Harry Yoon was born in 1971 in South Korea and moved to the United States with his family when he was five years old. He recalls growing up in the East Bay fondly, with parents who recognized and nurtured his passion for entertaining others at an early age. Although he did “a little bit of film school” in college, his first career was in the tech industry. Having seen his parents sacrifice so much for their kids, Harry initially chose to pursue a stable career over his dream of working in film.
