Three People Started and Run BAPS

Jin Young
The heart and Soul of our Sanctuary, Jin Young is a teacher at the Busan International Foreign School. Jin grew up afraid of dogs, as so many Koreans do… but after reluctantly adopting Philip, she changed her entire world view.
She is the one that keeps all of us motivated, organized, and productive.

Leo
That’s me… I divide my time between a handful of jobs. Primarily, I’m a Professor of Spanish at Pusan University of Foreign Studies, where I have worked since 2001. I’m also a radio host on Busan eFM, our city’s english radio station. I’m involved in various english & spanish teaching programs, and have published two english learning methodology textbooks.
I’ve been a dog lover all my life. I’m now attempting to apply my degree in Psychology to animal behavior, and the more I observe our dogs, the more I’m convinced THEY are the emotionally superior species.

Kimhae Onni
This is “Kimhae Onni”. Her nickname is a long story… but basically, she is the person who most loved the shelter from before the time we took over it. She was always interested in going to volunteer there when it was under it’s previous owner. As the shelter is in Kimhae, she ended up being called that. (onni means sister) She is the only person who draws a small part-time payment from BAPS, so she can go during the week and care for the dogs.
