1. What's your story? Where are you from?

I’m born in Seoul, Korea and spent my teenage in Utah, USA. I’ve always loved traveling, been to Asia (Japan, China, Hong Kong, India), Europe (UK, France, Greece, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Poland, Belgium, and the Czech Republic), and others like Egypt, Turkey and Dubai. I think from that experience I’ve learned the beauty of diverse cultures such as costume, food, architect, from all over the world and to look at them without prejudice. 0028-a-ver2
