1. The discovery of the Winter Hibiscus by Saeng in the United States symbolizes an intimate recognition and contentment, depicting the home feeling and connection that Saeng experiences when she emigrates to the United States with her family.

2. The "dynamic character" in "The Winter Hibiscus" is Saeng. She experiences the transformation from a sense of despair and later a sense of intimate connection and contentment when she sees the Winter Hibiscus. This sight means that she has not lost anything in her new environment. She only needs to embrace the rest of the culture, aware that the world is the same everywhere.

3. The theme or the central message of "The Winter Hibiscus" centers on the need to renew hope and determination by embracing challenges without expressing a feeling of loss. That Saeng did not pass the first driving test does not mean she cannot attempt the test again and again. She must remain focused to achieve results.

4. The conflict that Saeng faces is depicted by Saeng vs. her new environment in the United States. She must learn to earn income, become independent, and fit into the American culture to ensure survival.

5. The most dominant generational conflict in "The Winter Hibiscus" is cultural expectations and identity in the United States. Saeng must learn to speak English, the American way. Her behavior must align with her new environment. She cannot force her old cultures on the larger culture. She can only marry some of her old cultures with the new while jettisoning many others that do not fit the cultural milieu of the United States.

Thus, "The Winter Hibiscus" teaches that survival in a new environment does not depend on the cultural setting but the individuals involved. They must resolve to live.
