About

My area of expertise is analytic philosophy. I completed my BA, MA, and PhD in the Department of Philosophy at Jeonbuk National University, and I currently teach critical thinking, philosophy of language, and epistemology at Jeonbuk National University and Kunsan National University. This site brings together research, essays, and photographs shaped by the questions I keep returning to.
