that's kind of normal, for women to be called "[insert child's name here]'s mom."
Right. In fact, once a woman gets married, has children, and settles as a housewife, she rarely gets called by her own name, other than by friends she might have had before the marriage. (I haven't lived in Korea for 20 years though so take this with a grain of salt.) She's almost always "so-and-so's mom", to her extended family and everyone in the neighborhood. Her parents-in-law would certain call her "___ 's mom". Her own mother calling her that would not be out of ordinary either. 'Cause it's not like a woman has any identity outside motherhood once she spawns, oh no. *rolls eyes*
