Short Film
A short film is any motion picture that is short enough in running time not to be considered a feature film. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences defines a short film as "an original motion picture that has a running time of 40 minutes or less, including all credits". In the United States, short films were generally termed short subjects from the 1920s into the 1970s when confined to two 35 mm reels or less, and featurettes for a film of three or four reels. "Short" was an abbreviation for either term. The increasingly rare industry term "short subject" carries more of an assumption that the film is shown as part of a presentation along with a feature film. Short films are often screened at local, national, or international film festivals and made by independent filmmakers with either a low budget or no budget at all. They are usually funded by film grants, nonprofit organizations, sponsor, or personal funds. Short films are generally used for industry experience and ...

Jajangmyeon
''Jajangmyeon'' () or ''jjajangmyeon'' () is a Korean noodle dish topped with a thick sauce made of '' chunjang'', diced pork, and vegetables. Variants of the dish use seafood, or other meats. History ''Jajangmyeon'' was introduced in the late nineteenth century, when workers from the Shandong province of China were sent by the Chinese military to Korea. It was offered in 1905 at ''Gonghwachun'' (), a Chinese restaurant in Incheon Chinatown run by an immigrant from the Shandong region. The restaurant is now the Jajangmyeon Museum. Both the name and dish originate from the Chinese '' zhájiàngmiàn'' (). The common features of both are pork, long wheat noodles, and a sauce made from fermented soybean paste. However, ''jajangmyeon'' uses both starch flurry and caramel coloring, resulting in a thicker and darker sauce when compared to ''zhájiàngmiàn''. Yong Chen, an associate history professor at the University of California, Irvine, has said that although the dish "began as ...
