  • Summary

  • Eun Hee is a Korean who grew up in Mexico City and moved to New York by way of Boston.

    Trilingual without a tribe, she's found peace in the grey area between the cultures of her motherland (S. Korea) and adopted homeland (USA). Let's find out how she got there.

    Sneak peek of this episode:

    • How Korean-Mexicans and Korean-Argentineans co-exist in Mexico City
    • Fitting in (or not) with her adult alter-egos - the 'Koreans from Korea' and the 'Korean-Americans'
    • How racism feels different in the US vs Mexico
    • Pronouncing, abbreviating, and struggling to get her name right in the American workplace
