Early Life
Jin Bo Cheung was born July 23, 2528 on the colony of Chi Rho to two civilian parents. His mother was a teacher at a local school, while his father was a renowned author, famous for his spy novels, several of which had been adapted into popular movies. Reading his father's novels led a young Jin to fantasize about being a spy like the ones in his father's novels. He would later attribute these fantasies to him joining the Office of Naval Intelligence. During his time on Chi Rho, he lived a rather idyllic lifestyle as he had a nice house and attended one of the best schools on the colony.

However, in 2535, with refugees pouring in from the Outer Colonies due to the Human-Covenant War, as well as an increasing fear of the Covenant discovering Chi Rho, the Cheung family moved to the Inner Colony of New Carthage. From here he would continue with his education, graduating in the top of his class in one of the best universities on the planet. It was due to these high scores, as well as time served in NROTC, when he applied for membership into the Office of Naval Intelligence Section III in 2548, he was quickly approved.
