DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nIn this talk\, I explore the notion of ‘heritage
  language’ within the South Korean context from two distinct angles. Fir
 st\, I delve into research on Jejuan (also known as 제주어 Jejueo or 
 제주방언\, the Cheju/Ceycwu dialect of Korean)\, where we see the conf
 luence of distinct scholarly trends\, from South Korean national linguisti
 cs\, via the study and documentation of Jejuan as an endangered language\,
  to intersecting views within the heritage linguistics framework. Next\, I
  take a first step at looking at my own German-Korean heritage speaker bac
 kground. The linguistics of the German-speaking Korean diaspora interacts 
 with complex layers of migration into German-speaking countries\, yet is s
 everely understudied. Studying both contexts will reveal the challenges th
 at not only Korean communities across the world face today\, but also high
 light some pertinent issues that heritage linguistics has to take into acc
 ount.\n\n\nSpeaker bio\n\nSoung-U Kim is Ricercatore RTDB for Korean langu
 age and literature at the Department of Asia\, Africa and the Mediterranea
 n at Università di Napoli L’Orientale. As a German-Korean linguist with
  a Ph.D. in Linguistics (SOAS University of London)\, he has an extensive 
 track record with respect to minority language research and documentation\
 , language teaching\, Koreanic languages and cultures. His research areas 
 are language documentation and description\, Koreanic languages (specially
  Jejuan)\, egophoricity\, politeness\, multilingualism\, language ideology
 \, language and power\, and fieldwork and reflexivity. \n\n\nLink to the t
