Course Description
Mental illness remains one of the most elusive and neglected topics in Korean history. As in most Asian countries, severe social ostracism, shame, and fear of jeopardizing marriage prospects induce families to conceal the mentally ill behind closed doors. In the most recent survey completed in 2014, South Korea still has the highest suicide rate of 29.1 per 100,000 people among member nations of the OECD, eclipsing Hungary and Japan. Sociologists and psychiatrists have attributed this sudden spate of suicides as a by-product of South Korea's breakneck industrialization, which has created enormous expectations and pressures to succeed in this hyper-competitive society, but at the same time “left an especially large crack that the poor and disabled populations slip through even more often. Despite the alarming suicide statistics, the South Korean government has yet to fund significant studies to “identify key stressors and supports in the individual's social environment.” The use of literature for healing purposes has a long history. The term bibliotherapy was first coined in 1916 and became popularized in the 1960s in the United States as a therapeutic program designed to facilitate the recovery of patients suffering from mental illness or emotional disturbances. This course seeks to find ways to use webtoons as a corrective therapy for those undergoing emotional and behavioral disorders. Drawing on a wide range of texts incorporating psychotherapy, counselling psychology, and literary studies, students select effective texts for bibliotherapeutic work, analyze target groups, conduct evaluations, and specify the therapeutic aims.

UCEAP Quarter Units

Course Description

This course investigates how and the extent to which economic actions and outcomes are socially shaped, if not determined. It first covers a series of theoretical materials that argue for the so-called structural or relational “embeddedness” perspective and then moves on to discuss a wide variety of empirical examples, especially those related to network analysis. The course pays close attention to some of the key underlying assumptions regarding individual decision-making processes. More specifically, the focus is on the ways in which social networks (broadly defined) surrounding human actors affect the ways in which they think and behave and how this process ultimately creates and reinforces economic inequality.
