Hello! 안녕하세요!
Hello, I’m Sol, a PhD researcher at Goldsmiths, University of London. With my mixed Korean and English heritage, I bring a distinctive perspective to my research on North and South Korean reunification. In addition to my academic work, I am a university lecturer, serve as secretary of PUAC, and act as executive director of Ezemiah Movement. Fluent in both Korean and English, I am passionate about fostering cross-cultural understanding and bridging diverse communities.
안녕하세요, 저는 런던 골드스미스 대학교에서 박사 과정을 밟고 있는 조솔 입니다. 한국과 영국 혼혈이라는 배경을 바탕으로 남북한 통일에 대한 연구에서 독창적인 시각을 제시하고 있습니다. 현재 박사 연구 외에도 대학에서 강의를 맡고 있으며, PUAC 간사와 에즈마이야 자선단체의 상임 이사로 활동하고 있습니다. 한국어와 영어에 모두 능통하여, 문화 간 이해를 증진하고 다양한 공동체를 연결하는 데에 깊은 관심을 가지고 있습니다.
