Furthermore, Kim also mentioned that the collection of themes reflects the unique background and experiences of each artist, and celebrates diversity in the Asian community.
"Growing as a Japanese Korean-American, I often struggle to feel like I have, even among other Asian people, have never felt enough Japanese or Korean," Kim added when telling his personal experience.
"However, traveling to Honolulu, where my father grew up, showed me the true mix of Asian culture. That journey ultimately helped me see and appreciate the nuances in different Asian communities, including my community which was beautifully recorded in this collection," he concluded.
To implement one of the APAHM themes, you just need to go to the Chrome browser on your computer, and visit the Chrome Web Store collection, select the theme and click "Add to Chrome".
