She was a member of the South Korean women's team that won the bronze medal at the 1971 World Championships. At the 1973 World Championships, she was limited to the role of "non-playing captain" of the gold medal-winning South Korean women's team. In 1974, she emigrated to the United States, where her father had established an import-export business.[1] The following year, she married the architect Shekhar Bhushan and in 1980 became a US citizen.[2]
Between 1976 and 1991, Bhushan dominated the US National Championships, winning the title in women's singles 11 times, women's doubles 11 times, and mixed doubles 8 times.[3] In 1977, she won the women's singles title at the US Open.[4]
Bhushan returned to her birthplace for the 1988 Olympics, where she competed in women's singles and women's doubles.[5] She also competed in women's singles at the 1992 Olympics and represented the United States in 6 World Championships. She participated in 3 Pan American Games, winning 8 gold medals (including 3 consecutive gold medals in women's singles) and 1 silver medal.
Bhushan retired from competition after the 1992 Olympics and was inducted into the USATT Hall of Fame in 1993.[6]
