Adopted by white American parents, she left Korea as a 7-month old baby boy and grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. 54 years later, she embarked on a journey of discovering and connecting to her past, where her birth name literally means "the second son".

In May 2017, Taiwan’s Constitutional Court ruled in favor of legalizing same-sex marriage, setting a two-year deadline for the legislature to make it a reality. But that was only the first step on the long quest to make Taiwan the first country in Asia to legalize same-sex marriage.

Double Dads and One Queer Teen
Larry Tung
"Double dads and one queer teen" is a short documentary about a family that is multicultural and gender non-conforming. Met through a newspaper personal ad in 1995, the two dads, one from Taiwan and the other one from suburban Chicago, formed a life partnership and had a baby through surrogacy with the help from a sister in 2003. The child, now a teenager, considers themselves pansexual. The film is a collection of different perspectives from all parties involved. It is a heart-warming and brave story inspirational for all families.
