Women in Academia, Academia on Women
While diplomatic missions are beginning to take concrete steps against gender imbalance, the stark reality remains: international relations academia continues to be a field where male voices echo the loudest, and issues of Women, Peace and Security (WPS) often fade into footnotes.
Idolization of English pronunciation
Korean obsession with native-like English fluency needs to halt. Praised are the ones who imitate the smooth American intonation or posh British accent; those who fail to do so are viewed as terrible English speakers.
What I do
Sustainable development baffles experts and public alike.
I break down complex global issues through rigorous research and jargon-free writing.
After all, understanding world affairs shouldn't be a privilege!
I also write on the urban landscapes that shape me—Seoul and NYC—where global challenges meet local realities!
