Public Record

This page collects selected public identifiers, accepted conference work, and public proof-of-work.

It is not a complete academic CV. It is a compact public record for readers who want to verify the current status of my work.


Snapshot — July 2026

Independent researcher based in South Korea. All listed conference works are sole-authored unless otherwise noted.

In my first academic submission season beginning in January 2026, my work has been accepted across multiple international venues in STS, platform governance, internet research, labour studies, digital governance, industrial relations, political science, media accountability, and critical theory.

The work is primarily theoretical, diagnostic, and framework-oriented: it develops conceptual tools for identifying recurring structural patterns across AI governance, platform systems, labour pressure, digitally mediated political judgment, institutional responsibility, and repair.

Current active or converted accepted-work stack includes 4S, AoIR, EASST, ILERA Asia, IPSA Regional Conference in Wrocław 2026, and MCCT.

Additional accepted-but-not-converted records include EGOV-CeDEM-ePart 2026 / IFIP EGOV 2026, BSA Work, Employment & Society Conference 2026, and HCII 2026 / AI-HCI 2026. These items were accepted but could not be converted because registration, proceedings, camera-ready, funding, travel, accommodation, or in-person participation constraints prevented participation or formal record conversion.

At MCCT 2026, one presentation was completed; a second presentation was accepted and programme-listed, but remote delivery was disrupted because of IT issues; the organizer later circulated the presentation and accompanying note to the stream.
