Family dynamics are evolving as a result of globalization and shift in care for elders as well as children-rearing by East Asian families should be at the forefront of research. This pilot study of Korean families living in Thailand uses qualitative ethnographic research method. Data collection techniques combine snowball sampling of 5 informants, in-depth interviews and participant observations. Data collection took place in Bangkok and Chiang Mai, Thailand. This study analyzes the definition of filial piety, definition of dutiful child/son/daughter, practices by Koreans living in Thailand, and aspects of the Korean community in Thailand. Results of this comparative content analysis show differing definitions of filial piety and dutiful child/son/daughter, adapted practices, varying emphasis on celebration of traditional holidays, and surprising aspects of the Korean community living in Thailand. 2013-07-16 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1373322439 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1373322439 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
