Episode description

Diego and Eun Hee are ethnic Koreans raised in Mexico with an American education.

For culture-hoppers like these, it's clear that one name does not fit all. So how to fit in? Should we?

Sneak peek of this episode:

  • How "Susan" became "Eun Hee" - a name that is unfortuantely mispronounced daily
  • Why Diego's parents named his brother twice
  • Korean naming techniques and why you won't find the textbook on it
  • A future ruled by BTS - how do we feel about Korean names used by non-Koreans?
