Jae Park’s Life Story 

Jae had been with his brother for as long as he could remember. 

They had spent most of their lives traveling around the country and while that meant he had seen more than the average kid it also meant he hadn’t really had a home before.

His brother was an artist and so they would move every time his muse for a place ended. 

He held onto the little things tho. Every time they would go somewhere his brother would take him to the local hardware store and let him pick out a sample can of paint. (Since those were free) He was allowed to paint one wall.

That all changed when they happened on Springhill, NJ. Jae had just turned 13 years old when his brother put a full can of paint on the table. 

He would be able to paint as much of his room as he liked because this is where they were going to stay forever. 

Jae found out the reason for their stay was that according to his brother a family member had left them his old run down club. 

It was nothing at first but after many years and a lot of “loans” they were finally able to open up Dance Again. 

Jae was 16 when the place became fully operational and quickly fell in love with everything about it. He would sneak in at night and watch the patrons from the top balcony of the club. 

Years passed and the club became more and more popular. He didn’t notice then but his brother was beginning to succumb to the stress of the business. 

When Jae turned 18 he was accepted into the NYU Stern School of Business hoping to get a degree and help his brother out with the club. However, his studies were cut short as he received a call from one of their investors that his brother hadn’t been seen for at least a week. 

Jae rushed home and when he got to their apartment he found all of his brothers stuff still there except for his notebook and over night bag. 

Jae called the police and they began to do a search but something told him his brother was gone. 

Jae dropped out of school and began running the club on his own at 21. It was hard at first but as he grew older he grew into a man he thinks his brother would be proud of. 

Sometimes when Jae goes to bed he hopes his brother will come back. He thinks that if he makes Dance Again the most amazing place in the world that it will entice his brothers muse.
