Summary:
"A third-generation Korean American teen goes to extreme and hilarious lengths to connect more with her Korean heritage"-- Provided by publisher.

Jane Choi is a typical Nebraskan teen--a corn-fed lover of Husker football. But lately, she feels like she's missing something. Her non-Korean classmates--that's everyone--are immersed in K-pop, K-dramas, K-beauty . . . basically, K-everything. But for Jane, kimchi? Not a fan. Bibimbap? What is that? Her mom even named her after the very not-Korean Jane Eyre. Everyone seems to know more about Korean culture than Jane. And she isn't sure whether she's more annoyed at them, or herself. With a baby brother on the way, Jane is determined to save her new sibling from enduring the same humiliation. a totally foolproof plan to become the K-Jane of her dreams. What better way than to start a private social media account about all things Korean so her closest cousins can learn from her? But Korean heritage and identity are more complicated than taste-testing multiple varieties of kimchi in front of a camera. And when online virality crashes into real life, Jane's plans might just go K-boom in her face.
