director park chan—wook studied philosophy. he was a film critic. he knows cinema history, and he's long been impressed by british director alfred hitchcock. it is said that hitchcock's psychological thriller vertigo influenced decision to leave. i watched vertigo when i was in college, and that inspired me so much that i decided to become a film—maker one day. so, i don't think i will ever be out of the influence of hitchcock, and decision to leave is one particular film that shows much influence from him. as i mentioned, a clip from park chan—wook�*s celebrated 2003 film oldboy was on display at the hallyu! the korean wave exhibition. it's of a violent fight in a corridor, seen as an impressively choreographed sequence in a movie which tells of a man kidnapped for 15 years who, upon release, attempts to track down his captor. the picture brought south korean cinema a lot of very positive international acclaim. i do agree with you that it was oldboy that put korean cinema on the map but, you know, there are other korean films before oldboy, o

supervisor chan. >> um-yeah, i think that it is a very challenging decision. i'm looking at purely-i always really just want to thank of course our d1 appointee, savitha moorthy for her service across. i think it is a great opportunity for someone like a educator like isabela hill and bringing the perspective educator to the body. it is a tough decision, but it is definitely great to have someone who is bilingual and understanding having cultural and language competency to one of the largest community in need of early childhood services in the city and typically just from my experience with children council, that is a great need in a city like ours when child care cost is extremely high for immigrant and community that are mono lingual. we have some decision before us. i am probably in a space where leaning toward an educator like isabela hill for this reason because the lack of educators perspective while seeing that ms. moorthy has been involved in many other bodies related to child care already. that is probably where i'm leaning towards. >> i should note t
