Season 2, Episode 5: Robin Anderson

Robin Anderson, 45, is a Korean-American adoptee who has been living in Korea for the past three years. He talks about his decision to return and of his path to landing a teaching position at arguably the most prestigious university there, Seoul National University. Anderson is also frank about discussions he’s had with his parents about his decision to make Seoul home, for more or less the rest of his life. He also talks about what he’d like his students and Koreans, in general, to know about adoptees; and what he’s learned about trying to become more Korean since he’s made Korea home again.
