Abstrakt:	This study examines the cultural meanings Korean American women give to participation in sports. Interviews with six Korean American women at a large Midwestern university revealed that their sporting experiences involved a complicated process of identity construction, not only as Asian American women but also as ethnically Korean American women. In addition, the study shows how sport becomes a focal point of negotiations and compromise with regard to gender relations in terms of traditional Korean values and beliefs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
