Robyn Shultz is a 25 year-old Korean American adoptee from St. Louis Park, Minnesota. She was adopted at three months old and did not return to Korea until the age of 24 to spend a year teaching English. In this interview we discuss her experiences living and working in Korea, including her experience meeting her biological mother and half-brother. Above, she is pictured with her biological mother at a hoi (raw fish) restaurant in Busan, conquering her life-long aversion to all things seafood.
Also, for more adventures from Robyn, a.k.a. Park Joo-Young’s, life, check out her photoblog, “Globe Trotters.” It chronicles her travels from Morocco (just before coming to Korea), to her time and travels here.
Bear in mind: this is the first episode, we’re still experimenting … and figuring out how to work all the software. :)
