Produktbeschreibung
My project, Listen, is intended to communicate
stories of adopted Koreans, who were sent to Western
cultures, face many challenges in finding their
cultural identities. It was not their choice to leave
their native culture and birth families, and this
makes it especially difficult for them to figure out
who they are and how they can define themselves.
Since they are living as Westerners with Asian
appearance, their identity reside in the gap between
their physical appearances and the culture(s) in
which they live. Six adopted Koreans volunteered
their stories their experiences as adopted Koreans.
In reading their stories, I can reflect on some of my
experiences as a foreigner living and studying in a
Western culture. As I am a Korean and consider myself
a foreigner, it is a personal as well as a
professional interest to study the intersection of
culture and identity.
