Hesung Chun Koh (Hangul: 전혜성; Hanja: 高全惠星; born 1929) is the Co-founder, Chair, and President Emerita of the East Rock Institute (ERI), and the Director Emerita of Research at the Human Relations Area Files (HRAF) at Yale University. Over the course of her career, spanning seven decades, Hesung has worked to promote cross-cultural understanding between Korea and America through her interdisciplinary and comparative research, cultural information system development, teaching, community and ecumenical services, and leadership. She is the author of many books, articles, and multimedia on topics related to diaspora identity, Korean cultural values, and authentic leadership.

Education

After graduating from Kyonggi Girl’s High School in 1946, Hesung's academic career began at Ewha Women's University where she majored in English and Korean Literature. Despite scoring highly on the national entrance exam and being accepted into Seoul Women’s Medical School, Hesung decided to pursue her dream of studying abroad. In 1948 she left Korea and went to the US as exchange student at Dickinson College on a full scholarship where she double majored in Sociology and Economics. From there, she went on to earn a MA and Ph.D in Sociology and Anthropology from Boston University, where she had the privilege of being trained in Interdisciplinary studies for three years. Later, from 1960-61 Hesung pursued postdoctoral work in Chinese Studies at Harvard University and Georgetown.

In 2000, Hesung was awarded an honorary Doctor of Law degree by Cheongju University.

Teaching Experience

Over the span of her career, Hesung, has taught a variety of courses such as: Korean society and culture, East Asian law and society, women, gender roles, Korean and Japanese language, sociology, deviant behavior, and planned change. In addition, she has taught at a number of academic institutions including Yale University, Yale Law School, Boston University, Albertus Magnus College, the US Army War College, and Central Connecticut State College, Japanese National Museum of Ethnology , Osaka (1979, 1996-1997) and the International Center for Japanese Studies, Kyoto, 1998-1999.

Library and Translation Experience

In addition to her teaching experience, Hesung has worked in academic libraries as an East Asian language specialist. As an undergraduate student during the summer of 1950 she worked in the Orientalia Division of the Library of Congress and at the US Army Map Service, where she translated the first U.S. 1:50,000 scale map of South Korea, which required knowledge of Korean, Japanese, and federal romanization standards, into English. This task was completed a week before General McArthur's landing at Inchon. And, from 1953-55, Hesung, while conducting research as a graduate student, was a cataloguer of Korean and Japanese books at the Harvard Yenching library and the Harvard Peabody Museum Anthropology library.

Honors

Hesung has been the recipient of a number of awards including the Order of Civil Merit (the Republic of Korea’s highest award to a civilian), the Connecticut Governor’s Award, Prime Minister’s Award in South Korea ,and the Korean Broadcasting Society Overseas Korean Compatriot Prize in South Korea. In 2016 she was the recipient of the Outstanding American by Choice award.

In 2016 Hesung was awarded the 37th Kim ManDeok Award That same year, Hesung was also awarded with a Life Time Achievement Award from the Council on Korean Americans.

In 2018 the Koh family: Hesung Koh, her late husband, Dr. Kwang Lim Koh (postumously)and her two sons, Howard Kyongju Koh, MD, and Harold Hongju Koh, J.D. and Prof. Jean Kyungun Koh Peters were inducted to the Immigrant Heritage Hall of Fame.

Cultural Information System (KOCIS)

This system was formerly initiated by Dr. Hesung Chun Koh at the Human Relations Areas Files (HRAF) at Yale University in 1966 [1] as the Korean Social Science Bibliography Computerization Project with a three-year grant from the National Science Foundation. It was a pilot model to digitize HRAF’s cross-cultural dataset of 300 cultures of the world in manual files. It was undertaken at the request of then HRAF President Professor Clelland S. Ford and its Board of Directors.

HRAF is the world’s first consortium of its kind of ethnographic data of over 300 world cultures. Unlike libraries that handle books, HRAF provides sentence by sentence indexing of ethnographic data. It was established in 1949 after the end of WWII with a number of universities cooperating with Yale University. The name Human Relations Area Files was chosen to meet the need of two different types of users: for the worldwide comparative research seeking commonality of human behavior, then called Human Relations, and also for those researching in-depth specific cultural areas, called Area Studies.

