I had been contemplating on how I was going to go about my research. Who was I going to interview? As I thought about who would be the best to interview, the first person that came to mind was my mom and my aunt. My mother who was born and raised in Korea, moved to the states about 20 years ago, so who better than my own mom to ask about this very topic? How different was gender roles in Korea than America, and how did the difference impact her life?
As with my aunt, she was born in Korea as well, but she moved to the states when she was a teenager, so in her perspective, it must of had a totally different impact, seeing as how she grew up in the states, but originated from the Korean culture from a young age.
Through my research i would love to gain more knowledge of my Korean culture and how different it is than it is here in the US. I feel and hope that with these interviews of my mom and aunt, I can become more understanding and gain more appreciation for different cultural views of gender specifically and basically everything about cultures.
