Abstract

This paper scrutinizes the differences in the conceptualization of love between Korean and American women.Grounded in an analysis of literary figures, Brett and Kim Ji-young, the study unravels the intricate interplay of cultural, historical, and societal forces shaping these perspectives. The contrasting landscapes of the United States, driven by ideals of freedom and individualism, and Korea, entrenched in Confucian values and collectivism, serve as crucibles for forming women’s roles, self-perception, and societal expectations. The examination extends to communication styles, illuminating the directness of American expression versus Korea’s reliance on formalism. Through this exploration, the paper illustrates the profound impact of cultural contexts on the intricate tapestry of love, offering a nuanced understanding of divergent viewpoints within a global context.
