I’m a Korean female (24) in an interracial relationship with a white male (29) and struggling with identity issues

You need to remember first and foremost, that where it matters most, deep down, we are all the the same. Human.

Also, your children will definitely NOT wind up gingers, and probably not even looking primarily white. Firstly, to get redheaded children, you have a 25% chance IF both parents have a redheaded gene. I would say the chances are very small.

I haven’t seen it happen often, where kids from a white an Asian parent loom mostly white. Brandon Lee is the first to pop into my head. My cousin married a Vietnamese man, and their kid is recognizably Asian. In fact, I would almost say, people would mistake him for being fully Asian. (To be fair me and a few of my cousins are mistaken for Asian often... so... er maybe that’s why). He’s fucking cute as a god damn button.

Either way. You’re going to love your husband and children to pieces. And you can always celebrate your culture together. Create some friends who you share culture with, do things that bring you to your cultural roots together. HAVE SOME KOREAN BBQ, because... I mean, is there even a better reason than its freakin’ delicious?!

In the end I think it will be ok.
