the third day of the camp, actors Shin Young Kyun, Ahn Sung Ki, and Park Chong Won visited Namwon Elementary School. “Creativity is the key to every single job in the 21st century,� Ahn Sung Ki, the foundation’s executive director and celebrated Korean actor, told The Weekly. “I know that not all students will work in the movie industry ... I just hope that the students improve their creativity by working together as friends.�

In 2008, as part of a central government initiative, Namwon Elementary School was designated as an “Art Flower Seed

At the same time, I will visit local residents at work and I will carefully listen to what they say and tell their stories to the Governor without omitting a single thing so that their complaints can be directly reflected to the administration.

The first duty that I am currently facing is the successful hosting of the World Conservation Congress [and a related local eco-festival] which is being held from Aug. 16 to Sept. 15 around the whole of Jeju Island.

For the success of the conference, the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province is preparing for the congress with three agendas.

One, to make the congress the most successful WCC yet.

Two, through the congress, establish a basic foundation for the development of Jeju Island including for its MICE industry and eco-friendly tourism.

And three, through all of these, establish a solid foundation for Jeju to become the World Environment Capital. [For more on

this project, go to goo.gl/euCVt for a previous article on the topic. — Ed.] To explain more specifically: Firstly, in the case of the 2008 Barcelona WCC 6,700 people participated but we are promoting the 2012 Jeju congress expecting that 10,000 people will attend.

Secondly, through the WCC, by strengthening the island’s basic infrastructure — including constructing 51 eco-culturetourism trails and eco-friendly convention facilities that use solar energy — we will develop MICE industry and make Jeju a world renowned environ-mentally friendly and culturally mean-ingful tourist site.

Thirdly, we are doing our best to promote Jeju’s environmental values and policies to the world environment leaders [and show] that we can make Jeju, which is a UNESCO Triple Crown, the World Environmental Capital.

School� by the Korea Arts & Culture Education Service, and has received 100 million won every year since to add any particular art form to their curriculum.

Namwon chose film.

And their decision has paid off. In the past three years, Namwon Elementary School has been awarded the grand prize at the Korea Youth Film Festival twice, in 2009 and 2011. Yoo said that the foundation selected Namwon Elementary School for this project because of its passion towards film and the fact that it has overcome its geographical isolation to pursue the craft.

The Weekly spoke with celebrated actor Shin Young Kyun about the camp and the foundation of his namesake.

“I am 85 years old,� said Shin. “This is a rare chance [for me] to meet this many young children. After seeing these children, I truly feel that I did something good for society.�

Kim Ga Young, a fifth grader at Namwon Elementary, dreams to be a director one day. “For the past four years, I learned how to shoot a film from scratch. Working as a director, I found out that it is very hard to lead people,� she said.

Another student in the same grade, Lee Hyae Ji, may not want to go into the business, but said, “It is still great fun to hang out with my friends and discuss stories. I especially feel great happiness whenever I finish a piece every semester.

So far, I have made three movies.�

Wind ensemble festival takes Jeju by storm ZLOO EH D Ň&#x160;PHPRUDEOH \HDU Ň&#x2039; VD\V -,:() RUJDQL]LQJ FRPPLWWHH PHPEHU +RQJ (XQD

Competition of Elementary School (specifically for Jeju Island schools), The 7th Jeju International Brass & Percussion Competition, and The 2nd International U-13 Band Contest. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s winners will be awarded money (only for the brass and percussion competition) and gold, silver, and bronze prizes by the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. (For the list of winners, please visit jiwef.org/ english/jiwef_12/sub_01.php).

On hand for the event were worldrenowned Belgian composer Jan Van der Roost who has composed almost 100 works, Belgian composer Jan Van

Landeghem, and Taiwanese trumpeter and the festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s artistic director Yeh Shu Han, as well as scores of other respected musicians. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We invited a very special composer,â&#x20AC;? said Hong, referring to Van der Roost. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the Korean people it is a very, very rare opportunity to meet him here â&#x20AC;Ś heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like a star in the composer field.â&#x20AC;?

On Aug. 15 at 7:30 p.m. at the Jeju Seaside Arts Center, Van der Roost conducted the Jeju Wind Orchestra â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which is composed of Jeju professional and university musicians â&#x20AC;&#x201D; during the Welcoming Concert, which Hong said is nothing short of an honor for Jejuâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s musicians. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a really great opportunity as a musician to meet the composer himself; I think that is very special,â&#x20AC;? she said, emphasizing that it is an â&#x20AC;&#x153;honor for the [Jeju Wind Orchestra] to be conducted by a very well-known composure.â&#x20AC;?

During the festival there were daily Brunch Concerts from Saturday, Aug. 11 to 17 at 11 a.m. by select participating bands at the Jeju Culture & Art Center in Jeju City, as well as two special concerts, one by Aeolus Brass Ensemble on Aug. 13 at the Jeju Culture & Art Center at 8 p.m., and the other by Spanish Brass â&#x20AC;&#x153;Luur-Metallsâ&#x20AC;? on Aug. 16 at the Jeju Culture & Art Center at 8 p.m.

