Korean Studies Distinguished Lecture Series 2021 to 2022

About the distinguished lecture series

Each year, the Scottish Centre for Korean Studies welcomes a fantastic range of guest speakers to give a free public lecture.

Previous lecture topics have included Korean literature, poetry, and cinema, North Korean development, East Asian international relations, Korean history and society, and queer Korea.

Often, speakers will present on recent publications, and audiences have the opportunity to participate in question and answer sessions after presentations.

This year, our Distinguished Lecture Series is being arranged in collaboration with our Korean Studies PhD reading group, “Korea and Its Neighbours”.

Some of the lectures are recorded and uploaded to the Scottish Centre for Korean Studies’ YouTube channel and Facebook page.

How to join

Lectures are free and everyone is welcome. 

In the interests of audience and speaker wellbeing during Covid-19, and in line with our sustainability objectives, they will be held online using Zoom.

Registration is required so that you can be sent joining instructions and links in advance.
