Thoroughly enjoyed taking KOR 113 with Professor Hwang! There are weekly readings and a short quiz at the beginning of each lecture on the readings. The quizzes are straightforward and not trying to trick you. Her papers are also straightforward and enjoyable to write. She's a great lecturer, a passionate prof, and wants you to do well!

I took Professor Hwang KOR 153 class and it was such a nice class to take at the end of your school day! It's not easy because it's simple, it's easy because she's super engaging and makes the topics entertaining to learn. Even as someone who's not a reader, I enjoyed the reading she assigned and the conversations in class abt it :) would do again!

professor hwang is amazing! i took KOR 153 with her and she made lectures engaging and interesting. we had weekly reading responses, 2 weekly discussion questions, a midterm, and a final project. one of my favorite classes that i've ever taken at UCSB!

I took Asia 132 (didn't have this class as an option on RMP) with professor Hwang, and I HIGHLY recommend taking any class with her. The lectures are engaging and she makes it an active class. she's humorous, attentive and overall a great teacher.

I really enjoyed this class! The lectures and readings are interesting and insightful. She is really understanding and helpful. I definitely recommend this class. The course was made up of weekly readings, weekly short reading quizzes, a multiple choice midterm, and a paper final.

I loved this class so much! really unique opportunity to learn more about Korean literature/history, and Professor Hwang is a fantastic lecturer. about 60 pages of reading per week, reading quizzes and one page write-ups, in class midterm, and a final paper. i really enjoyed the material and looked forward to going to class each week!