These two ensembles were specifically invited to perform during the event.

On top of that, running from Aug. 11 to 17 there were two concerts daily (one at 3 p.m. and the other at 6 p.m.) at various locations throughout the island as part of the JIWEF for Locals program.

A total of 24 wind orchestras performed throughout the nine-day event.

sional musician from the KreisjugendOrchestra said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our orchestra visits Jeju every two yearsâ&#x20AC;? for this event.

He continued, with great pride for his orchestra, that though they are only a local group â&#x20AC;&#x153;it is very tough to get into our orchestra. We play high-quality classical music.â&#x20AC;?

He also commented on the happiness he felt being in Asia for the first time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Koreans are so friendly unlike the Germans who are very curt. I love Korea!â&#x20AC;?

The opportunity to watch this top-notch, high-quality festival might not have been possible without the efforts of Lee Sang Cheol, the vice chairman of the JIWEF organizing committee, who initiated the first JIWEF in 1995. He was easily noticeable during the concert, busily roaming around the site.

The Weekly asked him how he came up with an idea to host the JIWEF. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jeju is closely related to wind in every aspect.

Firstly, to look back in history, Jeju had its own wind ensemble band in the 1950s during the Korean war to soothe the souls of refugees,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding â&#x20AC;&#x153;secondly, Jeju has 27 wind ensemble bands out of 400 in Korea. It accounts for 8 percent of all Korean wind instrument bands, which proves that Jeju is walking at the forefront of the Korean wind instrument world.â&#x20AC;?

He lastly mentioned how Jejuâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s windy weather affected its hosting of wind

ensemble concerts saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;thirdly, it is better to have wind instruments playing rather than string instruments whose tunes are vulnerable to the windy weather.â&#x20AC;?

Asked what the festival means to him, Lee said it evokes in his mind the image of a flower â&#x20AC;&#x153;since flowers blossom after long preparation.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I go to the office every day to prepare for the festival even for three years in advance. Though it is short, but during the nine-day festival period, my years of effort blossom most beautifully. â&#x20AC;&#x153; Lee hopes that Korean musicians will start producing creative works for the festival. â&#x20AC;&#x153;JIWEF asked the German composer to write a song about Jeju, which was named â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Jeju Symphonyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and the Ulsan symphony orchestra just played the music beautifully. We also asked Jacob De Hann from the Netherlands to compose a song about the Jeju goddess grandmother Sulmundae. I hope we can hear songs composed by world-renowned Korean composers that lively depict Korea's traditional spirit.â&#x20AC;?

The concert provided the joy of coming together with others through sharing music along Jejuâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blue sea, and created for me another unforgettable melody about Jeju that will forever deeply flow in my mind.

In the Jeju International Wind Ensemble Festival (JIWEF)â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 17-year history, this summer was the first time that The Wind Ensemble Festival, The Wind Orchestra Festival, and The Brass & Percussion Festival were held simultaneously.

Previously, The Wind Orchestra Festival, which is geared toward audience enjoyment, was held every odd year while The Wind Ensemble Festival and The Brass & Percussion Festival, the compe-

tition leg of the event, were held every even one. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a very memorable year,â&#x20AC;? said Hong Euna, a member of the JIWEF Organizing Committee for the past 10 years, commenting on the change. She added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year we mixed it up and ma[de] a grand wind festival.â&#x20AC;?

During this nine-day festival, running until Aug. 18, roughly 1,500 musicians from all over the world descended on Jejuâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shores to not only compete against one another but to fill the air with beautiful music.

The festival contained the 10th Band

Blue melody drawn from the palette of Jeju

Under the starry night, with the breeze tickling my nose, jazz melodies filled the air. Families, couples, and friends all gathered at the Tapdong music hall on Aug. 10 to enjoy a perfect combination of wind and percussion music drawn from the palette of Jeju.

For the first day of the Jeju International Wind Ensemble Festival (JIWEF) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; running now until Aug. 18 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Ulsan University Symphonic Band from Korea and the Phoenix Foundation from Germany were the first two bands to take to the stage at the Jeju Seaside Art Center Concert Hall, Jeju City.

If the Ulsan University Symphonic Band drew classical melodies, Phoenix Foundation painted an electric funky jazz sound with guitars, piano, and drums.

Over 500 people watched the performance including 70 members of the KreisjugendOrchestra from Ludwigsburg, Germany who were on hand to cheer on their

An unforgettable memory from my childhood is going on an excursion to the river close to my village with my family and friends. The stream, which is five minutes away from my house by car, runs through dense woods with water clear and cool as ice. There, as I was paddling, I heard one mischievous boy say that there was a giant waterfall further upstream, at the point where the river began.

I asked my mother if it was true. She informed me that yes, there was a waterfall where a frightening water ghost lived, a specter willing to take unwitting children who had wandered into the stream. I now realize my mother had said that to prevent her seven-year-old daughter from going off through the dark trees and thorny bushes to see the waterfall. Of course I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go and explore the waterfall because I thought I was the stubborn sort of kid the water ghost had a particular taste for.

