3. Short Explanation: We created a separate Wikipedia page solely dedicated to 'Korean Slang' in English. Slang in the Korean language is referred to as Eun-eo (은어) or Sinjo-eo (신조어, meaning a newly formed word). These slang words are usually used by the young generation of Korea in their day-to-day lives and are getting popular with the increase in the global popularity of South Korean culture driven by the spread of K-Dramas, K-Movies, and K-Pop.

After getting approval from SAYUL Korea for a special movie screening event, we had a discussion with Mr. Kim Jin Gap, Officiating Secretary of Korean Culture and Language Center, Kolkata, regarding the sponsorship of the event.
We held our first off-line meeting of this session to discuss and set up a detailed plan for the event after the finalization of the sponsorship.
We discussed about our idea of organizing a special congratulatory screening for the Academy award winning movie, 'Parasite' (기생충). We decided to invite Korean guests, Korean language students, other SAYUL teams along with their friends and family, and educational institutes.
All of us shared our ideas on the following points and shaped our scheme of actions accordingly-
Venue, date and time.
Booking of the movie theatre: Choices available- (i) Audi 1 with a normal screen (267 seats) (ii) P[XL] Audi 4 with a curved screen (377 seats) After going through all the pros and cons, we decided to take up the challenge to pull a huge no. of audience and chose the latter one for the screening.
