Recenzii
"Part travelogue narrative and part cultural study, Lee's book is an absorbing read with full references. . . . Recommended."
"A very rich, amazingly researched work. It blends Asian masculinity studies with Asian American studies. It upturns every single presumption that we might have had about Asian masculinity and Asian American masculinity and desirability. . . . It is a book that is worth reading."
"Lee develops a powerful conceptual framework for understanding the racialized erotic desires that structure both Hallyu and tourism to Korea. Finding Mr. Perfect represents essential reading for all theorists of Korean media fandom, particularly those interested in its gendered and racial logics."
"Lee interrogates how erotic desires rework Orientalist stereotypes, through analysis of K-drama masculinity scripts and conversations with female tourists and Korean men they meet. By exploring a 'mutual gaze' where both parties harbor racialized erotic expectations, Lee offers a compelling examination of desire, power, and transnational romance."

Descriere
Finding Mr. Perfect explores the romantic relationships between Korean men and the women who were inspired by romantic Korean televisual depictions of Korean masculinity to travel to Korea as tourists. The book analyzes the disparate erotic desires that shape such transnational encounters.
