Personal statement
I received my Ph.D. in Finance from Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) College of Business, in February 2017, and joined Strathclyde Business School in May 2018. My research interests lie in the areas of empirical asset pricing, market microstructure, international financial markets, and derivatives markets. My research is published in peer-reviewed journals such as Journal of Futures Markets, Pacific-Basin Finance Journal, Emerging Markets Finance and Trade, and Asia-Pacific Journal of Financial Studies. I also have acted as referee of the Journal of Futures Markets, The Financial Review, and Asia-Pacific Journal of Financial Studies.
