Jessica Kim: Hello, my name is Jessica Kim. My Korean name is [Korean language]. So in Korean, we say Kim, the last name first, and then the name. So I would say [Korean language] And that means, "Hello, my name is Kim Meyeon. Now the funny thing about my name, is originally when I wrote this book, it wasn't Stand Up, Yumi Chung! It was, Stand Up, Jungmi Chung, which is the inverse of the syllables in my Korean name. But I thought that might be a little too hard to pronounce, so we went with Yumi.
