Summary:
Seventy-six year-old Young-Ja Wike is one of 10,000 Korean women who married American G.I.'s after the Korean War. For these women marriage was the only escape from the crushing poverty of post-war Korea. Now "Grandma" lives in south New Jersey with her husband. Never having learned to speak English fluently, she is isolated from the community and her family as well.
