My Name Is Yoon

Yoon and her family moved to the United States from Korea. She isn’t sure she wants to learn to write in English, as she loves the ‘dancing figures’ of Korean letters. Her name means ‘Shining Wisdom’ when written in Korean. She feels it will be different if written in English, even though her father assures her it will have the same meaning. Eventually Yoon learns that she is the same, no matter where she is, or how she writes her name.
