Chhuong So was born in 1972 in Phnom Penh, Cambodia into a family of two parents, a grandmother, three sisters, and a brother. His family's lives changed drastically in 1975 when the Khmer Rouge invaded Cambodia.


Instead of going to school, the Khmer Rouge put him to work tending cattle and planting rice paddy bunches in the fields in the Bamboo Village of Prey Veng, Cambodia. Then, he was sent to work in the labor camp in Prey Clog Village of Cambodia from 1977 to 1979, until the Vietnamese army invaded Cambodia and liberated the people. By then, he had lost both parents, their grandmother, and a brother. His sister, Kom, was separated from them at the border of Cambodia and Thailand in 1979.
