	Language Purism in Korea
		North Koreans who were opposed to the full abandonment of Chinese characters (because of the resulting confusion in the vocabulary system) were dealt with by being publicly denounced as "the remains of the overthrown exploiting class, sectarian factors deeply influenced by flunkeyism, doctrinism, and reactionism"(93).

		At least one Korean scholar, Park Nahm-Sheik, has criticized the purists of his country as being "excessively nationalistic or even chauvinistic" in their claim that Korean is "the only language in the world that is truly pure and beautiful"(137).

	K-ToBI (Korean ToBI) Labelling Conventions
		Third, the AP initial tone in Seoul Korean is in general either L or H depending on the initial segment of an AP: H when the segment is aspirated or tense, but L otherwise.
		For example, unlike Seoul Korean, the tonal pattern of an AP in the Chonnam dialect (Southwestern dialect of Korean) is LHL or HHL (Jun 1989, 1993, 1996, 1998), with the alternation of the AP initial tone being caused by the same principles as in Seoul.
		Therefore, the ‘+’ sign in Korean ToBI refers to a syllable boundary and implies a grouping of tones; +H is part of the AP initial tone realized on the second syllable of an AP, and L+ is part of the AP final tone realized on the penult of an AP.

	Understanding Korean Literature, reviewed by Carolyn So

The bulk of the book is devoted to chapter 4, "Genres of Korean Literature," revealing the author's intent to give a basic introduction to Korean literature.
		What was once a potent and philosophic discussion on the issues of Koreanness and literature has been changed to an uncritical nationalistic position concerning the uniqueness of Korean literature.
