I will present my research on performances that hold cultural history and memory—specifically, the experiences of the Sewol Ferry disaster victims and the memories of the families—at the “Politics of Memory, Memory of Politics: The Case of Korea” panel of the “Trans-Asian Mnemoscapes: Rethinking the Politics of Memory in Asia and Beyond” conference organized by the Critical Global Studies Institute (CGSI), Sogang University, Korea. The conference will take place from June 20 to 23, 2023 at Sogang University, Seoul, Korea.
