Korean culture was never something that I had to study or explain to anyone when I lived back in Seoul. That all changed when I stepped foot in the United States as a study abroad student. I went through multiple identity crises, questioning things like: \"Who am I?\", \"Where am I from?\", \"What's the difference between the United States and South Korea?\" I was also swamped with questions from my classmates regarding Korea - its pop culture, food, tradition, relationship dynamics, and so on. I soon concluded that I needed to have a strong understanding of my own background to be able to figure out my identity as well as explain my culture to others. After intense and thorough research, I wrote this book to answer some of the most commonly asked questions that I received from my American friends. I hope you understand that this book is a mix of personal experiences and objective research. I also hope that you can grow further interest in Korea through this trip that I have prepared for us!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bookbaby","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45125725323415,"sku":"9781667870366","price":687.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781667870366.webp?v=1767902421","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/all-you-need-to-know-about-the-korean-culture-9781667870366","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
