This one-day workshop brings together emerging scholars and established voices to reimagine the epistemic foundations of Korean Studies through feminist, queer, indigenous, decolonial, and transnational frameworks. Responding to the rise of right-wing authoritarianism, intensified anti-feminist backlash in South Korea, and the persistent marginalization of feminist discourse in Anglophone Korean Studies, the workshop creates space for collaborative dialogue and methodological innovation.

Co-sponsored by the Center for Feminist Researchthe East Asian Studies Centerthe Center for Transpacific Studies, and the USC Libraries Korean Heritage Library.
