Jan. 6th field notes

Sujin, second kid, was hospitalized to be ready for her back surgery. She has suffered from chronic back disease. She already experienced back surgery three time before. Her mother said she will be in hospital for two or three months after operation committed on Jan. 8th. Sujin's surgery resulted in huge medical expenses. Her mother said they were asked for more than $10,000 for this operation. They already had debts for previous surgery. A community in her hometown has helped her family financially a little bit.

some concerns I have.

Dear Members.

HAPPY NEW YEAR~~!!

I'm just curious if I go to the right direction in terms of taking pictures of two subjects I'm working on.

I know what I need for a photo-elicitation, but I am somewhat concerned about what I'm missing here.

As I talked to David before, I might need different aspects of photographs for a photo-elicitation. Even though I understood, the fact that this is my first attempt for a photo-elicitation in photographing the subjects makes me worried about what I've done here.

Your feedback helps me.

Joon.

Its very narrow street allows only one person to pass by.
