Recent Activities

The theme of my doctorate thesis is about the characteristics of the Japanese accent of a Japanese language learner. I have a huge interest in the voice and its characteristics necessary to naturally articulate a second language, as well as in the training for such. I also take an active role in the development of a web-based educational program for such field.
Not only this, but I also have a great interest in mechanically analyzing and processing language materials based on my experience of producing a Korean-Japanese parallel corpus in Korea University.
