Korean Kirogi Families is a multi-sited ethnographic fieldwork that explores the dynamics of emplaced transnational families through analyses of social capital, sense of place, sense of belonging, and mothering among Korean kirogi families. The book examines kirogi families in a historical and transnational context, focusing on mothers and children who live in McLean and Centreville of Fairfax School District in Virginia, just a few miles from Washington, DC. Young A. Jung argues that these educational transnational families construct distinct types of sense of belonging, including structural belonging, relational belonging, school district belonging, and narrative belonging. In the global migration era, when transnational migration continuously reshapes our communities, Korean Kirogi Families reveals how recent education migrants are changing the suburban landscape of America.
