Korean Folk Music is a pretty neat class. There are two different types of drums you can play the Janggu and Buk. The sounds of the Janggu and Buk are inspired sounds from nature. I have this class on a long day so it helps relieve stress (if you have any) and put some energy back into your day!
Intercultural Performance is a dance class. We get to learn other cultures through different types of dance styles. So far I have learned Salsa, African & Korean Traditional dance. It has been a very fun class, super difficult because I am not much of a dancer but super fun none-the-less. The teacher is amazing and is a ridiculously talented dancer.
Lastly Introduction to Korean Film! Another aspect of learning about Korean culture through film studies. This class is pretty neat because the teacher picks themes for the week and then a movie he thinks displays the theme well. Also after the movie a group will present about the topic through some outside research as well. We have a short discussion on the topics after each presentation. It's a very relaxed class but I feel you do learn more aspects of Korean culture and history through this class.
I am really loving the semester so far, I didn't think I wouldn't, but it's been a blast. I cannot believe a month or so has passed already =( Time just zooms by way too quickly.
