Welcome to our first deep dive into a choa member’s inner world. Ki-Sang’s been with choa magazine since 2021, but this is the first time she shares the story behind her name, her current pursuits, and her love-hate relationship with K-entertainment and K-beauty standards with our diasporic community.
