The Korea Society will be holding a special lecture titled “Love’s Labor Found: Lee Man-Hee” to introduce cinephiles to the prolific Korean director Lee Man-Hee and his work on August 29 at 6:30 PM at the Korea Society. The lecture will be delivered by Sue-young Park-Primiano, a doctoral candidate at New York University.
