Studies on Asia is a peer-reviewed interdisciplinary journal sponsored by the Midwest Conference on Asian Affairs (MCAA), a regional conference under the Association for Asian Studies-the world's largest non-profit scholarly organization in the field with approximately 8,000 members worldwide. The journal, with over a half century-long history, is published twice a year (Fall and Spring) by Eastern Illinois University. Studies on Asia welcomes manuscripts on any and all aspects of Asia across time and place, including current and historical issues, pedagogy, and literature. Submissions of original English-language translations on and from Asia are welcome as well.


Please enjoy and remember to submit your own work or reviews on Korea in this widely read journal in the near future. The next issue will be published in the fall. Hope to see more pieces on Korea in the journal in the near future.


Sincerely,

Jinhee