Later, when I attended elementary school, I was taught that the stream was called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Akgeuncheon,â&#x20AC;? and the name of the waterfall located in the streamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s upper region was â&#x20AC;&#x153;Eongtto.â&#x20AC;?

However, it took about 20 years more for me to decide to finally go there.

After arriving by car, I began the walk along the trail road made of lined wooden boards, which lead to the waterfall. As I walked through a greentinged tangerine farm, I could hear the sound of water and after about three

minutes of trekking, I could see the 50-meter-high Eongtto Waterfall. The giant cliff, which was colored grey, dark purple, and orange, made a marvelous scene as it reflected in harmony with a small pool and the surrounding warm temperate forests.

But there was no water flowing.

That is the characteristic that makes this waterfall special. People visiting here expect to see water continuously flowing. However, the water coursing over the cliff is only visible when there is over 70 mm of rain in the mountains. On the day I visited, I could see some people around sigh with disappointment.

In the 15 minutes I stayed in front of the waterless waterfall, I saw around 19 people, 16 of whom were tourists.

This showed its new-found popularity as previously, Eongtto Waterfall was a little-known spot in Seogwipo until a famous TV entertainment program â&#x20AC;&#x153;One Day Two Nightsâ&#x20AC;? introduced it to tourists.

Lee Myoung Ju from Seoul, who was visiting Jeju with his family, said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even though I knew we wouldn't see water here today, we came to see the beautiful scenery â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;One Day Two Nightsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; showed.â&#x20AC;?

Another tourist, Kim Hee Jeong from Kimhae, said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This cliff is beautiful enough itself. I have no idea how wonderful it will be when it rains.â&#x20AC;?

As one who can remember the story of the water ghost from my childhood, I thought I would visit here the next time it rains heavily and let Kim Hee Jeong know how gorgeous Eongtto really can be.

According to local legend, seven nymphs used to secretly arrive at midnight to enjoy some outdoor bathing at a pond called Cheonjeyeon, a place which translates as “the pond of the Gods.”

Another well-known supernatural bathing place is the waterfall at Cheonjiyeon, meaning “the pond of heaven and the earth.” While the gathering of nymphs is a favorite theme in the ancient stories of the ponds of Jeju, local legend also describes the existence of other mystical beings inhabiting the island’s waterfalls.

An example is the Jeongbang Waterfall. Known as the only waterfall that falls directly to the sea in Korea, ancient Jeju legend has it that a powerful dragon, whose spirit has cured illnesses and caused rain to fall during a drought, lives here.

Cheonjiyeon, Cheonjeyeon, and Jeongbang Waterfall, Jeju’s top three waterfalls, are well-known as important tourist attractions on the island. Tourists who come to see the pouring cool water of the waterfalls marvel at the beauty of nature, however equally as interesting are the legends that surround these places.

There are only a few waterfalls on Jeju because the island consists mainly of basalt with the water sinking into the ground. However, during the rainy season, many dormant waterfalls come to life, for example Eongtto Waterfall, the best of the well-known mysterious waterfalls of Jeju.

Eongtto Waterfall This waterfall will not spring to life until after at least 70 mm of rain has fallen.

Eongtto is a combined name with Eong, a Jeju dialect word for rock, and Tto, Jeju dialect for entrance. The height of the waterfall is 50 meters and it exists around a warm-temperate forest. Eongtto Waterfall is located near Seogwipo City, and is equipped with an observatory and Olle walking trail No. 7-1 passes nearby.

d of the Gods Samdan Waterfall Seonnyeo Waterfall Seonnyeo is a fairy in Korean. According to a fairy tale, Seonnyeo took a bath in this waterfall.

This waterfall is located in the middle of Aheunahopgol valley near Eoseungsaeng oreum in Mt. Halla and a temple, Chunwangsa, is located nearby. However, Seonnyeo Waterfall is not easily accessible because it is in the heart of the valley. The river flows to the Eoseunsaeng catchment area, which is an important source of water for Jeju citizens. Photo by Oh Hee Sam

Samdan Waterfall, located on Tamna valley, comes in three sections. The first cascade of Samdan falls is 15 meters high and the water then flows farther along to form the second 3 meter high fall of water. The last cascade of Samdan fall is 7 meters high. Tamna valley, which is 300 meters deep, is the most dangerous valley on Jeju Island and is a restricted area.

Seongneol Waterfall Seongneol Waterfall is located on Seongneol oreum. The water flows to a catchment area, which is a water source for Namwon in Seogwipo City. This waterfall has also been declared a restricted area. Photo by Oh Hee Sam

Ikki Waterfall Rain Waterfall The aptly-named Rain Waterfall, located in Yeongsil valley on Mt. Halla, also appears after a rainfall. The waterfall is visible from the Yeongsil hiking trail. There is a temple, Jonjaam, under the waterfall which was used as a base camp to climb the mountain as an escape route for those exiled from the mainland in the Joseon Dynasty. Photo by Oh Hee Sam

Ikki Waterfall is located on Y valley, which is also a catchment area, so it too is not accessible. The height of this waterfall is 3 meters. Ikki means moss in Korean and it surrounded this waterfall before disappearing during a typhoon.

