Quick update: I’ve heard the following views on America from Koreans over the last few days:
- They think the country is falling apart due to the subprime mortgage crisis.
- They think the entire country is crime ridden, dangerous, and full of gun toting…minorities.
- When I asked a 6th grade by what he knew about New York, the only thing he could say was…”uhm….terror!” Granted, his English vocabulary was pretty limited, but I was rather dismayed that that was the only thing he could think of.
More updates coming soon, including more family reunion fun!
