    abstract = {Based on in-depth interviews and FGI, the study explored how Korean students as non-native
residents in the United States negotiate their identities. The researcher interpreted the data as suggesting that
consumption of ICTs by this group accounted for both the extent to which its members engaged in cultural
relaxation and the acquisition of a cultural toolkit which allows them to function in the new culture. Furthermore,
drawing an interpretative map, the researcher argues that the process of negotiating identities through
consumption of ICTs would be understood in relation to structural conditions and personal experiences which
in turn relate to cultural capital. Further, implications of the study are also discussed.}
