Sihn-Woong Guhm, age 84, passed away on June 5, 2026, at his home in Hatfield, PA. He was born January 2, 1942, to the late Yong-Joo and Soon-Rea Guhm.
Sihn-Woong was raised in Seoul, South Korea. He was the second eldest of 7 children. He graduated from the prestigious Seoul National University, where he received a PhD in nuclear engineering. In 1974, he married Ok-Myung Guhm (neé Lee) and emigrated to the United States, where he became a naturalized citizen. He initially worked in technology and later owned a dry-cleaning business. Sihn-Woong was a lifelong learner, who never went anywhere without a book in his hand. He especially loved studying the Bible, and took seminary classes later in life. He was a faithful member and Deacon of the Korean United Church of Philadelphia for over 40 years.
