This edited collection presents the varied experiences of 1.5-generation Korean immigrants across global sites such as Los Angeles, Boston, Toronto, Auckland, Argentina, and Duluth.
By situating these cases in comparative perspective, the contributors illuminate the distinct position of this group, whose lives bridge countries of origin and settlement, generating layered social and cultural tensions.
The volume addresses a wide range of themes, including identity formation, occupational pathways, and the role of ethnic institutions and communities. It also extends to more intimate domains, such as changing attitudes toward love and marriage, the cultural demands of parenting, access to health services, and the development of ethnic and transnational entrepreneurship. Together, these discussions underscore the complexity of navigating overlapping cultural frameworks while maintaining a coherent sense of self, underscoring that the 1.5 generation occupies a position that resists conventional immigrant categories.
