Building on a piece I wrote for the Los Angeles Review of Books Korea Blog, we talk about the development of Seoul as you can see it over sixty years of television commercials. These spots advertise things like Lucky household goods, the 63 Building (subject of our first Seoul urbanism segment), the Kia Pride, the 1988 Summer Olympics, the ill-fated Sampoong Department Store, and the Seoul Cityphone (the predecessor of the kind of cellphone service literally everyone in Seoul seems to have today). They also reveal a culture scrambling to change fast enough to keep up with the economy of a rapidly developing country — and an even more rapidly developing capital.

Seoul-based essayist, broadcaster, & Los Angeles Review of Books Korea Blog writer Colin Marshall joins Korea FM's Chance Dorland to discuss Lee Dong-jin’s Red Book Room (이동진의 빨간책방), a weekly podcast that since 2012 has been offering an hour and a half to over three hours of discussion of a particular, conversations with the authors themselves, readings of prose as well as poetry, and an opening monologue by the host followed by a short chat about the books he’s recently bought. Colin is a regular at the podcast's live tapings, which means he arrives at least a few hours early to get a seat for what often turns then be three more hours of listening.Rate & Review this podcast at http://bit.ly/KFMReviewSubscribe to this & other Korea FM original content via:iTunes - http://apple.co/1O91B39Overcast - http://bit.ly/KFMovercastRSS - http://bit.ly/KFMfeedStitcher - http://bit.ly/KFMstitcheraudioBoom - http://bit.ly/KFMaudioBoomPlayer FM - http://bit.ly/KFMplayerfmTunein - http://bit.ly/KFMtuneinAcast - http://bit.ly/KFMacast
