There is a lovely photography exhibition in New York on Korean gyopo, i.e. Koreans who live outside of Korea. The exhibition is a series of portraits of numerous Korean Americans accompanied by a narrative. Here is an example that features Daniel Dae Kim. The Korean also loved the picture and narrative of Chang-Rae Lee, author of Native Speaker.
The exhibit's website is here: Kyopo Project. Visit the exhibition, or donate online to support this exhibit turned into a book form.
Got a question or comment for the Korean? Email away at askakorean@hotmail.com.
