Sue Mi Terry (born c. 1972) is a Korean-American scholar of international relations who previously held the position of senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and served as a CIA intelligence analyst specializing in East Asia. On July 16, 2024, Terry was arrested on charges of acting as an unregistered agent for the National Intelligence Service of South Korea. Allegedly, Terry used her roles at think tanks to secretly advance South Korean interests, including disclosing nonpublic U.S. government information and influencing policy. In return, she reportedly received luxury goods, expensive meals, and funding for her public policy program. The indictment has been criticized by leading civil liberties groups as a threat to the First Amendment.
