Anglophone Expatriate Mothers Raising Biracial Children in Korea

“Given the rapid pace of social and demographic change in South Korea due to its rising engagement with the world, this book is extremely timely and tackles an issue that has long been overlooked. It provides a voice for women who may be existing on the margins and offers an insightful framework for pastoral counseling and care to support immigrant women and families from a range of backgrounds, including in contexts beyond Korea.”


—Sarah A. Son, Lecturer in Korean Studies, University of Sheffield





“Multiculturalism and biracial marriages have been a noted trend in many parts of the world over the past few decades, but a more recent phenomenon in South Korea. Kim’s research provides a fascinating insight into biracial marriages in South Korea and possesses a rare trifecta of academic rigor, accessibility, and warmth. It makes for compelling reading at both societal and academic levels.”
