Laura McLuckie
15+ Years in Korea

Not a tourist.
A native voice.

I'm Scottish. I've lived and worked in South Korea for over 15 years. I broadcast in English and Korean. I've interviewed British Ambassadors, hosted fireside chats with internationally award-winning authors at Korea's most prestigious leadership conference, and appeared across KBS, MBC, tvN, JTBC, KNN, and beyond.

I've MCd G-Star — Korea's largest gaming expo — hosted the main stage at the Busan International Film Festival, moderated panels at the World Esports Summit, and spoken at the Asian Leadership Conference at the Shilla Hotel Seoul.

Beyond broadcasting, I work as a screen actor, filmmaker and content market professional. I played the co-lead in Can't Connect to This Network (이 네트워크에 연결되지 못해), selected for the Busan International Film Festival Village Film Project. I have produced, narrated and directed documentary and short film projects, and am an active member of the Busan Contents Market Organizing and External Relations Committees.

I'm also a PhD candidate researching cross-cultural media and digital cultivation theory — which means I don't just work in this space. I study it.

"Laura possesses confidence in abundance — and an encyclopedia of Korean society acumen."

— Broadcasting Colleague, Busan eFM

With 24 years across every major Korean broadcaster — KBS, MBC, tvN, JTBC, KNN and beyond — and a PhD in progress researching cross-cultural digital media, my work is grounded in both lived experience and academic rigour. I don't speculate about Korea. I live it, broadcast it, and study it.

"Cultivation Effects of Cross-Cultural Media in Algorithmically Curated Short-Form Environments" — examining how Korean content shapes global audience perceptions of Korean culture and society.

Seen and heard across the world.
