I am a PhD student in Language and Linguistics and my research investigates discursive constructions of gender in Korean pop music and their implications for gender identity negotiation among Korean language learners. I also work as a Graduate Research Fellow and teach in the Korean programmes.
Prior to my doctoral studies at York St John, I worked as a secondary school teacher in South Korea and received an MLitt in Comparative Literature from the University of Glasgow.
