Jeongmeen Suh

 Welcome! I'm a Professor of Global Commerce at Soongsil University. I am currently on leave and serve as President of the Korea Security Agency of Trade and Industry (KOSTI). I previously served as head of the WTO team at KIEP and as an Assistant Secretary in the Office of the President of the Republic of Korea, where I was responsible for trade policy. 

 I study international economics, particularly trade policy and trade-related international agreements. My recent research focuses on (i) text-mining analysis of trade-related documents, (ii) trade and security, (iii) digital trade issues, and (iv) the history of Korean trade policy.

Here's Google Scholar. Feel free to reach out at jsuh at. ssu.ac.kr.
