(UPDATE: You can read a very good summary of the lecture at Such is Life)
ORIGINAL POST: As reported by Oranckay, Andrei Lankov will be giving a lecture on North Korea at the Foreign Correspondent’s Club near Seoul city hall (map).
I went to one of Lankov’s lectures last winter and really enjoyed it. Alas, I’m working late tonight and can’t make the trip to Seoul for this one.
If any readers do go, I would love to hear a summary in the comments section. Or you can email me and I’m update this post with your summary.
