The taste memory of kim chi drove him to eat spicy food, when he was untethered to his roots, it led to health problems (see vol. ![]() And that 5 year old child who was "abandoned" and all of the other Korean international adoptees are part of his roots, that he indeed has an identity and a "home". And he begins to understand the beauty of the scarring of his psyche - it's a link to his origins. He realizes that he may not have learned to draw or become a graphic novelist if he hadn't needed to grapple with his identity. But he could've equally concluded that he's lucky because he has connections to two worlds.Īnd he does get there, in a way. Sadly, Jung's initial conclusion is that he isn't at home anywhere. In a more general way I'd say the former is more youthful, childish and the latter is more mature, reasoned. While the second now seems more French, more realistic, like accepting as a means of moving on and forward, building and growing. It's interesting because the first view now seems to me very stereotypically American - I mean, very "power of positive thinking", accepting as a form of denying reality, brushing off the parts of the story that are troublesome. His conversation with the two film crew members gives a kind of yin/yang perspective- one who tells Jung, yes you are Korean because you were born here, your roots are here and the other who says no, that without the same language, value, culture, you can never be Korean. Interesting choice and a kind of proof that he still doesn't fit in Korea. He has to use English to interact with Koreans as he never learned the language. In the original, French version, why do the dancers speak to him in English instead of Korean? Is it because the reader presumably can at least understand "Welcome back home" whereas they wouldn't be able to read Korean characters. ![]() Jung illustrates the movement from anger/rejection to acceptance as a long process with steps forward and back, sometimes in equal measure, weaving in story elements like the roots, masks as identity and Jung drawing Korean drummers/dancers without knowing (see vol. I wonder if Mohamed had success as a bédéiste? Is he walking through the fields or is he being born?) & 25 - are the roots welcoming him or are they going to grab him? Mohamed shows Jung that these tangled roots are not a merely a handicap, but can be used playfully and enjoyed. That being said, there are some really moving drawings, like pages 23 (very minimalist but meaningful. It made me sad, frustrated, even a little angry that his plan to travel to Korea with his wife and daughter was thwarted by the filming! While the "self-observer effect" nourished his writing in the first volumes - as in, he was examining his past, which led him to change and grow as a person - it seems that by this volume, Jung was distracted by the filming of his story and the attention that the series had received. I think that the popularity of this series ended up watering this one down. There's a lot of ground to cover in this volume - his young adulthood, his trip to Korea, and an attempt to connect his experience with other adoptees. ![]()
