Abstract

This article discusses the possibility for film to do history, the ways in which films might do history differently than written history, and how a film depicting history might be speaking of the present - as these issues apply to three contemporary Korean films set in the early twentieth-century Korean colonial period and which represent a recent radical shift in the portrayal of this particular era. Of particular interest is how modernity and colonization are depicted in the three films.
