@jamiewithorne When I was working on border studies a decade ago, I went to conferences abroad and raised eyebrows when I told them the topic. Surprisingly the only time someone grilled me about it was when I was driving into Canada!

Really looking forward to reading this article. When in grad school in Seoul in the early 10s, I found few classmates (publicly) identify as feminists—even in gender studies courses. @G1Leeee @gjung1006 Minyoung Moon @Gend_Soc provide evidence of changing gender politics in Korea

"Drawing on interviews with 40 female college students in South Korea, we found that most of the participants self-identify as feminists who engage in feminist activities primarily in private offline settings on their college campuses."

Important data and analysis on the future of Korean partisanship from Yeilim Cheong and @StephanHaggard . Korean domestic politics is seeing a real social shift--the question is how it will affect policy

Voters in South Korea may be less divided on policy than they are on political identities, Yeilim Cheong and @StephanHaggard find in their research. And as we have seen in the US, that is not necessarily a good thing. #PeninsulaBlog

How will NK respond to the Biden administration? Carefully and confidently, I write (under a provocative headline)

Biden Has Inherited a Nuclear North Korea

With Joe Biden now poised to become president on January 20, how will North Korea respond to the change in leadership in the United States?

Korea's per capita GDP grew from $100 to over $30,000 in 60 years. Investment in an industrial workforce was a major driver of this development. Given this model, our latest #KoreaInFive asks how inequality might affect the country's future.

@jeongminnkim @bkavoussi Excellent article that highlights the rationality behind conspicuous consumption. I really appreciate the different tone to US millennials: #treatyoself is an optimistic aspiration/entitlement, but #시발비용 is a bit like resignation or a reactionary challenge to inequality
