Choi immigrated to the United States from Korea about 10 years ago. She is now 46 years old. Here she comments on the neighborhood in New York City where she initially settled:
I didn’t like the neighborhood itself, but it was convenient. It was just like Korea. There were Koreans everywhere and stores had everything written in Korean everywhere I go. It didn’t feel like I was in the U.S. Sometimes I got shocked to see a white guy passing by the street.”
