    MOVE TO AUSTRALIA
    Born in the Republic of Korea, he moved to Australia with his family in 2009 and gained Australian citizenship four years later. "Since I moved to Australia, I felt like I was Australian. I may look Korean and I have Korean blood, but living here changed my mind. I feel like Australia is a better place to live." His parents relocated when he was age 12, in order to give their children a more relaxed lifestyle. "In Korea, it's always stressful. There's always pressure." (sbs.com.au, 18 Dec 2017; owia.org, 12 Dec 2017; olympics.com.au, 31 Dec 2013; abc.net.au, 12 Sep 2017)
    He was inspired after working at the 2012 Junior World Championships in Melbourne, VIC, Australia, and was looking for a sport that kept him fit.
