Summary Statement of Research Interests
My research interests lie in tracing the image of the queer woman and her body and the ways she has been constructed, reconstructed, and/or erased in contemporary South Korea film. I am specifically focusing on how underground and subterranean spatial and architectural constructions interact with these queer presences. I am also interested in pursuing co-productions between South Korea, North Korea, and Japan, especially focusing on queer relationalities and spatial affect.
Research Keywords
