Sang grew up as an overweight Korean boy working weekends at his parent's convenience store. His family lived in one of the worst neighbourhoods in Scarborough. Due to his weight and Asian background, Sang was constantly bullied as a child. This fueled him to become a four-time age-group Canadian Freestyle Wrestling Champion with the help of Doug Pound and BTS founder John Park. He has run seven full marathons and four Ironman triathlons. Sang's massive life-changing moment was surviving a horrific car accident at the age of 16. In that moment, Sang realized how precious life is, and he vowed to live every day like his last day.

As captain of the 1990 Western Wrestling University Team, Sang led his underdog team to UWO's first-ever Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic Union's Team Championship title.
