Korean Folk Songs: Bright glaring disappointment
http://koreanfolksongs.blogspot.com/2009/01/bright-glaring-disappointment.html
Tuesday, January 13, 2009. This review is forthcoming in the Korea Herald. It is one of the sadder tales in modern publishing history. It goes like this: a man, James Frey. Writes a book that is autobiographical in nature about addiction, about finding a way to make it through a dark spell. He tries to sell it as a novel, shopping it around to publishers and they all pass on it. He tries to evoke a sense of place (. And make that place the canvass for his contrivances. It’s nothing if not ambit...For an ...

Korean Folk Songs: Clean-up on aisle 2008!!!
http://koreanfolksongs.blogspot.com/2009/01/clean-up-on-aisle-2008.html
Saturday, January 03, 2009. Clean-up on aisle 2008! Here's a year-end story. Matt Lamers and I wrote for the Herald. Few would dispute that the top story of the last year was the extent to which the foreign community pulled together. Whether it involved raising millions of won for charities, forming social clubs, joining the Taean oil-spill cleanup, feeding the homeless, or teaching English to underprivileged children, foreigners joined their Korean communities in different ways and in record numbers.

Korean Folk Songs: What happened to Conor Oberst?
http://koreanfolksongs.blogspot.com/2008/12/what-happened-to-conor-oberst.html
Sunday, December 28, 2008. What happened to Conor Oberst? I've been reading a lot of year-end music lists this week and almost none (actually, none). Of them include the Bright Eyes frontman's record. Was it really that bad? I admit, I'm biased - Bright Eyes has too much to do with my "formative years" to be objective - but I liked it. Especially "Lenders in the Temple." I'd put that song in a top 50 of 2008 list. Probably even toward the top. UPDATE: This useless magazine. Posted by Bart Schaneman.

Korean Folk Songs: April 2009
http://koreanfolksongs.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 03, 2009. This blog has moved! Because I have grown tired of Blogger's. Interface, its look, and the trouble I have with posting and editing photos, I moved my blog. To Word Press. Korean Folk Songs was always only loosely based around Korea, anyway, so I decided to title the new one simply Bart Schaneman. The new blog is going to be for original writing, photography and links to: journalism and stories I publish, the short stories I write on Rain Follows The Plow. Posted by Bart Schaneman.
