I am an associate professor in the Global Affairs Program at George Mason University (Fairfax, VA). I also serve as a director for the Asia-Pacific and Northeast Asian Studies ('Asia-Pac') minor and an associate director for the Korean Studies Center. I love coffee and probably drink too much of it everyday.

Here's my CV .






Things I am interested in studying and teaching include:

  • political economy (financial market; income inequality)
  • democratization & democratic backsliding
  • political communication
  • politics in Asia
  • quantitative methods
  • positivist approaches to fandom study (K-pop)
