The voices of second-generation Korean Americans echo throughout
the pages of this book, which is a sensitive exploration of their
struggles with minority, marginality, cultural ambiguity, and
negative perceptions. Born in the United States, they are still
viewed as foreigners because of their Korean appearance. Raised in
American society, they are still tied to the cultural expectations
of their Korean immigrant parents. While straddling two cultures,
these individuals search for understanding and attempt to rewrite
their identity in a new way. Through autobiographical
reconstruction and identity transformation, they form a unique
identity of their own-a Korean American identity. This book follows
a group of second-generation Korean American Christians in the
English-speaking ministry of a large suburban Korean church. It
examines their conflicts with the conservative Korean-speaking
ministry ruling the church and their quest to achieve independence
and ultimately become a multicultural church.
