About the Speaker:
Misato Tanaka is a Lecturer in the Department of Regional Development Studies, Faculty of Global and Regional Studies, Toyo University. She has been a Junior Fellow at Kyujanggak, Seoul National University, and an Assistant Professor at the Research Institute for Oriental Cultures, Gakushuin University. She holds degrees from Kyushu University (BA, MA, PhD).
Her research interests focus on the adoption in modern Korea from a legal and socio-historical perspective.
