“I like old rockabilly style. I always wear denim on denim with suspenders and sl…” — Sung Jin Park

If I am to choose two words that best describes myself, they are 'self-esteem' and 'guts.' Guts helped me become a global model.

Marc by Marc Jacobs was my favorite. The stage was so big, and there were so many people there. I had very bad vision during the show because I forgot to put in my contacts, but I didn't fall or anything.

I still do all my developing and printing in my darkroom. Being in New York, you get tremendous exposure to great arts. In my student years, I saw exhibitions of August Sander and Diane Arbus. I still go back to their pictures. I don't really go for contemporary photo shows.

Some Korean models may be seen in European Fashion Week, but it is hard to find them in New York.
