2-01: Actually, I remember several times people asked if I was Chinese, and I just said yes (laughing). Looking back on it, it was pretty stupid, but it made sense at the time, you know, don’t have to explain the difference. Umm… and then, for a while, I identified myself very strongly as Korean. So, it was very disappointing that I don’t look very Korean, because I wanted to. But, now I think more as Indian, actually, which fits with how I look, and also fits with how, I dunno, I guess just what we eat most of the time, and… all of that. Most of my relatives are Indian – I have more Indian relatives than Korean ones, so… it fits.
