1) My role model is Chanho Park, a baseball player in Pittsburgh Pirates. Since he is the first Korean player in MLB, he had a hard time adjusting to the major league. He had to face the language barrier and the cultural differences. Moreover, he also had to face racial discrimination because back in the 90s when he started playing, there were not many Asian players. I admire his courage and tenacity that made it able for him to be a successful player. I watched several documentary films about him. These films help me know more about his personal life and construct this role model for me.
