ABSTRACT  

Culture permeates many aspects of our lives, even in ways that we may not be conscious of. This article examines the way culture produces tensions for second-generation Korean Americans due to contrasting value systems in American and Korean cultures. More specifically, it explores the tenacity of Korean culture as it influences the everyday experiences of second-generation Korean Americans as they navigate their lives in American society.
