At the end of the 19th century, John Korea, a young man from Joseon, headed to Australia. The book traces the lives of early Korean immigrants, including Ho Yeol Kim, who studied at the University of Melbourne. Professor Ji Yeong Song, who worked at the Lowy Institute and researched at the Australian National University, interviewed immigrants from the first generation to working holiday youth. The book covers about 100 years of Korean migration to Australia in six chapters, exploring the reasons for leaving Korea, such as poverty, war, dictatorship, and educational opportunities, and how they settled in Australia.