Situated just off the south coastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Olle trail No. 7 is an adorable cafĂŠ called Ollae yo Coffee, a quaint little place serving delicious drinks, scrumptious snacks, and a dazzling ocean view. Opening doors in June 2009, cafĂŠ owner Min Kyung Chun dishes up a delicious experience as visitors take in the grandeur that is Seogwipo Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coastline.

The menu offers the following assortment of beverages and delicious goodies: espresso, Americano, cafĂŠ latte, cappuccino, caramel mocha, caramel macchiato, cafĂŠ Vienna, hot chocolate, green tea latte, sweet potato latte, peach and lemon ice teas, lemon tea, blue lemonade, citron tea, green tea, fresh kiwi juice, tomato juice, strawberry juice,

yogurt shakes, fruit smoothies, pretzels, buns, waffles, toast, and churros.

Min is particularly proud of her coffee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I only use coffee beans roasted on Jeju,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am sure that our coffeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taste is the best, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m proud of that. I hope people visiting here would know that they are drinking the most delicious coffee in the world.â&#x20AC;?

In addition to drinks and snacks, customers can partake in making pottery organized and supervised by resident sculptor Ko Eun Young. Customers interested in pottery can purchase clay through Ko, and they are free to use her tools and guidance in creating their own masterpieces. Ko blasts customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; work in her kiln and helps glaze them. This pottery experience varies in price depending on how much clay customers want, but it typically ranges from 10,000 won to 20,000 won and this should be

paid for up front.

Ko has reserved a special place in the shop to keep customer projects that are in progress, and her work can be found throughout the shop as all of the plants reside in Koâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pots. She also has a beautiful display of her work in the sculpting studio, and most of it is for sale.

Min is particularly proud of this sculpting program because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inexpensive and her cafĂŠ does not charge a lecture fee like other sculpting studios. Customers are free to come and go as they please, continuing their projects whenever their schedules permit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a really special place because [the sculpting studio is] nestled in the middle of this coffee shop,â&#x20AC;? said Rebecka Louis, a regular customer that visits on average three to four times a week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have the flow of people that are intrigued by what you are doing in the center, and they are looking and are seeing the art that has been made and what you are working on currently. The women that work there are so friendly, easy going and warm, and they will just bring me things to eat. Even though there is a language barrier, we still connect with each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s warmth and humor. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wonderful way to spend a few hours several times a week.â&#x20AC;?

Ko, who gets the greatest pleasure from seeing customers pleased with their work, encourages people to visit Ollae yo Coffee for drinks and sculpting saying that, â&#x20AC;&#x153;sculpting is not very technical â&#x20AC;Ś People can enjoy it just as a hobby without the burden, and they can make it as they want and from their own ideas. So if [people] have time, they should come over, sculpt and enjoy drinking tea. People can make not only plates or cups but also tiles too.â&#x20AC;?

Burger Trip, a name inspired by the variations of ingredients enjoyed on burgers around the world, is open for business in Shin Jeju, Jeju City.

The interior of this trendy spot has a clean, industrial look with splashes of color and an open kitchen inviting customers to converse with chefs behind the counter. Menus are English friendly, with additional picture descriptions available on iPads.

Both Korea natives, Chef Lee Hyun Sek and Chef Lee Joon Ho met in Sydney, Australia while training at Le Cordon Bleu culinary arts school. With a shared passion for cooking and a love for creative but â&#x20AC;&#x153;proper burgers,â&#x20AC;? the pair decided to return to Jeju and make a business out of their talents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t many places on Jeju to get a proper burger,â&#x20AC;? said Chef Joon Ho. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to bring the flavors we love

to Jeju, so I asked him to come here with me and open this restaurant,â&#x20AC;? said Chef Hyun Sek, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I chose Jeju because it is my home. I want to be near my family.â&#x20AC;?

The pair takes pride in using Jeju local ingredients to prepare their burgers with, what they call, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the golden ratioâ&#x20AC;? of ground meat to fat.

These all-beef patties weigh in at 150 grams before cooking. This makes for a thick, juicy burger that holds its shape, unlike other burgers Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve tried since arriving to Korea.

Currently there are four burger selections on the menu with prices ranging between 7,700 won to 9,300 won. Each burger is inspired by a different part of the world from a classic â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Americanâ&#x20AC;? burger, to the more adventurous â&#x20AC;&#x153;Viva!

Mexicoâ&#x20AC;? burger that comes topped with lettuce, jalapenos, nachos, salsa, and colby jack cheese.

A tribute to Jeju, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mt. Hallaâ&#x20AC;? burger is the most expensive, but also the most popular choice on the menu. This Continued on page 14

Before opening Ollae yo Coffee, Min, a Seogwipo native, spent 20 years on mainland Korea where she studied Korean food and worked as a chef. While she specialized in traditional Korean dishes, there was a special place in her heart for baking. Min returned to Seogwipo to marry her husband, whom she was introduced to by her aunt.

