Persona 4
A Day in a Life Narrative:
I retired after owning a business with my wife for over 25 years. My wife and I are first-generation Korean Americans. We moved to Texas in the early 1980s. Since our degrees from Korea were not accepted, we worked very hard to save money and own a business in Koreatown Dallas. We raised our two children to excel in their studies, so they do not have to work hard like us. At the same time, my family and I were connected to the Korean community by being members of a local Korean church. After more than 25 years of owning a business, my wife and I were persuaded by our children that it was time to enjoy life and not worry about work every day. During my retirement, I learned to use the internet off and on. I do not like to use the internet every day; I still like to read the printed newspaper, especially the Dallas Korean newspapers. I use social media to connect with my children and grandchildren. The site will introduce my children and grandchildren to learn about the Korean American history and culture in Dallas. I would like to include my stories and pictures about Koreatown Dallas.
End Goals:
I enjoy being around my family. I use social media to stay connected with my children and grandchildren. I like to teach my grandchildren about Korean culture and history because I don’t want them to forget about their Korean heritage.
