One is from Indian-Korean Heritage. Dad is a dentist.

Education is usually a high priority no matter what you path you're pursuing in life. One is born into that family in Canada. English is a first language.

The other is a Russian teenager who moved across the world to pursue his dream of playing in the NHL. Essentially, he left his family behind and is a teenage immigrant. English is his second language. I'm not sure of his upbringing or support he had in his family or the drive/support for education.

Completely different contexts.
