 Professor Choi’s new book, *The Life and Works of Korean Poet Kim Myŏng-sun: The Flower Dream of a Woman Born Too Soon* (Routledge, 2023) traces the life of a woman ahead of her time. Professor Choi describes Kim’s writings as early versions of #MeToo literature, as subversive challenges to traditional heteropatriarchal institutions and assumptions about gender and sexuality.

 [Jung Ja Choi](/people/jung-ja-choi) received her PhD from Harvard’s East Asian Languages and Culture Department and teaches courses in WGS and Asian and Asian American studies. Her course “Sexing Korea: Gender and Sexuality in Korean Pop Culture” was featured by *ELLE Magazine* as # 5 on their list of “63 College Classes That Give Us Hope for the Next Generation.”

 We congratulate Professor Choi on this publication!
