Response to: Korean American Youth

This was a really interesting article to read. It's so fascinating how the internet has really opened up so many doors for new cultures and perspectives to be viewed from all over the world. For example, it's interesting how previous generations of Asian Americans tried very hard to push away their asian culture, but now new youth are embracing it due to the popularity of korean culture from the internet. Everything from music to dramas to gameshows have all taken hold in youth in both asian and non asian youth in america. This explosion of culture and knowledge is something that I look forward to seeing grow and develop in the future. I hope that something it will serve to do is reduce stereotypes about different groups of people so that we all understand how much we do have in common. My question is, "what was life like before the age of technology and the internet?". As someone who has had internet at a very young age, I wonder how society was fundamentally different.
