Hello

edit

Hi! I'm Korean American, I grew up in South Korea and now live in the U.S. I speak English, Korean, Chinese (conversational), and Japanese (basic, enough for simple conversations). I used to edit under a previous account (contribs, pages created) that I retired per WP:RTV, but I decided to come back.

Interests

edit
  • Modern Korean history (19th and 20th centuries)
  • Korean diaspora
  • Religious studies
    • Abrahamic faiths
      • Early Islamic history, Islamic sects and related religions, inter-sect relations
      • Modern Judaism, Samaritans, Beta Israel, and relations between these groups
      • Early Christianity, Christian syncretism, and sects
    • South Asian religions
      • Sikhism, modern Hindu-Sikh-Jain-Buddhist relations, practice of these religions outside of South Asia (e.g. in Guyana)
  • Geopolitics
    • Modern Middle Eastern history
  • Travel
    • I've been to 20 countries, my favorites are India, Egypt, Mexico, Türkiye, Japan, and China.

My work

edit

I try to edit quickly and boldly, as coverage of Korea on Wikipedia needs significant improvement and the Korean-speaking community on enwiki is quite small. I try to prioritize topics that I think others are unlikely to work on and that are important or useful for non-Koreans, the Korean diaspora, and historians.
