Her father, an African-American soldier in the United States Army, met her Korean mother when he was stationed in South Korea after the Korean War. After Sohn's older brother was born, her mother decided to move to the United States as she felt that a child of Korean and African-American parentage would be discriminated against in Korea.〔 Sohn had a difficult childhood; she was often teased for her mixed heritage,〔 her schizophrenic father physically abused her mother, and her older brother was killed when she was a teenager. She attended and graduated from Warwick High School in Newport News,〔Life Servers Sohn Well; Actress Graduated from Newport News School, Richmond Times-Dispatch, November 7, 1998, B4, by Mike Holtzclaw〕 where she struggled with an addiction to cocaine and pills that continued into her twenties.