A fan of the Olle trails, Minâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first idea was to volunteer to build and maintain a restroom along Olle trail No. 7 as rest stops are limited along some of the courses. Before construction, her plans changed after generating some ideas with friends, and she decided to build a cafĂŠ instead that also provides Olle hikers with amenities like clean restrooms, a hot shower, and a place to settle down with a nice beverage. On June 4, 2012, Min opened a pension just down the street from Ollae yo Coffee called Ollae Resort.

This beautiful pension also features magnificent views, a hip modern interior, and several potted plants with pots sculpted by Ko. Ollae yo Coffee is a little ways off the beaten path, but it is worth the trip and possible to reach by walking south on the large boulevard by E-mart for approximately 15 minutes. Once reaching the next major street, Coffee yo Ollae is visible on the right. As there are almost no other establishments in the area, this little escape to heaven is hard to miss.

Strengths: Yes, there a lot of places to see and many English signs along the way and three incredible oreum in Sarabong, Byeoldobong, and Wondangbong. But...

Weaknesses: It does not seem like an Olle course because, once again, this is a fringe course (transitional) heading east out of Jeju City wanting, but taking too long, to reach the country.

Strengths: No need to repeat all the superlatives for Chujado. If a potential hiker has a weak stomach, the highspeed ferry to the island is going to be a gamble. Prepare ahead of time for all sea conditions. Even the most harrowing ride over will be a mustdo trip to experience this islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grandeur. An Olle climb puts a whole new perspective to an otherwise superb piece of land known for yellow corvina.

Weaknesses: Too small to even hint at. Limiting the number of Olle walkers in the future will prove proof

positive to guarantee Chujadoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bragging rights do not diminish. Too many people will be a bane. Dare mentioning, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s many stumps on the newly cut courses, a problem that can be remedied.

Concert Review

The man who made Korean hip-hop history .LP -LQWDH DND 9HUEDO -LQW SURPLVHV WR UHWXUQ WR -HMX QH[W \HDU

By Kim Hyo Jeong LQWHUQ K\RMHRQJNLP #JPDLO FRP

On Aug. 4, while waiting in line out front of the Jeju Arts Center in Jeju City, a young man was boasting about how difficult it was for him to get a ticket â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even a month in advance â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for that nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Verbal Jint concert.

For the uninitiated, Korean hip-hop is divided into two eras: before the arrival of Kim Jintae â&#x20AC;&#x201D; aka Verbal Jint â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and after.

Debuting in 1999, the man is credited as the first artist to apply rap rhythms in Korean, changing the face of music here forever.

So it is understandable that procuring tickets a month in advance would not be an easy task.

The concert promoting his latest album â&#x20AC;&#x153;10 Years Of Misreading,â&#x20AC;? which came out on June 21, started at 7 p.m. Standing on stage in front of the audience, Verbal Jint said that with this album he wanted to resolve all the misunderstandings people have about him. He said that he hated how over the past 12 years the media has solely focused on his rhyming and rapping abilities, ignoring the fact that he writes and performs music in several genres.

He started the 100-minute concert with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Putting Something Like Oil?â&#x20AC;? and for those who were expecting a high-energy concert, they would have been sadly disappointed. It was not a â&#x20AC;&#x153;put your hands-up and say yeahâ&#x20AC;? atmosphere, but rather one that roused sympathy and

sadness from the audience over breakups, love, and life. Verbal Jint was not concerned that night about putting on a performance to excite the audience, but instead he focused on conveying the message of his music.

During the evening he sang â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I Feel Love,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gone,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Perfect Day,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Please Console the Boy,â&#x20AC;? and many others, and his voice was low and stable like black morning coffee which wakes the audience and soothes the soul.

When he sang â&#x20AC;&#x153;You Look Okay,â&#x20AC;? which is about a former couple meeting on the Han River Bridge, the audience started to sing along. The popularity of this song from his 2009 album â&#x20AC;&#x153;False Chargeâ&#x20AC;? proves that he can appeal to mainstream audiences while at the same time being considered an underground singer.

The concert began to get interesting when pop group Phantom, which are under the same production company Brand New Music, took to the stage.

During the concert, Verbal Jint made jokes which cracked the entire audience up. He said that he found a very sexy traditional dish name here in Jeju which he referred to as â&#x20AC;&#x153;body soupâ&#x20AC;? (momguk in Korean).

Verbal Jint promised the audience that he would visit Jeju again next year, which brought the locals to their feet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Usually after having this kind of memorable performance, I write five or six songs in a few days,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Soon, I might write a song about Jeju, so donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t miss it.â&#x20AC;?

www.jejuweekly.com

Verbal Jint is a combination of the word â&#x20AC;&#x153;Verbâ&#x20AC;? and the musicianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first name â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jintae.â&#x20AC;? Verbal Jint was on the TV program â&#x20AC;&#x153;Show Me the Moneyâ&#x20AC;? in which eight Korean rappers competed musically for prize money. Verbal Jint is also well known for his intellect; he graduated with an economics degree from Seoul National University and was accepted into law school at Hanyang University, though he is currently taking time off from his studies.

Unpredictable road ahead for Jeju United

By Dave Cunning FRQWULEXWRU#MHMXZHHNO\ FRP

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crunch time for Jeju United, and the pressure isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t likely to recede any time soon.

