Daej and Minji quickly settled into their lives in America. They quickly learned English fluency, excelled academically at school, joined clubs and sports teams, made many friends – not forgetting to celebrate their Korean heritage with holiday celebrations, cooking food from Korea, listening to Korean music videos, watching Korean films!

How Daej Helped Save His Sister’s Life
