Mika Song: My name is Mika Song. Mika is a Japanese name. My father is Japanese-America. I believe it translates into Japanese as "a good smell", which is funny if you don't always smell good. But my last name is my husband's family's name, which I took when I got married, and it's Korean. His last name is Song. My mom's name...my mom's Filipino. So, my mom's name is not in my name but I'm half Filipino as well. That's why people are sometimes confused about what my ethnicity is with my name.
