Background: Originally intended to be a store for middle-aged women, Forever 21 has become a mecca across the board for recession-istas seeking affordable, stylish couture. The company was founded in 1984 by Jin Sok Chang and her husband after they emigrated from South Korea, and the business has stayed in the family ever since. Chang continues to serve as chief merchandising officer.
A devout Christian, Jin Sook Chang attends religious services every morning at 5:00 a.m., and each bag from Forever 21 is inscribed with John 3:16, the Biblical verse proclaiming God's love. Preach, sister!