Hesung Koh, with her own interest in Korean culture in the East Asian context, found HRAF’s overall approach very valuable, but began to voice her opinion about how the system can be improved for the comparison of East Asian cultures and the incorporation of insider’s perspectives of culture.

Why begin with the bibliography?

Because of the exponential growth of written data compared to the limited human ability to handle data in one setting, the critical selection of the trustworthy sources of data before indexing is essential. In other words, data quality control, through controlling the systematic bias and selecting trustworthy data source through bibliographic research became the first and most important step.

To control the increasingly large volume of complex information, the use of newly emerging computers became necessary.

In order to inventory reference data by computer, Koh began by adapting the joint cataloging method of Mr. Fred Kilgour, Jr.[2] (known as the CHY project: Columbia, Harvard, and Yale catalog computerization project) using the IBM 1401 complex computer then operational at Yale Computer Center[2]. But she soon found that Korean bibliographic computerization required differentiation of information by language and types of materials beyond books and articles including audio-visual data that were not at the time well-documented in library cataloging. Also due to the long historical depth of Korean cultural data and Korea’s numerous interaction with Mongolia, China, Russia, and Japan, the ethnographic data-focused HRAF classification system including many less developed countries needed to be modified, not to mention the inclusions of Chinese, Japanese and Korean, and another non-western language handling. That was the time when the computer was used for numerical data such as census taking. There was no way to differentiate the upper case from the lower case, nor linguistic symbols, not to mention no non-roman character control.

Dr. Koh developed a multi-dimensional indexing approach using time and space, sub-cultural differences to ensure the comparability of retrieved data, which is called culture unit definition, and systematic bias control in order to affirm the trustworthiness of data, which is called the data quality control method.

While Kilgour’s team provided assistance with the computerization of descriptive cataloging, some of Koh’s analytical categories were incorporated into the Yale Bibliographic System. This was also the time the Library of Congress’ MARC project with Paul Reimer was working with Fred Kilgour, Jr.[2] Hesung Koh was subsequently invited to join the consultation team to the MARC project and the Yale Bibliographic System development. With computerization, she was able to add new initiatives to meet the requirements of the East Asian culture, with its longer historical time depth and complex nature, while also accommodating the newer terms in the classification systems.

In addition, Hesung Koh noted that in relation to East Asian cultural studies, the following areas required changes:

1. To add a Japanese culture file. While there were files on China and Korea, there were no such Japan files.

2. Topical analysis was not suitable for handling complex non-western cultures with historical time depth or for account for subcultural differences. For example, OCM categories such as social class and economy were not sufficient to handle complex Korean, Chinese, or Japanese culture.

3. Three-digit topical codes called OCM, the Outline of Cultural Materials, comprise nearly 100 topical subject headings and is superior to any other library or museum classification system. However, it was too numerous for one person to readily remember and apply without constantly referring to the book of classification.

4. OWC, the Outline of World Culture, needed additional codes for time period classification of insider’s viewpoints e.g. dynastic name and time period

5. For broader categories and newer concepts, topics such as identity, conflict, Korean studies, East Asian studies, women’s studies were added.

6. By assigning key terms specific to each culture, it is now possible to know the special characteristics of a given culture, such as hangul, the Korean alphabet, or Mot, a Korean term for the aesthetics of visual art, and heung, the essence of music.

7. Hypotheses tested or theory was needed to help differentiate from descriptive data

8. A bibliographic subsystem in which the references were also separate from the descriptive data

9. Adding audiovisual components to the system

10. Adding Author profile and research method as Data Quality Control variables.[3]

Fortunately, with computerization we can preserve the original structure of HRAF while adding new indexing categories which made them multi-dimensional and flexible.

This is where Hesung Koh’s interdisciplinary orientation to human-social science, and her earlier fondness of math and science, and her library working experience at some of the major American libraries were all brought to bear for her KOCIS development. She was working especially from her own frustration of using American libraries to conduct research on Korean history and culture, which had different types of bias when compared the native Korean authors, Japanese colonial officers, or North American missionaries.

