Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Dina Kang has appealed the denial of her asylum petition.
The evidence Kang presented does not compel a finding of past persecution. Although Kang has suffered harassment and discrimination, the adversities she has suffered do not rise to the level of "persecution."
The evidence also does not compel a finding of well-founded fear of future persecution. Although Kang credibly testified that she subjectively genuinely feared persecution, she must also show credible, specific evidence that support a reasonable fear of persecution. To do this, Kang could show either "a pattern or practice of persecution of people similarly situated" or that she "is a member of a disfavored group coupled with a showing that she, in particular, is likely to be targeted as a member of that group." Kang's evidence may support a likelihood of harassment and discrimination similar to what she suffered before, but there is no evidence to show that her fear of future "persecution" is well founded.
PETITION DENIED.
