I don’t identify as British, so please don’t… refer to me as British, because I identify as Korean. That’s just my culture, that’s my home country. That’s exactly how I look now, and I also identify as Jimin—that’s my Korean name… I know it’s a little bit confusing for some people. Nobody’s ever come out as Jimin or Korean, but this is something that you guys know if you’ve followed my journey for the last eight years. I’ve really struggled with identity issues, with who I am… It’s a very tough one, So I’ve finally had the courage. I’ve undergone my racial—I can’t think of the word—transitional surgery. I’ve transitioned to a non-binary person—they/them, Korean/Jimin and I finally have the Korean look, so I’m actually really happy.”
