Who has been the biggest influence in your life?

My dad. He is a typical Korean immigrant in America and is seriously the hardest working, most dedicated person I’ve ever met, if I could be half as persistent as he in his work, then I will be a satisfied man.

What do you feel is your most attractive physical feature?

Gosh, too hard to pick, but I’m going to go with my smile, hair, body, or Korean eyes. (In no particular order of course!) I hope this doesn’t make me sound conceited.

Occupation: Student

Describe your background (where did you grow up, etc.)?

I grew up in Taegu, South Korea and eventually moved to Arizona during middle school. It was always my mom, me and two other siblings. I learned the most from my mom, since we’re closer than my siblings are to her, over the years she’s taught me Korean as well as how to make numerous Korean dishes.

If you could have an endless supply of any food, what would you get?

Probably Korean food. It’s so good! A food in particular would probably be odeng (오뎅), I loved going to the stands in Korea and buying some on cold nights! It’s so tasty!
