Her full and utter shock that even a hospital in “a third-world nation” the place individuals stay in “squalor” may really be well-equipped and know what the hell they’re doing was famous.
Repeatedly.
Janice is condescending, demeaning, and customarily unbearable.
No quantity of smiling and sounding good whereas saying half the issues she says makes up for it.
Her inquiries about Biniyam’s first spouse had been a few particular agenda to discover a motive for her daughter to rethink her transfer and even her relationship.
Whenever you see how earnest and docile Bini is whereas beneath Janice’s scrutiny, it makes you sympathize with him all of the extra.
He talked about that his first spouse bought jealous over texts from a feminine buddy of his and left him.
It does sound like there’s much more to this story, however perhaps Janice would have heard extra about it if she used some finesse and seemed like she wished to learn about him as a substitute of grilling him.

Justice for Jihoon
All the things about Jihoon and Deavan comes right down to a failure to speak. Deavan noticed how troublesome it was navigating Korea with out Jihoon when she by accident ordered Elicia bugs for lunch.
Elicia dialed it again together with her fish out of water American factor, thank the heavens, however she clearly desires her daughter to return again to the States.
In the meantime, Deavan wished to speak with Jihoon’s mother and father to grasp what was happening with Jihoon placing cash in his mom’s account.
All of it went to hell from there.
Jihoon’s father is fairly cool, and as soon as Jihoon informed him every thing that occurred, he understood the place the problems had been. He acknowledged that Jihoon mendacity to Deavan and never speaking issues over together with her is a part of how they ended up on this mess.
He is extra inclined to carry Jihoon accountable than Jihoon’s mother, and he has all the time been a quiet man however a straight-shooter.
Deavan was proper that Jihoon’s mother and father should not have been apologizing on his behalf or taking accountability for his actions.
However am I the one one who will get bored with Deavan not proudly owning her personal decisions and choices? She blames Jinhoon for every thing that goes unsuitable in her life, and he or she was dramatic as hell saying he ruined her life as if she did not select to be with him.

However as soon as once more, there stays a irritating sample the place the Individuals take as a right that their spouses ought to be taught English, however they do not do any work to be taught the opposite language.
The language barrier does not simply fall on Jihoon and his mother and father. Deavan has by no means as soon as thought-about making an attempt to talk to them in Korean about any of this.
She does not take into account talking the language a lot in any respect, even whereas relocating to Korea.
