Movie legend Kim Ji-mee has donated US$20,000 to a planned Korean War memorial near Los Angeles. The memorial is scheduled for completion in September at Hillcrest Park in Fullerton, California.
Kim, who at 81 is old enough to remember the 1950-53 war, gave the donation to the Korean consul to Los Angeles on March 26.
Kim said, I feel both happy and rewarded to take part in this historical and patriotic project to honor the warriors who sacrificed their lives to protect our freedom and democracy during the Korean War and make Korea what it is today.
She was 11 years old when the war broke out. My parents owned a mill during the war and they gave rice to U.S. prisoners of war who were being taken away, she recalled. I still can t forget the look of gratitude on their faces as they ate.

The Chunhyangjeon is one of Korea s most iconic stories. Although its author and date of composition are unknown, it most likely originated as a work of pansori (probably from Chunhyangga ,the most famous pansori), a form of musical storytelling involving song and percussion, and was later adapted into prose during the reign of either King Sukjong (r. 1674–1720) or King Yeongjo (r. 1724–1776). Considering the importance of the source material, it is not surprise that it has been adapted more than a dozen times (16 probably) on cinema, with this, 1961 version by
Shin Sang-ok s own adaptation of the same story, which was screened at the same time.
