Here’s an option for passing the time while one grapples with the dilemma of whether to opt for in-person entertainment or not.
The Centro Cultural de Korea, Madrid, has lined up 11 Korean films within the 13th Korean Film Festival — online, as a result of the pandemic.


This opting for the cultural offering from East Asia may bring to mind the titillating “South Korean model” which became the global standard for the pandemic response. One may recall that the interest of the foreign governments and media in that “model” peaked in March and April. However, after this high-water mark, the focus of interest shifted and encompassed lessons from a wide range of other countries.

Still, South Korea (officially the Republic of Korea) is a country to reckon with when it comes to the Coronavirus pandemic.
