Sang Ki Lee garnered just over 400 write-in votes and fell behind three other candidates.
Won Lee ran unopposed. Kim also ran unopposed; and garnered over 400 votes to win another three-year term.
The Korean-American community in New Jersey now has five people serving on various school boards. They are: Jason Kim of Palisades Park, Suh Kyung Kim of Englewood Cliff and Carney Choi of Tenafly.
