I (Minwook Kang) am an associate professor in the Department of Economics at Korea University. My research interest is in Macro-finance, Public Finance, and Economic Theory. My current research focuses on inflation-linked bonds in incomplete financial markets and endogenous sophistication in a consumption-savings model. I completed my Ph.D. in Economics at Cornell University. I earned my B.S. in Electrical Engineering at Seoul National University. Before joining Korea University, I was an assistant professor at Nanyang Technological University.
