His principal fields of research are the international histories of Korea in modern times, as well as international relations. He was selected twice as a Fulbright Senior Scholar, which enabled him to conduct research at the National Archives and Records Administration, Washington DC (NARA and thus write this book. Among his recent publications is Politics of the Three Kingdoms’ Unification (Seoul: Kkachi, 2010), which received the award of “Excellent Academic Publication” by the Korean Association of Political Science for the year 2011.

‘As a carefully crafted work of diplomatic history, Ku’s book identifies and explains the key events that drove this tumultuous period in Korea’s past….But more broadly, Ku also provides us with a thoughtful examination of the nature of ‘international politics’ in a polity subject to the rule of another. In exploring the ‘Korean question’ within the wider ebb and flow and imperial visions and forces within and beyond the region, it sheds light on the entangled politics of competing empires and nationalisms in the making of modern East Asia.’ Robert Fletcher & Tehyun Ma, Series Editors Renaissance Books Imperialism in East Asia Series
