After her remarkable performance in Tokyo, Suni Lee’s words of inspiration were quoted at the intersection of S. Robert Street and Sidney Street E. The quote was, “I made the country number one. I did it for my family and to inspire all the little kids in my community.”

Also, the same lines feature in a song called, ‘Suni Lee’ by local rapper Lil Crush. Furthermore, it was very sweet of her grandparents to publically celebrate their granddaughter’s achievements and also promote the local artists. Notably, the wall of the painting belonged to the Lees.

The painting on the walls showed Suni Lee kissing the gold medal. Brimming with joy and pride, Choua Lee, her grandmother, said, “We want to honor Suni Lee for her accomplishments, but at the same time, this mural represents the achievement and success of the Hmong community here in the Twin Cities.”

“In my lifetime, I knew that we would eventually get there, but I certainly never expected that Suni was going to make it this far,” she added.
