Karen Kim's family made the bold decision to relocate to the United States from Seoul, Korea, all the way back in the 1960s. This pivotal move would ultimately pave the way for Karen's future endeavors, as her parents, a father who has built a prosperous empire of car dealerships in the Los Angeles area and a mother who, in her former life, held the esteemed title of Miss Korea and now successfully runs her own beauty salon, have always been unwavering in their support of Karen's passions for modeling and acting.
In fact, Karen's own impressive resume boasts a crowning achievement, as she was crowned Miss Korea in the late 1980s. However, despite this glamorous title, Karen has always maintained a tomboyish streak, and can often be found indulging in her love of adventure by riding her Harley motorcycle on a daily basis.
