Inae Piercy recounts some of her childhood memories of growing up in Seoul, South Korea, as being pretty boisterous, girls and boys running up and down the street, shouting to girls and boys to come out and play. “We played hide and seek ‘til moms calling for their children to come back home to sleep.”
