Jinhee Choi’s Forever Girls: Necro-Cinematics and South Korean Girlhood wins Best Monograph at the 2026 British Association of Film, Television and Screen Studies Awards

Jinhee Choi’s Forever Girls: Necro-Cinematics and South Korean Girlhood wins Best Monograph at the 2026 British Association of Film, Television and Screen Studies Awards
21 May, 2026

Published with Oxford University Press, Forever Girls is the first English-language monograph to focus on girlhood and South Korean cinema.

The British Association of Film, Television and Screen Studies awards panel noted that “Choi explores girlhood in South Korean cinema with supreme skill in argumentation and great clarity of writing. Not only does it challenge male-centred scholarship on East Asian cinema, its critiques of the use of girlhood and of girls and young women offers lessons for all readers. It is hugely readable, vitally important, wonderfully constructed and lastingly relevant.”
