Dear Colleagues, Please join me in welcoming , who has provided the following self-introduction: I am King Kwong Wong (kingkwon@ualberta.ca<mailto:kingkwon@ualberta.ca>), a Master student of the department of History and Classics at the University of Alberta. In general, my interest lies with the interaction between the East Asian civilizations in the premodern period. Thus this leads me to the research project of the marriage alliance between the Yuan and Koryo dynasties in the 13th and 14th centuries, with particular focus on the Mongol princesses in the Koryo court. Yours truly, Michael
