My parents said that they didn't think they'd be able to keep a close eye on me until my sister was done with her exams so they suggested I go study abroad."

Roy Kim added, "At the time, I was so happy to be away from my mom's nagging. When I was in Korea, I was forced do all kinds of extracurricular activities, but when I was abroad, I spent my time playing basketball after school."
