ACTION BODY - Key Persons


Y.K. Kim

Y.K. Kim is a modern philosopher, and the chairman and founder of Martial Arts World: The home of life champions. There is no one quite like Y.K. Kim. People call him crazy, a big liar, a con artist, and a genius. He is proud that people call him these things because he works like crazy to transform our society one life at a time. He wants to revolutionize YOUR life and change the world with The Action Body Lifestyle. A native of Seoul, Korea, Y.K. Kim serves as a living testament that the American dream is alive and kicking. He left his homeland in 1976 to come to the U.S., with only his black belt and a heart full of hope. Homeless and without a green card, but imbued with a pioneer spirit, he worked hard, shedding blood, sweat, and tears to overcome cultural shock, financial difficulties, and a language barrier in order to achieve the American dream.