How is Korea a good sample for the worldwide cultural system development?

Korea is smaller than China, but has a history almost twice as long as Japan. Korea was invaded by the foreign powers over 800 times and yet it developed its own language, art, and cultural values that have survived over 4,000 years. The Korean peninsula played a bridge role between continental Asia and the Japanese islands.

The KOCIS system was further developed in cooperation with major scholarly and cultural organizations in the United States, Korea, and Japan from 1970 to date.

In the early 1970s, the Association for Asian Studies (AAS), the largest among 12 area and international studies associations, invited Dr. Koh as their Director of Information Systems to computerize their annual Bibliography of Asian Studies "BAS". Koh directed a three-year project supported again by the National Science Foundation at AAS, which gave her the opportunity to test the KOCIS method against additional Asian cultural bibliographies.

In 1975, the newly established National Museum of Ethnology of Osaka, Japan was in need of an integrated control system of multimedia material that would also be compatible with their inventories of artifacts and books. Dr. Koh was invited to deliver lectures on the development of their information system to the entire museum staff and faculty for three weeks. Subsequently, she was invited for three months as a visiting professor in 1979.

In the fall of 1979, NME launched its pilot project JACIS, Japanese Cultural Information System, selecting Okayama prefecture data. Since the premodern Japanese period was divided and governed by Shogun, with samurai, military Okayama was studied by an American interdisciplinary team of scholars.

While she was in Japan, Dr. Hesung Koh and her husband Dr. Kwang Lim Koh were both invited to attend the first International Conference of Korean Studies at the Academy of Korean Studies in Seoul[4]. Dr. Hesung Koh was the keynote speaker to introduce the KOCIS framework and novel computerization of social and human science Korean studies data at the concluding plenary session.

Dr. Rhi Ki Young, AKS’s Director of Development who organized the conference, also compiled and edited the Academy’s first International Directory of Scholars of Korean Studies to hold this first international conference. And Dr. Rhi asked Dr. Koh to help digitize the book. This was also the time NME wanted to use only roman letters in their museum information system. However, Hesung Koh strongly suggested that the use of the original language was crucial for the integrity and sustainability of the East Asian cultural information system.

NME was not only concerned with its cost, but also how to identify the initial sample to begin the codification of Chinese characters.

This is when she introduced Kilgour’s Ohio College library system model and suggested to seek funding to serve all Japanese government-supported educational and cultural organizations with their computerization. She pointed out that AKS’s international Directory of Researchers on Korea will provide good sample data to initiate non-roman character control. Also, she emphasized that NME should develop a Korean Studies program when she was asked the price of her service.

This was the time Dr. Hesung Koh already actively worked with the AAS organizing committee to computerize non-roman character control as an automated information committee, and also advocated for a non-roman character control proposal at UNESCO World Information System as a member of the US delegation in the midst of receiving considerable resistance from European delegates.

In the 1970s Chinese librarians of major US universities were collaborating with Taipei or Peking only for the Chinese character code development but Hesung Koh organized a special committee at AAS to codify all non-roman character control in an integrated way with common basic principles to enable eventual global information exchanges. How to select a manageable initial sample of Chinese characters to develop codes among a vast number was a major challenge.

From 1996-1999, while on sabbatical, Dr. Koh was visiting professor at NME in Osaka and at the International Research center for Japanese Studies in Kyoto. She again collaborated with NME on the East Asian Law and Culture Project to digitize 18th-century criminal cases from China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam all in Chinese characters. She continued to partner with Dr. Sugita Shigeharu, the Japanese physicist.

Another four-year grant came from the Japanese Ministry of Education, and ten international scholars from China, Korea, and Japan were with Dr. Koh from the U.S. as research director (1996-1999).

This project produced an extension of the legal analysis system, unique KOCIS subsystems of criminal law, as well as additional Chinese character codes for the IBM Japan computer programming and for NME. By that time Dr. Koh was delighted to benefit from her earlier contribution to the NME information system development by obtaining a comprehensive bibliography of Korean culture at the NME library! Many Chinese characters not in dictionaries were also now available in computer processing due to the computerization of 18th-century criminal law data.

