At age five, Ms Vernice Vee took up taekwondo, and then pursued the martial art for years, but a serious injury brought it to an abrupt end.
She tore her anterior cruciate ligament during training while in Secondary 4, and underwent a procedure to replace the torn ligament, followed by a year of physiotherapy.
