From September 3-5, 2018, Dr. Yin C. Chuang of NTNU visited Kyushu University to deliver a well-attended intensive course on ‘“Cuteness” and the reception of Japanese popular culture in Taiwan’. This was perhaps the last class ever to be delivered on Kyushu University’s old Hakozaki Campus - before all social science and humanities faculties moved to our new Ito Campus in September 2018.
