For the June issue of Jubu Saenghwal--a monthly magazine here in Korea--we were one of the real life stories featured. The reporter and photographer came to our place at the end of April and, finally, we got to see the fruits of everyone's labor. To get these shots, it took hundreds of photos and several large butterfly nets to keep the kids in place (just kidding). The title goes something like "While falling in love with the sound of the haegeum, she fell for a Korean man;" or, something cheesy like that. The article is actually pretty good. It's just that this magazine, and newspapers, keep getting my graduate school wrong. They keep listing Middle Tennessee as the place where I got my Ph.D., instead of Indiana (big difference--especially considering the fact that MTSU doesn't even have an ethno program). Don't know what's blocking the brain about that one. I was pretty PO'd when I saw that, especially when I emphasized, more than once, that the newspapers were wrong and that the Ph.D. is from Indiana...well, gotta let that one go, I guess. Anyway, here's the spread. I'll post the photos next--turned out really wonderfully. We're planning on blowing a couple of them up poster size and hanging them on our wall.
