Ehwa Woman's University
In 1963, the dance department at Ehwa Woman's University was built. The dance department helped the students enhance their expressions and creativity through dance and music. Our Dance department has prooduced many wonderful dance artists and many of Korea's traiditional performances have been held here. If this department wasn't built, I wouldn't have graduated here. This experience was special becaus of how I got to learn Korean traditional dance and ballet at the same time. -

I decided to become a professional ballerina
When I was at a really young age, around the age of 4 or 5, I was watching a ballet show on TV. The moment I saw the graceful dancers, I fell in love with ballet. Since then, I had a dream to become a ballerina. I would take ballet lessons, dance in front of peope, and dream every night of me on stage, dancing just like the people I saw on TV. This is when my future career dream began. -
I moved to Korea.
I han't stayed in Utah for a long time. When I was 8, I left Utah and moved to Seoul, Korea. I started 1st grade once I got there. Luckily, my parents would always speak Korean with me, so it wasn't difficult for me to adjust to the new place. Even in Korea, I would learn ballet, and still work my way to my dream. I would do recitals and do my best in every performance, so that people will remember me later on. -
I met Raymond for the first time
I was going to a Korean school and when I was in 4th grade, there was a new student that transferred to my school. He was a boy from New York City. I wanted to get to know him because we were both from America. He was really smart and he was also really good at soccer. Since 4th grade, we were in the same class all the way through 6th grade. After elementary school, we split and went to different middle schools. Still, luckily, we kept in touch and met a few times coincidentally. -

Lastly, my mom got a job at a ballet company and there, she would model and also do ballet and do performances. -
