While in business school, he decided he needed to take up an Asian language to help build up his resume. Due to the popularity of Japanese and Chinese language courses, he decided to study Korean. He studied the Korean language for 18 months before becoming a transfer student at Korea University in 2002.

In October 2013 Hammington married Korean Jung Yumi. They had two wedding ceremonies, a traditional Korean one in Korea and another in his home country, Australia, at the Melbourne Zoo. The couple welcomed a healthy baby boy named William on July 12 2016.
