So refreshing to have such honesty, intelligence, & strength from an Asian woman. Proud to be Korean-American.

Love that banana story. I have a banana story too. I believe most bananas in Korea were being imported from the Philippines, much richer than Korea at the time. So equivalent would be roughly $60+ for a single browning banana. Then you come to US back in days with 8lbs/$1 banana on sale.
