Young Kim is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on October 18, 1962 in Incheon, South Korea. Young O. Kim, born Kim Yong-ok on October 18, 1962, is an American politician who was a member of the California State Assembly. She was a Republican and represented the 65th Assembly district, which included parts of northern Orange County. She is the first Korean American Republican woman to be elected to the California state legislature.

In 2014, she was elected to the Assembly. She defeated Sharon Quirk-Silva, a Democratic Assemblymember. Kim was defeated by Quirk-Silva in a rematch in 2016.

In 2017, Kim announced she would be running for the Orange County Board of Supervisors, a nonpartisan office, in the 4th district, which includes the cities of Fullerton, Placentia, La Habra, and Brea, plus portions of Anaheim and Buena Park. However, in January 2018, immediately after Royce announced his retirement, Kim publicly declared that she would instead enter the race to succeed Royce as the representative for California’s 39th congressional district. Royce endorsed Kim the day after announcing his retirement. Her opponent was Democrat Gil Cisneros. Polls showed a tight race throughout the campaign, with FiveThirtyEight rating the race as a toss-up. Early results on the night of the election showed Kim holding a 52.5%-47.5% lead, but Kim ultimately lost the election to Cisneros, who received 50.8% of the vote to Kim’s 49.2% after mail-in ballots were counted. She conceded on November 18.

In 2018 Kim was the Republican Party candidate in California’s 39th congressional district. Kim was defeated by Gil Cisneros in the general election. Had she won, Kim would have become the first Korean-American woman elected to Congress. She has filed to rematch Cisneros in 2020.

Kim and Charles Kim have been married since 1986. Four children were born to them. Christine, their oldest child, graduated from UC Irvine. Kelly, Alvin, Hannah, and Alvin graduated from Cal State Fullerton.
