Fifth Cultural Post: Identify a topic for your culture project and your learning goals for your topic.
The topic for my culture project is family and kinship in Korea.
My learning goals for this topic is understanding relationship and terms between immediate and extended family, and to understand the roles in a family and comparison to American culture.
With family and kinship, I want to be able to know the terms to call everybody in the immediate and extended family. I started researching a bit into some extended family terms, and it is very complex, and there seems to be a different term for everybody (like there is a term for your second uncle’s wife).
I also want to research the importance of family in Korean culture and the role each individual plays.
