EXHIBIT:The Deep Time of Korean Literature

UW Global Month The Deep Time of Korean Literature, Korean literature has evolved over five thousand years, shaped by nature, history, and everyday life.

These layered histories form a living tradition that continues to grow and speak to the present. * OPENING DAY: May 14th (Thursday) 4pm - 5:30pm (RSVP here)  Enjoy live music performances, light refreshments, and a gift bag—including K-pop merchandise—for all registered attendees.
