[edit] On The Real World

Chung was a cast member on The Real World: San Diego, the fourteenth season of MTV's long-running reality TV show, The Real World, which first aired in 2004.[2] According to her mtv.com biography page, Chung is a second-generation Korean-American woman raised by "traditional" parents in San Francisco, with a tendency to "tell it like it is." At the time she was selected to be on The Real World: San Diego, she was a hard-working student who worked two jobs to pay her tuition, but also enjoyed partying. She was also described by her friends as not having the best taste in men, and although she is very picky when choosing her dates, they feel she tends to overlook obvious signs of trouble.[3]
