Folklife Collection - Folklore and Folklife Project: The Behaviors and Customs of a Korean-American Bar

by Salisbury University Students (1993)

1 folder (0.1 linear feet)

In a series of interviews of local Eastern Shore residents in 1993, Salisbury University students and teachers collected folk life material. For this assignment, Kyle McIntosh studied the folklore associated with a Korean-American bar located on Route 175 in Fort Meade, Maryland. The bar was regularly attended by soldiers. In addition to observing the cultural differences when hanging out and the esoteric-exoteric factors (what they think of each other), the student also interviewed an American patron to learn more about the unspoken resentment between the two groups, which was mainly caused by historical events and the "Yellow Fever" (lust after Asian women).
