A new crop of emerging South Korean soccer (football) players have followed in the footsteps of Manchester United's Park Ji-Sung and have broken into top flight European football clubs.
Chu-Young Park has been a regular starter for the French Ligue club AS Monaco for the past two years. Park has a tally of eight goals and eight assists on a team that's competing for the top spot in the league. At the age of 24, it's likely that Park will be pursued by other top European clubs as he continues to play well.
In the English Premier League, the Bolton Wanderer's had signed Chung-Yong Lee at the age of 21. Like Park, Lee plays either striker or wing midfielder and has already scored two goals in five appearances for his club.

Went out and celebrated Marc Kim's birthday last night at some Korean BBQ joint in the industrial part of K-town.
I have to make a note that this is the first time that I've seen Marc with a girlfriend in the 9 years I've hung out with him in LA. He looked like a little kid with a new toy...very happy.

Allie & Facebook Withdrawal

I recently went back to work at the office working on a project for Bank of the West. It's been a abrupt change of pace from the last six months when I was working from home and enjoying unemployed time w/ Allie.
One of the drawbacks with my current project is that I have restricted access to the internet. That means no Facebook. And worse, I can't even look at pictures of Allie on Facebook or Picasa. Hence, this is why I'm updating www.eugenechang.com...so that I can check back here once in awhile and stare at pictures of Allie.
It seems like Allie's been growing a lot in this past month. She's six and a half months old now and it seems like an eternity (or a fleeting moment?) since we first brought her home from the hospital.
Allie is actually acting like a normal baby and cries on a daily basis. I'm not sure whether it's because she's cutting her first teeth. This week was the first time that I can remember where Judy and I eagerly ran out the door for work cause Allie was crying all morning. "Let's get out of here!"
Allie definitely goes through different stages every month. Her favorite past time right now is to walk around while perched on top of my shoulders. My traps do start to burn after about five minutes though.