While attempting to stand their ground among the middle of the pack of the K-League standings, and stave off threats to their bid for a spot in the championship round, Jeju has had to shuffle some personnel around to bolster their offense.

Fans may have noticed the absence of striker Robert de Pinho de Souza on the field for Jeju â&#x20AC;&#x201D; reports say that Robert had difficulties adjusting to life in Korea, and as a result he has parted ways with the club.

The 31-year-old only appeared in 12 games for Jeju this season â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one of them in particular, against the Pohang Steelers on April 14, he did not take to the field at all. In total, he scored three goals, finding the net for the first time in his fifth game.

However, his last two goals each proved to be game winners (April 7 versus Daegu and April 29 versus Gyeongnam, his last

game). The Brazilian native has since joined CearĂĄ Sporting Club in his home country.

Robertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s departure paved the way for the arrival of Renan Augustinho Marques, another Brazilian. Renan, another striker, has appeared in three games for Jeju as of Aug. 15, and made his home field debut during Jejuâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2-0 loss to Gwangju on Aug. 11. The 29-year-old was acquired from Paulista FC of Brazilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Paulista A1 league, where he previously had played 14 games this season. Those matches in Brazil saw him record two goals, three yellow cards, and one red card. He has yet to score for Jeju United, but certainly will be looked upon to do so as the regular season draws to a close, and the result of their remaining games increases tenfold.

Jeju currently sits in second place in K-League goals for with 52, due largely in part to strikers Santos Jr. and Jair, who are tied for third in K-League individual goals with 13. Additionally, Seo Dong Hyeon is in 12th with nine goals. However, Jeju United are a lowly 11 th in goals

against, with 38, out of the 16 teams in the league. Luckily for Jeju, those numbers still leave them with a +14 goal differential; the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third best.

Those positives being said, their current 41 points and sixth place seeding leaves them in a rather precarious position â&#x20AC;&#x201D; they are tied with the Pohang Steelers, and also one point behind Busan Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Park for fifth, but are idling only five points ahead of eighth place Daegu, and seven points ahead of ninth place Gyeongnam. The latter two teams could both theoretically still jump out of relegation to catch them, and knock Jeju out of a qualification spot.

On the flip side, Jeju could also mathematically ascend in the standings as high as third, though such a result is not likely to occur. Their next four games are against second place Jeonbuk Motors on the road (Aug. 19), 11th place Seongnam at home (Aug. 23), 10 th place Incheon United on the road (Aug. 26), and seventh place Pohang Steelers on the road (Sept. 1).

Jeju has yet to beat powerhouse Jeonbuk

this year, recording a loss and a draw in their previous meetings this season, both at Jeju World Cup Stadium. Jeju played Seongnam to a 1-1 draw in their last meeting back in May, posted wins over Incheon in both games (also both at home), and traded wins with Pohang in two previous matches.

Realistically, all four upcoming matches are must-win scenarios, but more so against Pohang, who are the most direct threat to Jeju Unitedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s positioning in the standings. While Jeju should be able to beat over three teams that are ranked lower than them, losing to lower seeded clubs has been an all too common occurrence this year. Winning these upcoming contests will by no means be a forgone conclusion, especially considering Jeju is winless in their last five K-League matches.

I met Dave Cunning a couple weeks back. He came to The Weeklyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office looking to write about sports. Usually I meet people about town and ask them if they want to write for us. But with Dave, he was one of the few who actually came to me.

Soon after, I learned that Dave and I have some things in common. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re both

Continued from page 11 mountain of a meal is topped with hearty, red bean and beef chili, lettuce, jalapeno, and melted colby jack cheese. The flavor of the chili is balanced between the sweet beans and onion with a spicy bite in the aftertaste.

Burger Trip offers a set-deal option starting at 11 a.m. and ending at 4 p.m. that adds 2,500 won to any meal for potato wedges and soda, or 3,500 won for potato wedges and a draft beer. All meals come with a side of kimchi and a small, tangy house salad.

Also available is a Burger Trip pasta dish (11,000 won) with tomato, chili, and jalapenos as well as side orders of beef chili wedges and nachos. Additionally, the menu offers a selection of flavored coffees, homemade juices, milkshakes, a variety of beers including Guinness and Heineken, and surprisingly Dr. Pepper soda (very infrequently seen on the island).

Canadian, we both write for newspapers, and we both played hockey â&#x20AC;&#x201D; though, impressively, Dave played professionally.

In early August I sat down with Dave over a couple of beers to talk shop. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well, if you want to get technical,â&#x20AC;? Dave said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started writing in college. I mean it was something that everybody does.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re writing a hundred papers a year and it just gets to the point where either you get good at it or you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.â&#x20AC;?

And then he found blogging. The

freedom it offered him to express whatever was on his mind was a nice break from the rigidity of essays.

In 2006, Dave, who only recently became engaged, took blogging with him to France where he went to play professional hockey for Lyon H.C. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was one of the things I wrote [about]; I was writing about my experience. I was away from everyone I knew â&#x20AC;Ś and I was just alone with a computer and I wanted to tell people what was going on and I just wrote.â&#x20AC;?

