Korea

Melina Serber

What happens when an oriental community from one side of the world, emigrates and settles in another part, in the western world? In time, I am getting to know the Korean community. I observe, film, interview and take photos of them, I purchase from their many businesses, visit their churches, eat at their restaurants. But I also encounter difficulties, a different culture, a language I cannot understand, fears that I cannot placate and sometimes disinterest. Because of this, and due to a link between my personal history and immigration, is that KOREA is born. The East in the West. The West in the East.
