Description

In our first ever roundtable edition of the podcast, Dr. Van Jackson was joined by Korea watchers Dr. John Delury (Yonsei University), Minseon Ku (Ohio State University), and Karl Friedhoff (Chicago Council on Global Affairs) to discuss the closest presidential election in South Korean history, in which conservative Yoon Seok-youl won by a razor-thin margin.  The crew talks about the popular politics of anti-feminism in South Korea, the geopolitics of a conservative victory, and the myths that Beltway Korea watchers had built up about outgoing President Moon Jae-in.Articles mentioned during the episode: https://imnews.imbc.com/replay/2022/nwdesk/article/6348703_35744.htmlhttp://www.keaf.org/book/EAF_Policy_Debate_Making_Sense_of_the_Gender_Debate_in_South_Korea?ckattempt=1https://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/south-korea/2022-02-08/south-korea-needs-stepContributors: Gaby Magnuson, Alex Auty