Teaching and Research websites with KOCIS Development at ERI

In 1999 using a Korea Foundation grant ERI developed a teaching and research website on traditional Korean culture called INSTROK (Information System for Teaching and Research on Korea) that added to the KOCIS development.

Then, in cooperation with the International Research Center for Japanese Studies in Kyoto, Dr. Koh co-sponsored a conference with Prof. Suzuki Sadami, comparative Japanese literature professor, and presented studies on the Korean diaspora as KOCIS-KD, another adaption of KOCIS for use on studies of identity within the Korean Diaspora. This system was presented at The Korean Diaspora and Strategies for Global Networks conference in Kyoto, Japan, 2005.

Now, through Dr. Koh's unique cultural information system, all this archival and legacy data on Korea, Korean diaspora culture, and related topics can be shared with the world. It is waiting to be updated with the newest IT technologies and programs so that Korean and Korean diaspora data at ERI can bring dynamic contributions to post-COVID-19 era communication and cooperation.

The Academy of Korean Studies’ directory of scholars of Korean studies worldwide dataset required initial coding of over 80,000 Chinese characters, in addition to the integration of Chinese, Japanese and Korean scripts together with roman letters. Hesung Koh and Dr. Sugita Shigeharu went to KIST (Korean Institute of Science and Technology) to subcontract with their Korean economic bibliography computerization project headed by Mr. Yoo, Kyung Hee. NME funded a three-year project of HRAF, Yale, AKS, and Sr. Sugita Shigeharu and Hesung Koh subcontracted to Mr. Yoo Kyung Hee for the technical processing of this international joint project.

[5] The IBM 5550, the first desktop computer with Chinese, Japanese, and Korean scripts was issued in 1984. It used 80,000 Chinese character code developed from NME, HRAF, and AKS international joint project. Consequently, Dr. Koh, its project director received one of the first IBM 5550 desktop computers as a gift from IBM Korea, which she donated to the East Rock Institute.

Korean-American Community Service

After moving to the Boston area in the 1950's, Hesung and her husband, became active in developing a community with other Korean graduate students, visiting scholars, professionals and immigrant families. They were involved in the establishment of the first Korean Church in the Boston area, and the Greater Boston Korean Association. In 1956 they furthered their interest in fostering cross-cultural communication by founding the Korea Institute, Inc. Through this non-profit organization they were able to create scholarship funds, hold lectures on cultural topics, and establish the Korean studies program at Harvard University with the help of professor Edwin O. Reischauer. The Korea institute later moved to New Haven, CT and became what is now known as the East Rock Institute. The name, the Korea Institute, was then used by Harvard University's Korean studies professor, Edward Wagner, in consultation with and supported by Dr. Koh.

Korean Women, Confucian Values, and Leadership

Over the course of her career and life, as a researcher, teacher, leader, and mother of six children, Hesung has promoted and embodied a positive blending of traditional Confucian values with western feminist ideology. In her research she challenges the traditional interpretation of women's roles in Confucian society by demonstrating the contributions made by women throughout history, including the preservation of Buddhism, aid in national defense, development of new printing and food technology, and the promotion of justice among human beings during the Confucian dominated era of the Chosun Dynasty. Her thesis is to show the actual power women had rather than the formal authority that men enjoyed. Rather than being antithetical, females had considerable power during the Confucian dominated periods of Korea's history before its opening to the West.

Personal Life

Hesung and Kwang Lim Koh were married in 1952 and are the parents of six distinguished children: Dr. Carolyn Kyongshin Koh Choo (Dean of Natural Science, ChungAng University, retired), Dr. Howard Kyongju Koh, Dr. Edward Tongju Koh (PhD., retired), Professor Harold Hongju Koh, Professor Jean Kyongun Koh Peters (Sol Goldman Clinical Professor of Law, retired), and Dean Richard Jongju Koh. She is also the grandmother of six children and great-grandmother of nine children.
