Korea Reunited: A Family's Lifelong Dream

We are excited to invite you to a special interactive book talk with author Irene Hyun-Mee Kim, who will be sharing from her memoir Korea Reunited: A Family’s Lifelong Dream. Join us for a conversation that blends Irene’s writing process with her experience as a Korean American navigating cultural identity.

What defines who you are — and how much of that comes from the stories your family never told? Every family holds a legacy that spans time and borders. Few are as unforgettable as this.

In Korea Reunited, Irene shares a deeply personal journey through family history, cultural identity, and the invisible threads that connect generations. Raised between the traditions of Korean heritage and the realities of American life, she uncovers truths long buried — and in doing so, finds healing, resilience, and belonging. Along the way, readers explore the cost of silence, the tension of living between cultures, and the power of understanding your family’s past.

This event will be casual, interactive, and community-focused. Irene will also bring Korean treats to share. Don’t miss this inspiring evening!
