But at the End of the Day, I’m Always Gonna Be a Waegukin, Right? (ft. Ashley Groves)

WORD OF THE WEEK: Belonging

*'Waegukin' is the Korean word for 'foreigner'

In this week's episode, Allie is joined by Ashley Groves of the travel website Culture Snapshots to discuss the ever-changing social positions of foreigners in Korea. We speak on our own experiences of inclusiveness and marginalization, whether or not it's okay to be outspoken on the subway, and how to form a sense of belonging in a culture so different from your own.

This episode title is inspired by Ashley Grove's MSc thesis* from the London School of Economics and Political Science. Ashley received her MSc in Social and Cultural Psychology in 2020 from the Department of Psychological and Behavioral Science. She writes about worldwide travel at www.CultureSnapshots.com and on her Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok of the same name.
