Workshop: North Korea as Transnational Space

January 31, 10:00am - 4:00pm
Mānoa Campus, The Center for Korean Studies

North Korea is at once a transnational entity shaped by historical and global forces that traverse ideological and national boundaries. This workshop aims to explore the transnationality of North Korea through the particularities of architecture, development, memory, and emotionality. As the international community deals with further engaging with North Korea, it is crucial to understand that North Korea has always been part of the modern world.

C. Harrison Kim (UH Manoa), Eunsung Cho (Columbia University), Hunmi Lee (Sogang University, Seoul), and Sung Kyung Kim (University of North Korean Studies, Seoul).

Discussants
Young-a Park (UH Manoa) and David Krolikoski (UH Manoa)
