It's Suah's first visit to Korea, where her grandma lives. She was so excited, but her broken Korean blocked the communication between her and Grandma. She thought that she and Grandma didn't have much in common. But as they spent time together, she discovered something different. Do you want to hear their story?


Grandma Lives in Korea captures the unique experiences of a young child visiting her grandmother in Korea, navigating the intriguing differences and unexpected similarities between their worlds.


Join Suah as she steps into a land where every sight, sound, and smell feels new and exciting. From savoring the delicious taste of Korean dumplings to marveling at the breathtaking night view from Namsan Tower, each moment is a blend of wonder, nervousness, delight, and discovery. Suah's journey is filled with charming anecdotes-like learning to write 'cherry blossom' in Korean and enjoying a cozy afternoon at a jjimjilbang with her grandmother.


Through these vivid experiences, Suah realizes that despite the language barriers and cultural differences, she and her grandmother share many beautiful similarities. This book is more than just a travel tale; it's a touching narrative highlighting the bond between generations and the joy of embracing new experiences.