To play hockey at the professional level, he said, was one of his greatest accomplishments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I always wanted to play pro hockey. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not something that everybody gets to say [they did].â&#x20AC;?

After that season he went home to Kelowna, British Columbia, where the transition from sport to a regular job wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t easy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tough when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve spent your life pursuing a dream and ... [itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s] the only thing that matters and then youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing something that couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter less.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working for a paycheck, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working to get by. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s awful.â&#x20AC;?

Since he hung up his skates, writing has been a way for Dave to stay in touch with the game he loves. He is still just as invested he said, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just from a different perspective.

And though it may not seem like it at first, for Dave there are two main similarities between writing and hockey â&#x20AC;&#x201D; passion and practice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you latch on to a story that you love, your best comes out. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that different from the game of hockey. When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re tuned into the game, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve trained, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve practiced, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done a million pushups, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done a million wind sprints, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ve done everything because you want to be the best at the game.â&#x20AC;?

The same is true with writing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you half-ass a story itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to show up pretty quick,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The first story Dave wrote (and was paid for) for the Kelowna Daily Courier shows where these two disciplines intersect.

He visited a Kelowna Rockets practice

and saw the players in line, just stick handling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was just like a hockey school,â&#x20AC;? he said. Just the basic back and forth from foot to foot.

And for Dave that was the hook for his story. These players, who were one step below the NHL, were doing drills for children just learning the game and he wanted to show that the game doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change much from minor to professional hockey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that different from writing,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The best writers probably write every day, probably two or three times a day, or more. We put this crazy interpretation or perception on professionals of any genre that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing these mystical things that normal people canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do and at the end of the day they just have been doing them consistently, and long enough, to be in really good practice to do them well.â&#x20AC;?

Along with The Weekly, Dave writes as a contributor for the Kelowna Daily Courier, BetOnHockey.com, and The Scoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Backhand Shelf. For these publications heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interviewed some pretty big names in the hockey world like Pat Quinn and Mark Recchi. But to Dave, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like to think every interview is my biggest one. You never know what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to hear, you never know what you get to write, and you never know who is going to read what you get to write.â&#x20AC;?

Impressively, from Jejuâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shores he is writing once a month for the Kelowna Daily Courier.

For Dave and his wife, Karma, this has been their second foray to Korea to teach English. They were originally in Geoje Island, near the mainland. They left for a year and came to Jeju this past March, and so far it seems to be agreeing with him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to keep writing. I want to keep training. I want to keep doing the things I love. I want to keep doing the things Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m passionate about. If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an opportunity to keep doing that on Jeju then yeah we very well might stay longer. Like I said this place is beautiful. Jeju has so many things to offer for my wife and myself; everybody really.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love this burger; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crazy and fantastic,â&#x20AC;? said Jeju resident Moon Jeong Wook.

These generously portioned and awesomely messy burgers reminded me of the Western-style meals I grew up loving.

The only thing missing was dill rather than a sweet pickle on my classic American burger. Add to this a simple strawberry, vanilla, or Belgian chocolate milkshake that they offer and you have a meal that could satisfy any palate hungry for a taste of the West.

Both chefs say they plan to expand their menu and dream of someday opening additional Burger Trip locations around Korea.

Entertainment/What's New 15 the TV show â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Moon that Embraces the Sun,â&#x20AC;? 2012), a rookie thief; and Paepsi.

However, thieves will be thieves, and the scheme doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go as planed with each character trying to steal the diamond for himself.

The story might bring to mind the remake â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oceanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Elevenâ&#x20AC;? (2001), directed by Steven Soderbergh starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, and every other famed face of that year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Thieves,â&#x20AC;? like â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oceanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eleven,â&#x20AC;? is a sprawling heist flick set in a casino with a star ensemble cast attempting to steal a diamond. However, where the two diverge is, as director Choi has said to criticism of him copying the Western film, that each of his characters have their own hidden scheme, while â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oceanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;sâ&#x20AC;? heist relies upon the unity of its members. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Thievesâ&#x20AC;? is similar to Choiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previous works â&#x20AC;&#x153;The War of Flowerâ&#x20AC;? (2008) and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Resurrection of a Crimeâ&#x20AC;? (2004) in that the audience needs to piece together clues to see the filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bigger picture, like a jigsaw puzzle. This keeps the audience guessing through 10 different plot lines about which thief will actually have the diamond at the end of the film.

Movie Review

10 different puzzle pieces, and one answer

By Kim Hyo Jeong LQWHUQ K\RMHRQJNLP #JPDLO FRP

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Thievesâ&#x20AC;? (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Doduk Deulâ&#x20AC;? in Korean) is like bibimbap; a heavenly dish of mixed vegetables and rice enjoyed by Koreans from all walks of life. And like bibimbap, this film has a diverse assortment of ingredients in its ensemble cast that will tantalize most palates.

