To improve her chances of Ivy League admittance, Ji-Su's parents send her from South Korea to San Francisco for senior year, where she must also continue attending seons, or arranged dates. Though initially resentful, Ji-Su enjoys American life--including the attention from two different guys. The international-student perspective and glimpse into Korean culture distinguishes this breezy story from other genre titles.
