And that’s a wrap for AAS2025! I had so much fun (re)connecting with so many people. Special thanks to those who showed up at my poster presentation, took pictures and asked questions 🥰

When I started my Ph. D., every time I’d buy a K-pop album or something K-pop related, I’d keep some of the inclusions for “when I have my office.” The time has come. 🤓

Finished my first semester as a professor the best way 😂 [not included: students singing along while I play the 노래방 version from TJ]

I knew it was going to be Enhypen first but I’m surprised at RIIZE in second haha ☺️

Told you 😌

Had so much fun in Yale ☺️ It was so nice to catch up with friends, meet new others and to be intellectually energized by all the wonderful presentations. Thank you so much, Prof. Grace Kao, Dr. Wonseok Lee and all the staff of CEAS, for your work!

So excited to fly to New Haven tomorrow! Finally visiting my first Ivy League 🥹
