My study was a classroom ethnography of two kindergartens where children from native Korean and multicultural families were together in one classroom. The purposes of the study were to describe and understand interactions between kindergarten children from native Korean and multicultural families, how the children construct their attitudes or perceptions of each other, and how teachers and parents appear to facilitate these interactions. The study was conducted using (1) participation observation in two classrooms, (2) semi-structured interviews with children from native Korean and multicultural families, their teachers, and parents, (3) sociometric measures, (4) analysis of children's art and (5) classroom mapping. These diverse research methods allowed vivid and valid descriptions to understand the questions guiding the study. The findings show that interactions between children from native Korean families and multicultural families were based on each child's concrete situation. Race was understood as socially and politically constructed. Two concepts, intersectionality and Bourdieu's capital played a major role in explaining the children's interactions. Also, the process of construction of children's perceptions and attitudes of each other showed that children reflect pervasive discourse embedded in a larger society as well as actively participate in the process by use of various tactics. Lastly, teachers and parents had a perspective of colorblindness. This approach failed to understand multiculturalism or multicultural families with unequal social and cultural hierarchies and try to make a change for social justice or equality. The research questions were understood through two kinds of lenses; a macroscopic lens, globalization and unequal power issues, and a microscopic one, constructed and situated phenomenon in South Korea. The finding was understood in a socio-cultural system with power issues and interpreted as a window which minors the complexity of the society.
