South Korea: Korean studies congress · Global Voices
John Kennedy

A call for papers has been sounded, blogs Hunjangûi Karûch’im‘s Antti Leppänen, for the third world congress of Korean studies set for October this year.
“There doesn't seem to be any DPRK involvement this time,” he writes, “which I must tell is fortunate, considering the experiences from the 2nd ‘world’ congress of Korean Studies which took place in Pyongyang in 2004,” in which South Korean scholars were refused entry.
