🎙 Episode 8: 📖🇰🇷

In this episode, I am joined by Jerome de Wit, professor of Korean and East Asian Studies at the University of Vienna, for a deep dive into Korean history. We explore Korea’s colonial past, Japan’s selective approach to teaching pre-1945 history, and how these gaps shape national identity today. We talk about why younger generations of Koreans are trying to move beyond old narratives, why anti-Japan sentiment is more complex than it seems, and how Korea itself still reinforces certain parts of the story. If you’ve ever wondered how history is remembered, reshaped, or conveniently forgotten, this episode will stay with you. Tune in for a conversation that’s part history lesson, part identity check!
