Where/When did you migrate?

• They moved to New Jersey U.S. My aunt moved after her marriage and my uncle moved when he was 17.

Why did you migrate?

• They moved because of family.

How did you adapt to the new environment?

• My uncle's first six months in the U.S. were difficult, but there was a large Asian population, so he made many friends. My aunt adapted to the environment by making online friends. Also, my uncle introduced many friends to my aunt.

If it wasn't your reason to migrate, would you still migrate to that country?

• They both didn't regret it, but my uncle wondered what his life would be if he stayed in Korea.

Do you think that it was a good choice, or do you think that there were better choices?

• They think that the U.S. had many advantages, but they had language barriers and their parents had a tougher time adjusting to the new environment.
