Bio :
- I was born and lived in Seoul, Korea for most of my early life. I married in 2013 and my lovely
sons-- K, Jeremiah, and David -- were added to my family in 2015, 2017, and 2017,
respectively. (Yes, they don't need to go to military for 2+yrs and face North Korea being away
from home like most Korean males and I have to, since they are US citizens! Sons, you got
every reason to love your dad..)
Personality :
- Get easily bored on things. So stuffs that I make are barely boring.
(as they already passed my tough criteria)
- Love things that are simple and unique at the same time. That is my motto.
- Think much before acting when it's details, but act before thinking when it's big pictures.
Strength :
- Think differently, stay away from conventions
- Diligent and committed
(see my Publications and Research with all the babies born in the middle of my PhD
away from my home country!)
- Brave, even reckless inside
Weakness :
- Think differently, stay away from conventions
- Not used to writing concisely, just thinking concise writing is as boring as tree without
branch, leaf, and flowers. I believe conciseness only matters when it is fun enough for
people to read through.
- Imperfect English, but improving
Hobby and likes :
- Not wasting life doing facebook, drinking, parties, online games, etc.
- Feel purified when I read books of various topics. Sadly, couldn't find much time for it after
entering the academy. Malcolm Gladwell is my favorite author.
- A Big fan of baseball. Why? It is a sport where champions are caught by underdogs
most frequently. It is a mental sport, requiring both consistency and creativeness, and
one moment or one mistake can determine a whole game.
It has so much life lessons. I love analyzing baseball data using SABRmetrics.
- Happiest when I am on my ski (also when I drive on highway with the same speed).
