Shakespeare in the Park (Korean Style)
Part of the experiential learning acitivity was for students to prepare a piece of Korean literature translated in English to read aloud. Several of the students read poems by famous Korean poets and pieces of prose. Other read songs and told jokes. Some of the students in the P group read poems by famous Western writers, such as "The School Boy" (Blake); "If I Can" (Dickinson); and "One Thousand Winds" (Fry). Because I know that performance is such a large part of Korean society, I also participated by reading chapter two from the Song of Solomon. This fit in quite well with the other pieces the P group chose, since it focuses on love, which was a common theme many students chose.
