{"product_id":"9780573697470","title":"American Hwangap","description":"Drama \/ 3m, 2f\u003cp\u003eSteeped in the difficulty of reunification and reconciliation, American Hwangap tells the story of Min Suk Chun, who some 15 years earlier left his family in a West Texas suburb to return to his native Korea. On the occasion of his 60th birthday (hwangap), a milestone signifying the completion of the Eastern Zodiac and a type of rebirth, he returns to his ex-wife and now adult children as they struggle to reconcile their broken past with the mercurial, verbose and often exasperating patriarch now back at the head of the table. Through a tense birthday weekend filled with humor, heartbreak and half-filled expectations, this American hwangap and its aftermath bears a family not quite whole but still somehow transformed, and not quite happy but still somehow beautiful. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"A delight to watch.\" - The New York Times\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Touching family drama.\" - Variety\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"As refreshingly original in its point of view as in its quirky humor and affecting relationships.\" - San Francisco Gate\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Samuel French, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48342192390384,"sku":"9780573697470","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780573697470_p0.jpg?v=1769897034","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780573697470","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
