Further papers in this issue consider the celebration of cultural authenticity at Korean food-focused events in the UK, Korean culture in pedagogical practices designed to reduce stigma, South Korean neo-liberal politics as seen through the lens of Thomas Piketty, contested histories in South Korean museums, and fieldwork encounters between Japanese and Korean researchers in the Inner Mongolia of the late 1930s/early 1940s.

Jo's Homing: An Affective Topography of Ethnic Korean Return Migration.
