He escaped North Korea when he was 15 years old, with just a water bottle and the clothes on his back, leaving all he knew in search for a better life. It is this courageous action, this willingness to follow heart and hope, that forces me to see my education as a way to make a tangible impact on the world I live in and the people I live among. PennLiNK provides me with the chance to raise funds and support those, who like my grandfather, are chasing dreams that with our help, can become a reality."},{"id":113,"text":"Sometimes, being at Penn makes me forget what I have; all my blessings quickly turn into to burdens and stressors.
