Emanuel Hahn is an LA-based photographer and director who has recently released the second edition of his highly acclaimed book "Koreatown Dreaming," which depicts individual businesses in Koreatowns across the U.S. through photography and written narratives. Hahn, who is of Korean descent, grew up in Saipan, Singapore, and Cambodia before moving to the U.S. for college. During the conversation, Hahn discusses how his early life as a third-culture kid piqued his interest in the Korean diaspora and ultimately led him to document the Korean diaspora through photography. He also details the process of creating "Koreatown Dreaming" and the reasons behind its different aspects such as its structure and photography style.
