About the Speaker: SeungKwan Oh earned a Ph.D. in the Department of Korean
History at Seoul National University. The title of his doctoral
dissertation is “A Study on “Harassment leading to a loss of life(Wipibin
Chisa, 威逼人致死)” in Joseon Society in the 18th and 19th centuries”, which is
attempting to examine the legal meaning and practice of a type of suicide
in the Joseon Dynasty, dealing with cases in which an individual would
harass another with his or her power, as well as the state and social
responses to it. Oh is currently studying the difference between people's
perceptions of suicide in the Joseon Dynasty and their perceptions due to
gender and class. Oh teaches students as a middle school history teacher
and lectures as a lecturer in the Department of Korean History at Seoul
National University.
