Such views are often spread through radical study groups that have sprung up on every South Korean campus. Dabbling in authors ranging from Lenin to Psychoanalyst Erich Fromm, the groups recruit promising freshmen who know little about politics or political theory and soon acquire a taste for sweeping generalities. "Basically our program stresses freedom, independence and democracy," one member says. Some groups run summer camps that bring youths to the mountains for intensive study. Others encourage students to quit school and take up jobs in factories, where they try to organize workers. While police seek to break up the groups...
...mathematics is sometimes so well hidden as to be nearly invisible. But at its best Square One finds clever and disarming ways of bringing dry subjects to life.

When Cornish refuses to give his friend the money to buy a Cornish fake, we only glimpse briefly at the turmoil Cornish feels...
THIS PARADOX stems from a strong point of the production: the acting. In one case at least, it may be just too good. The farcical psychoanalyst--Mrs. Wallace and, to a point, Dr. Stuart Framingham--are played to the hilt by Ruth Bolotin and Adam Barr. Daniel Hurewitz is hilarious as Bob, who sulks, shuts his ears to reason and sings Frere Jacques.

The candidate for both those spots is Bruce, played...
