October 2016 Kim-Renaud East Asian Humanities Lecture Series

Dr. Ravikesh Mishra heads the Centre for Korean Studies at Jawaharlal Nehru University. His area of interest and research include Korean language teaching, modern Korean literature, aesthetics, and literary translation. His talk will focus on the importance of promoting Korean Studies as one of the effective component of ‘Hallyu’ in the South Asian countries in general and India in particular. It also recapitulates the process of reception, adoption and assimilation of ‘Asian’ element that ‘Hallyu’ intrinsically possesses.
