As I learned about politics, I also realized that there's no neutral position. I have little interest in running for politics. But almost everything I do (research&teaching&admin) is political as it shapes values, interests, relations, and forces in small and big ways.2/n

I seriously wonder how much US scholars know about the inequality of constraints faced by international scholars. Do you know the types of visas and the processes of taking and maintaining them? Do you know how long it takes to get H1B, permanent residency, etc?

Yesterday was my birthday, and I have thought about my life journey. Sometimes, we are disappointed with how little we have achieved in the short term. But if you look back at how far you've come, you are doing fine. Also, I'm grateful to have a life that's more than work.

When I came back to Korea, I wondered whether becoming part of the racial mainstream would make me happier. It didn't occur to me. The opposite of being a (marginalized) minority is not being mainstream but being fully human. 1/n

My coauthored paper with @Taeku_Lee on why S. Koreans are biased against North Korean refugees (i.e., invisible minorities, tldr: policy + class) got accepted at PRQ: This is a paper that I wrote for Gabe Lenz's political behavior class in my 2nd year.
