— Contents and key concepts

A room, and two speakers

The notes take up Yi Kang-baek’s one-act play Dried Pollack Head. Two figures share a room: Ja-ang and Gi-im, as the notes spell the names. What they say to each other keeps circling, and a dried pollack head keeps returning to the talk.

A head that will not stay still

The object is not only a prop on a table. In the notes’ telling it keeps coming back into the speech, as if it would not stay still, and the two speakers have to keep answering it, or answering each other around it.

Ad

The notes keep the spellings Ja-ang and Gi-im as they stand in the Korean text, and they do not reach for later shop names.

Where the notes stop

The notes leave the play there, before a later shop listing. The same Korean report, at fuller length, is on CampusDown.
