Hyojung Young, or rather 'Hyony' as known by her friends, grew up in Los Angeles. She's the daughter of a high ranking executive with a Korean automotive parts affiliate. While certainly not in the same category as the celebrities that rule the streets of LA, her family is certainly a member of the Millionaire Club. To say that she was spoiled growing up would be an understatement. Going to the beach during high tide for the best surfing or taking a yacht out to watch the sunset would be the norm for Hyony. If she's not enjoying an evening bonfire on the beach, she could be shopping with her friends with not a care in the world. Daddy's money helps make the world seem bright.
That would be until it came time to be an adult. Her father INSISTED that she go to college to become a productive member of society. She wasn't that skilled at dancing to get scholarships. She was just an average student (since she never truly applied herself in highschool) so UCLA was out of the question, and she settled for USC. Her major was 'General Studies', and eventually switched to East Asian Area Studies. She figured this would be an easy degree. Plus, it would help accommodate the fact that weekends start on Thursday while in college. But none of this made her feel complete.
Upon graduating from USC with that 2.5 GPA, Hyony decided that she would go "backpacking through Asia" - much like many Americans would go backpacking through Europe. Growing up, her father did make her take taekwondo classes and eventually shimgumdo. It was his way of giving her some sense of her family heritage while soaking up the luxuries of the United States. She wanted to connect with her heritage. All of her friends thought it sounded like a great adventure until they discovered she wasn't going "glamping" (glamorized camping). Rather, she was going to "rough it". No cell phones, no internet, no Daddy's money. How completely dreadful!
Well, something must have happened over in South Korea because she came back with a renewed purpose in life. She's become an active participant in helping the Korean community by donating financial resources or simply her own time to the Korean American Coalition, the Korean Resource Center, and Respect Community Center. Her father would still like to see her get a 'real' job, but for now philanthropy has taken hold.
