ABSTRACT
This chapter examines diasporic young Koreans’ media practices. Drawing on interviews with young Koreans who are permanent residents of Canada, the chapter illustrates how young migrants’ use of digital media is influenced by their memories and literacies of the earlier media used in their homeland and by their desire to be connected with diasporic ethnic networks. The chapter shows that, while the young Korean migrants were able to omnivorously access and appropriate different new media forms, the ethnically oriented boundaries in their digital media use did not seem to be diluted.
