It was nice to see a profile of Henny Savenije, his wife An Young-jin and their children in the Korea Times today. I know of him through his contributions to the Korea Studies Discussion List and his website on the history of foreign interaction with Korea (with a focus on Hamel), which is full of old maps and photos, and which was very useful when I wrote this post. An also talks about the challenges multicultural families face in Korea.
Very nice guy. I've met him at places like Korean Studies seminars at Korea University and what not.
