Let's say you've been dating a girl seriously for a while now, you both love each other dearly and are ready to settle down. You both come from a conservative ethnic background (Korean, if it matters). She's finally met your parents and all's well with them. But then you discover her parents disapprove of you and your family and refuse to meet you. The reasons are that you were once previously engaged to another woman 7 years ago (you told your gf about this early on, but her parents found out through the grapevine) and your parents come from a lesser background than hers (your dad is an Ivy League-educated professor and your mom is a physician; her dad is a CEO and has a net worth at least an order of magnitude more than your family's). You graduated from an Ivy League college and an Ivy League law school and make a comfortable six figures. She's absolutely distraught over her parents' disapproval, and it's not clear what will happen to your relationship if you don't win them over. Her dad is especially stubborn. If you get the chance to meet her folks, what do you say to them?
