"When you look at Ejae, there are truly many ironic aspects. Her grandfather was a very famous actor in Korea during the 1960s and 70s (Shin Young-kyun, born in 1928). He was accepted into the dental school of Korea’s most prestigious university but chose to become an actor instead, a profession that was looked down upon at the time. He later earned a lot of money but donated an astronomical amount equivalent to 50 million dollars. The fact that his granddaughter composed 'Golden' while going to the dentist also seems to be a meaningful coincidence. It feels as if her grandfather’s virtue has reached her."

everything is connected. all these "failures" literally created her success

Her life is the definition of everything happens for a reason. When she’s explaining her background I’m like OHHHHH that makes sense 😂

I agree, my family moved to Fort Lee and the Korean food there is legit, and authentic to what you can find in Korea.

Fascinating!  Ejae's had quite a journey, filled with more bumps and turns than we initially thought.  Throughout, however, she never lost her focus on, and love for, music.  What a dedicated student she was, whether as a trainee, a university student, or an NYC resident.  It's all contributed to the skills and talent we now get to witness.  Great interview!

She grew up in New Jersey so she is as much American as she is Korean.  Tall and lovely!  
I've been to New Jersey and I like New Jersey!   My family and I went there for a wedding.

Beautiful intelligent woman

Love a highly intelligent woman.

I love hearing about her journey. Everything happens on God's timing.

Good on you Ejae… finally achieving your dream… hardwork paid off…❤❤
