Where We Begin follows Jimmy, a Korean American seeking a sense of belonging through the lens of historic places. As he navigates his race, relationships, family, and architecture, the film explores how a less traditional—far from "tiger mom"—parenting style may have shaped his identity. Commissioned to compose a soundscape blending ambient textures and minimalist guitar melodies, the music subtly underscores Jimmy’s quiet dissatisfaction with the path his life has taken.
