Seoul Searching

Rebecca Wilson

"In 1981, a 31-year-old single Christian woman moves to Seoul, South Korea, to teach first grade in a foreign school. While teaching overseas has long been on her "life list," her adjustment to a new culture and language is overwhelming, but exciting and rewarding. Develop a love for Korea along with her. Her adventures include getting a master's degree in a foreign country, and in the sequel Re-Searching Seoul, writing English textbooks for Korean middle schools, and enjoying the 1988 Seoul Olympics. She is also intent on pursuing another "life list" goal-to become a mother, but finds it illegal. Does she have the fortitude necessary to take on the Korean government in a long, impossible, exhausting battle to build a family? Journey with her in both books (Seoul Searching and Re-Searching Seoul) through monthly newsletters and private diary entries as she not only adjusts to the culture around her but fights the Korean government to achieve her heart's desire-motherhood."--Back cover.
