Hard-wired beliefs

She believes that some beliefs are hard-wired into parents, such as wanting their children to study hard and gain good results at college. The moment the child graduates, those thoughts are immediately transformed into urging them to find a job and meet someone to marry.

"I just don't want to work right after graduation. I need to think clearly about what kind of person I'm going to be and what kind of relationship I want in the future. I don't want to be pushed by the people around me."

Yang has no intention of blaming her relatives when they ask personal questions, because she believes that when they raise such issues they are just trying to make their relationship closer.

"It is just another way that my relatives can show their love for me, so I will respect them, but I will also insist on my own way of life," she said.
