==Early life and education==
Jane Jungyon Kim was born on the island of Manhattan in New York City on July 9, 1977, to parents who immigrated to the U.S. from Seoul, South Korea, in 1971.〔 Her grandfather was a prominent prosecutor in Seoul, and her father served the District Attorney's office in New York as a prosecutor. Kim grew up learning both the English and Korean languages. At age 14, Kim began studying taekwondo, eventually earning a black belt. She was involved with community activism, especially the issue of homelessness.〔 She decided in high school to stop reciting the Pledge of Allegiance—she rejected the Pledge words "with liberty and justice for all" because that goal was not available to all Americans.
Kim graduated from Stanford University with a bachelor's degree in Political Science and Asian American Studies.〔 She settled in San Francisco in the late 1990s and in 2005 enrolled in the UC Berkeley School of Law. Kim earned a law degree, and was admitted to the State Bar of California in December 2009.〔
