American Cinema Evenings (ACE)

What is the American Cinema Evenings?
American Cinema Evenings hosted by the American Center of the U.S. Embassy in Seoul, provides young Koreans an opportunity to explore American culture, history and society through the medium of film. Each evening will feature a film showing and discussion in English led by an American embassy officer. Each month’s film showing will reflect a particular theme of American culture including American history, regional culture, literature, the natural environment, modern technology and lifestyles, contemporary performing arts, etc. We invite all interested young people to join us for these special evenings!
