INTRODUCTION

I. History

     Intermarriage between Korean and Filipinos couldn't be denied. Marriage of Filipinos into a very nationalistic country is hard to believe. However, we cannot stop the flow. A result, siblings from these families  produce dominant characteristics from that of their parents. Environment may also influence mostly their growing stage. Parents seem had the hard time adjusting and knowing what to do. Nevertheless, the sweet smiles of these young kids always bring the family together.

     To better understand intermarriage, the New World Encyclopedia points out what is intermarriage.

Intermarriage is a form of exogamy, or marrying outside of one's social group. Whether that group is defined by religion, race, or other difference, the difference is a barrier that is not easy to cross. When historical meetings of the groups have led to conflict and violence, the fear of the other becomes hatred and the barrier almost impenetrable. Marrying and producing children across such a barrier is difficult if not unthinkable and impossible. With increasing contact between different peoples of the planet, views towards inter-religious and inter- racial marriage have changed considerably. Many such marriages have taken place, and the children, while still experiencing some isolation, have begun to find their place in the world. In fact, it may be that the effect of intermarriage is to overcome the barriers and tensions between those of different social groups through the bonding of new familial groups. Such families may be the foundation of a happier world of peace and harmony.

II. Importance
