Reflecting on studies with Korean migrants in New Zealand, this article aims to identify the issues associated with later life migration and transnational family life among older Korean people who have immigrated in their old age. The discussion in this reflection highlights that older migrants often face challenges in ageing in a place where their norms and values are eroded, although later life migration can also allow them to enrich their life experience overseas. Their intergenerational relationships are influenced by transnational family contexts. Implications for social work practice are discussed, focusing on ‘anti-anomic’ practice in working with migrant populations and their communities
