The role of medical doctors is important now more than ever in this pandemic era. The impact of influential Youtubers is also increasing, as the public heavily relies on the platform to obtain and share information. Yet it is rare to use both the titles of Doctor and Youtube creator to describe one person’s career like Dr. Jang’s.

Join us as we listen to Dr. Jang’s insights on educating audiences through his Youtube Channel on healthcare matters during the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Jang will also highlight his career developments in becoming a doctor as well as a star Youtuber in the U.S.
The discussion will be led by moderator Dr. John Yoo, Pediatric Dentist of Beam City Dental and host of the popular Youtube channels, JBRO and Dr. John Yoo.

About the Moderator:
Dr. John Yoo |
Dr. John Yoo was born in South Korea and immigrated to the US at age 4 with his parents and older brother. 5 years later, at age 9, John and his family were scheduled to move back to Korea to follow their father's job location, but a young Dr. Yoo and his brother insisted they would study in the US instead. Their parents took a leap of faith and embarked on what would become a 10 year "gireogi" status with their father working overseas, and their mother looking after the kids in the US. Vowing to make their parents' immense sacrifice worthwhile, both brothers promised each other to work their hardest to make their dreams come true. |
