Possible Thesis

A common theme in all my classes that I am taking (aside from TESOL) is that I need a thesis.  While I am not married to any of my ideas, they all seem to be general/broad ideas.  My current frontrunner is studying Bi-Lingual Koreans and examining how this affects their lives- professionally, socially, etc.  This could be done by way of an ethnography, phenomenological study or even a case study. 

I feel it is an interesting since being proficient in both languages is a goal of most Koreans, but what happens once that goal is achieved?  What does it lead to? Is there a significant change?  If so, what is it?

It's a broad topic and will need to be refined and focused to get a clearer goal.  But a least I have a starting point.
