Daeun Lee is a PhD candidate in Comparative Asian Studies at the National University of Singapore. Her research interests lie within mobility and migration studies, specifically focusing on the mobility of young people in Asia and transnational solidarity in Asian youth activism. Her PhD research explores foreigners’ “visa run” practices in Korea, which involve exiting and re-entering the country to extend their stay. She aims to examine how these “visa run” practices blur the boundaries between ‘legal vs illegal’ and ‘tourist vs migrant.’ Additionally, she seeks to identify the mobility rhythms and lifestyles created by regular and frequent border-crossings.
