American with a Twist

Gyopo - a Korean, that grew up in another country, and comes back to Korea.  It does not matter what the circumstances are, or how long you have been abroad.  Once a Korean, always a Korean I suppose.

Not Korean:  I have been told I look Chinese, Vietnamese, Filipino and Korean.  Maybe it was my diet, maybe I am not fully Korean?  Personally, I think it was the RW&B injections I have received for the past 25 years.

A guy asked me which country I had more patriotism towards, America or Korea.  Tough question.  On the one hand I look Korean, but on the other hand everything about me is American.  Lets just say when I go to a restaurant my first choice is Prime Rib with a side of potatoes in any form.

I am to Koreans as San Francisco Hipsters are to me!  Ridiculous!

Still loving, learning, and observing.
