K-Culture Talk: From Goblin to Spooky in Love — The Supernatural
Wed, Oct 14, 9:30 PMHave you ever wondered why there are so many **supernatural** stories in K-dramas and Korean movies? From the beloved ***Goblin*** and ***Hotel del Luna*** to ***Along with the Gods*, *Exhuma***, and the recent ***Spooky in Love***, Korean stories take us into a fascinating world of ghosts, spirits, the afterlife, shamanism, fortune-telling, and feng shui (pungsu). And the supernatural doesn't always have to be scary! It can be romantic, funny, touching, mysterious—or all of the above. Come join us for a relaxed conversation as we explore: * How is the supernatural perceived in Korean culture? * How do we make sense of these complicated supernatural stories? * Fortune-telling, feng shui & other traditional beliefs * How can supernatural stories be romantic, funny, or heartwarming? * What do these stories tell us about love, death, family & life? * And what makes *Spooky in Love* such a fun recent addition to the genre? We’ll draw examples from ***Goblin*, *Hotel del Luna*, *Along with the Gods*, *Exhuma*,** and the recent ***Spooky in Love*.** Haven’t watched all of them? No worries! Come with your favorite supernatural K-drama, your questions, or simply your curiosity! 🇰🇷 **Native Korean speakers are especially welcome to share your personal experiences, stories, and perspectives!** **🗣 Language:** The discussion will be conducted primarily in English, with Korean naturally mixed into the conversation. ✨ **The Vibe:** Easygoing and engaging. **👥 Who it’s for:** – . **K-drama/Korean movie fans and the supernatural-curious are all welcome!** – Korean/English speakers and learners. (Calling all Korean native speakers! Don’t be shy—come join us! **한국어 네이티브 분들, 다들 환영해요—부끄러워하지 마세요!**) – Anyone interested in Korean culture. 🔔 **Please Note** * Please register only if you're at least 70% sure you can make it. 😊 * If you can no longer attend, please **cancel your registration as early as possible** so someone on the waitlist has enough time to claim your spot. Thank you! 🔔**👥 How to find us?** Please enter through the **Capital One Cafe entrance on Broadway**. Walk straight ahead, and you’ll see **Community Room One on your left**. **Please do not walk toward the café area.**