Even before its release, way back during pre-production, the film was garnering a lot of attention due to its star-studded cast of experienced actors, each known for their own distinctive acting styles. In this film we see Kim Hye Soo, Jeon Ji Hyun, Lee Jung Jae, Kim Yoon Seok, and Kim Soo Hyeon come together for a spectacle of a movie that was shot in Macau, Hong Kong, Seoul, and Busan.

Month-long eco-festival to transform 2012 World Conservation Congress

www.jejuweekly.com

2YHU JRYHUQPHQW VSRQVRUHG SURJUDPV WR GHOLJKW LVODQGHUV DQG YLVLWRUV WKURXJK PLG 6HSWHPEHU From Aug. 16 to Sept. 15, an islandwide eco-festival is being held in tandem with the upcoming World Conservation Congress (WCC) next month. For 31 days at 11 sites, over 700 programs will be held including workshops, exhibitions, seminars, and field trips. The purpose of this festival is to encourage both tourists and island residents to actively participate in the WCC, running from Sept. 6 to 15, and to create a community atmosphere on the island.

The upcoming Jeju WCC will be different from past congressâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in that, with the addition of this festival, it will be transformed from simply a twoweek conference into a month-long carnival under the slogan â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jeju Trip Communicating with the World for 31 Days.â&#x20AC;?

The festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 11 sites are Halla Arboretum, the Sulmundae Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Center, Jeju National Museum-Sinsan Park, Jeju World Natural Heritage Center, the Haenyeo Museum, Seongsan Ilchulbong, Jeju Stone Park, Seogwipo Citrus Museum, Seogwipo Natural Recreation Forest, Cheonjiyeon Waterfall, and Jeju Museum of Contemporary Art. (For specific information about the programs and the specific locations, please visit each locationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Web site).

The programs for the festival are divided into three categories; a special program, a family and student participation program, and Jeju Island

In this heist tale the object of desire is the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tear of the Sun,â&#x20AC;? a US$20 million diamond which is presumably hidden on the top floor of a Macau casino. Scheming mastermind Macao Park (Kim Yoon Seok, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Chaser,â&#x20AC;? 2008) recruits 10 thieves â&#x20AC;&#x201D; six from Korea and four from China â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to steal the coveted diamond. By casting Chinese movie stars Simon Yam (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Midnight Beating,â&#x20AC;? 2010) and Angelica Lee (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sleepwalker,â&#x20AC;? 2011), it seems that director Choi Dong Hun (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jeon Woo Chi,â&#x20AC;?

2009) is trying to lure Chinese audiences to the Korean movie market.

Macao Park, known for having won an eye-popping sum in a single night at a Macao casino, suggests to Popeye (Lee Jung Jae, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Housemaid,â&#x20AC;? 2010) that together they steal the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tear of the Sun.â&#x20AC;?

However, Popeye and Macaoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relationship has been strained ever since they fought

festivals during the WCC period.

Special Programs From Aug. 17 to Sept. 15, the Green Film Festival Forest Movie Theatre will be held at the Halla Arboretum Grass Plaza.

On every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, award-winning environmental films from Korea and abroad will be screened at the Sulmundae Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Center.

Talk Concert with Famous Figures, a series of 11 discussions in an open forum format, will be held from Aug. 17 to Sept. 11.

The Fireworks Festival with the Star Light will be held on Aug. 18 at Cheonjiyeon Waterfall in Seogwipo City.

Various Korean traditional performances will be shown from Aug. 24 to 26 at Jeju Stone Park providing visitors the chance to experience tightrope walking and playing Korean percussion instruments.

The Multicultural Family Festival will provide various international foods from Aug. 25 to 26 at Jeju National Museum.

From Sept. 1 to 2, The 2012 Jeju Live Music Festival Space Sympathy will be held at the Cheonjiyeon Waterfall in Seogwipo City. Between 4 p.m. and 10 p.m. bands, hip-hop performers, breakdancers, and opera singers will show off their talents for the viewing pleasure of the audience.

If you are craving Korean food, there will be a cooking competition, a food court, and a food theme exhibition held at the International Convention Center Jeju, Seogwipo City from Sept. 9 to 15.

There will also be various participatory programs for the whole family.

Can ecosystems really make a difference before it is too late?

1DWXUH IRRG &DQ ZH IHHG WKH ZRUOG VXVWDLQDEO\" IRUXP The worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population is ever growing, and we have many more mouths to feed than we did just 50 years ago. How can we protect biodiversity while making sure everyone has enough to eat?

1DWXUH GHYHORSPHQW *UHHQ JURZWK P\WK RU UHDOLW\" IRUXP Is it possible to keep growing without pushing the earth beyond its natural limits? On this panel, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about green growth and whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s achievable or just an illusion.

1DWXUH SHRSOH &DQ FRQVHUYDWLRQ WDFNOH SRYHUW\" IRUXP Nature is the backbone of our very existence. But nature and the resources we glean from it are not shared equally. What is the best way for us to protect the environment while simultaneously allowing poorer nations to prosper?

1DWXUH 6DYLQJ QDWXUH ZK\ ERWKHU" IRUXP Climate change, conservation, protection, global consensus: the issues facing our world now are massive and global. Are the problems just too big to do anything about?
