위험한 장마의 비/ La pluie dangereuse/ Dangerous rain
Mini-doc on the phenomenon of super-jangma; that is, extreme monsoon weather in Korea. Jangma flooding is always somewhat dangerous, and every year there is flooding severe enough to cause injuries and death.
But several years ago, Korea experienced a "keun-bi ", in which over 600 ml. of rain fell in 24 hours (annually Korea receives on average approximately 800 ml.). The result was catastrophic, and the black and white photos in this video are from a magazine article I wrote about some of the damage in our district.
At that time, mudslides destroyed apartments. The municipal government has is continuing to upgrade flood breaks and storm sewers--just as well since climate change seems to be a factor in this weather trend.

Une question troublante -- mais pas souvent adressé -- est pourquoi l'administration Truman n'as pas donné le Corée de sud une garantie de sécurité dans les premières mois de 1950. Comme tout le monde sait maintenant, la but diplomatique des États Unis était de protéger le Corée de Sud dans une espèce de périmètre de défense. Mais cet but était secret. Pourquoi ?
A troubling question -- but seldom addressed -- didn't give South Korea a security guarantee in the first months of 1950. As everyone now knows, a diplomatic goal of the US was to protect South Korea in a form of security perimeter. But this goal was kept secret. Why?
