Michelle & John
Wedding Party
Kimberly Wang
Maid of Honor
One and only younger sister of Michelle. She is the nicer one, didn't cry or whine about food and offered her snacks to Michelle. She's always been talented in art, drawing anime to now studying Industrial Design at Georgia Tech. She has an eye for details and is OCD (like Michelle) so they are both excited to be able to share the wedding experience together. They have had their arguments, but at the end of day they love and are each other's support. She also helps Michelle stay on track and keep her updated with the latest trends; Michelle has been told many times that she has a tendency to pick out eclectic styles.
Jae Pyo
Best Man
Jae Pyo is lifelong friend of John. They have known each other since elementary school. They have been going to the same church, In Christ Baptist Church, for almost 15 years and attended Georgia Tech together where they were roommates for a year. Despite their long track record, John and Jae continue to build their relationship with God at the center. Jae has constantly challenged John to stay within God’s presence and not stray in his spiritual walk with God.
Michelle Lee
Bridesmaid
Mwang and Mlee first met in college at a church gathering. They hung out so much their nickname became Michelle^2. The funny thing is their personalities are complete opposites. They've had plenty of disagreements, the infamous one being if golf was a pickup sport, but nevertheless they can overlook all of their differences because of Christ. Mwang misses her and wishes Mlee was still in Georgia. She now lives in DC and works for IBM as a Consultant. Even though they are far in distance, she appears on Mwang's recent call list more than when they were in college together and the catch is Mlee wasn't always on campus. She was either studying abroad or doing Co-op. She's always supportive and makes MWang strive for more. Mwang can't wait to have Mlee by her side and dance the night a way!
Han Jung
Groomsman
As John’s older brother, Han has always been there for John. John grew up following after the footsteps of his older brother; they played the same sports, musical instruments, extracurricular activities, and even attended the same grade schools and college. Upon Han’s departure to Korea 8 years ago, John had lost his navigator who guided him through his first 17 years of his life. Even though Han now lives half way across the world, they continue to encourage and support each other as they shared the unpleasant experiences of grad school. The physical distance never severed their relationship and John is forever grateful for his older brother.
Julie Lee
Bridesmaid
Julie and Michelle went to Peachtree Ridge High School together, but they never once crossed paths. They both got accepted to Georgia Tech and were introduced through a mutual friend. The rest is history. They became best friends instantly. They were college roommates for 3 years. If Michelle wasn't with John, she was with Julie. Julie now lives in New Jersey and works for Citigroup as a Consultant. Though they are miles apart, they still laugh at the moments waking up and freaking out thinking there was an earthquake to their yolo moments going out for late-night snacks and endless talks in front of their rooms. Michelle is so excited and thankful to have Julie by her side.
Joe Lim
Groomsman
Joe is a friend and a brother of John of over 15 years. They have shared numerous road trips to church retreats and vacations, and always spent time together with our church family. He now lives in Montgomery, AL and works for Hyundai Motors. Although John often jokes that Joe is a ‘slave’ of Hyundai (because of long work hours) and is the financier amongst our church friends, John truly respects him for making the commitment to drive up to GA every week to serve the church. Joe’s committal to serving God helps John not to become complacent in his faith. His steady and sincere heart in serving God has always helped John from growing cold in his spiritual walk.
Hayoung Moon
Bridesmaid
Hayoung and Michelle first met during a church retreat and now go to the same church. Hayoung is Michelle's workout buddy. She's always up for Michelle's HIIT workout challenges. Hayoung is the sweetest; she creates positive vibes wherever she goes, her smile and laughs are contagious. She's also an amazing singer. Michelle has nothing but compliments for Hayoung. Hayoung is currently going to Kennesaw State and studying to be a Pharmacist. When the two are together Michelle forgets there's even an age gap. Michelle can't wait to pop bottles on Hayoung's 21st and on the wedding day!
Steve Kim
Groomsman
Steve Kim is the first friend John made in his neighborhood back in 2002. He may seem indifferent on the outside, but cares for all his close friends regardless of how crazy his own life may be. He always finds time to listen to John’s complaints and share his stresses. Over the past 15 years, Steve and John have discovered that they share a lot of similarities. Their way of thinking, clothing preferences, and interests in various sports are often so similar that their mutual friends joke about them being brothers. John truly enjoys their weekly rock climbing sessions, and playing tennis and golf together as it helps him destress from the hectic work life.
