Own Words

I was adopted from Korea when I was 3 months old. I love being Korean American. I went to Korea in April and had a great time. I met my halmoni and nam dong seng (little brother). I really liked Lotte World. I am learning Korean language. I like this web site because I like seeing other Korean Americans. My favorite foods are mandu and pizza. I like Korean folk tales. I am a 2nd Degree Black Belt in TaeKwonDo. And I am good at math and I am musical (which is funny because everyone says I am suppose to be since I’m Asian- duh). I am short. I thought that when I was in Korea I might not look quite so short, but my even my halmoni called me short.

When I grow up I think I might like to be a chef. I might like to live in Korea for a while too.

My picture is on the subway in Seoul.
