Eva Son-Forget

Eva Son-Forget (née Kim Jae Duk; Korean: 김재덕; born 15 April 1983), formerly known as Joachim Son-Forget, is a South Korean-born French politician who lives in Switzerland. She also holds Kosovar (since 2018) and Swiss citizenships (since 2020).

Adopted by a French family as a child, Son-Forget holds a doctorate in neuroscience and has experience working as a radiologist in Switzerland. She was previously active within the Socialist Party (PS), then liberal party La République En Marche! (LREM) until she resigned from the party in late 2018. She then founded her own political party Valeur Absolue, and between 2021 and 2022 was active alongside far-right party Reconquête. Son-Forget has variously labeled herself a liberal, a right-winger, a supporter of the European Union and of French President Emmanuel Macron.

Since her election as a member of the National Assembly in 2017, Son-Forget has made multiple appearances in interviews and talk shows and is an active user of social media. On the Internet, her publishing of satirical content and memes drew attention from the press; her use of social media has been described as "trolling" by various media outlets, and has been the subject of controversy within French politics.
