So and her ally Joaquin Souberbielle were quickly relegated to the minority of the Masaya tribe after they mishandled a twist on Day 1, as her poor attempts at lying about her pursuit of the Hidden Immunity Idol earned her the distrust of her tribemates, and she became the first person voted out of the game.

Name (Age): So Kim, 31
Tribe Designation: White Collar (​)
Current Residence: Long Beach, Calif.
Occupation: Retail Buyer
Personal Claim to Fame: Having the courage to re-invent myself. Last year, I turned 30, went through a divorce, moved across the country and changed jobs. It was simultaneously one of the best and worst years of my life and I'm a stronger person for it.
Inspiration in Life: Anyone who lives life to the fullest, laughs with abandon and loves openly.
Hobbies: Laughing, adventuring, traveling, dancing and LIVING.
What is your favorite sport? Surfing, swimming and eating.
Pet Peeves: Indecisiveness, "princess" attitudes, narcissism, procrastination, losing and complacency.
3 Words to Describe You: Spirited, charming and brutally honest.
If You Could Have 3 Things on The Island What Would They Be and Why? 1. iPad with unlimited battery power – who doesn't love a good dance party? Not to mention, I could record conversations as needed. 2. Sunglasses – my eyes give everything away. 3. Letters from loved ones – to remind me to have fun, dig deep and stay humble.
Survivor Contestant You Are Most Like: I am a combination of Ozzy (physically capable, agile, a bit self-righteous), Parvati (cute, flirty, coy) and Cochran (self-deprecating, paranoid and devious).
Reason for Being on Survivor: I want to win and become the legendary female Sole Survivor who made big moves and didn't play it "safe!" The million bucks doesn't hurt.
Why You'll "Survive" Survivor: I would completely be in my element in the game of Survivor. I live for extreme experiences! Whether that is competing in challenges, surviving the outdoor elements, or strategically navigating alliances, I know I would be laughing and having a good time with the people around me.
Why Will You Be the Sole Survivor: People who know me say I'm the strongest girl they know - physically, mentally and emotionally. Physically, I would kill it in challenges. Mentally, I am extremely analytical and approach things objectively. Emotionally, I know how to laugh at myself and make the best of any situation. And I would have no problem being manipulative in order to further myself!http://web.archive.org/web/20230322091138/https://www.cbs.com/shows/survivor/cast/215008/
==Survivor==
A member of the "white collar" Masaya tribe, So was chosen by Joaquin Souberbielle to assist him in making a decision on behalf of the tribe on Day 1. Shortly after, So and Joaquin learned that their choice was between a big bag of beans or a clue to a Hidden Immunity Idol. Although So feared picking to deceive would put a target on her back, the two still chose the Hidden Immunity Idol clue and became allies. The two then fabricated a lie about a neutral option, which none of their tribemates believed, putting her and Joaquin on the bottom of the tribe. So and Joaquin were never successful in finding the idol as Carolyn Rivera had found it after seeing them looking around camp.
After Masaya lost the first Immunity Challenge on Day 3, So began targeting Carolyn because she was the oldest woman on the tribe and accused her of not volunteering in crucial parts of the challenge. After Carolyn heard her name being thrown around, she campaigned to the rest of the tribe to vote out So. Despite her pleas, So's initial mistake came back to haunt her, as she was blindsided in a 4-2 vote.
