    Ep 35. Part Two - Searching for North Korea in South Korea

    Hoping to reconnect with a sense of home, I traveled to South Korea—only to experience an unexpected culture shock. Everything felt unfamiliar, and I struggled to find any trace of the similarity I thought I would find. In this episode, I reflect on the complicated emotions of searching for belonging in a place that felt both close and foreign at the same time. Hosted on Acast.
