Instructor at 33 Day Korean Challenge
Before I was born, my dad was running a landscape business. One day, he hired a lady who didn't have a car to drive to the work place.
He offered his kindness to pick her up every single day. But whenever he drove, she just fell asleep.
"That's how I met your mom." - he said. Couple years later, I was born.

I was born in Daegu, South Korea on October 31, 1994. As a honeymoon baby, I became the first child of my family.
I was kind of a kid who would run an election campaign to be a president of the middle school - which I actually did.
Teachers and classmates LOVED me. Well, who wouldn't love a kind, happy, and smiling kid?

But something happened and the smile on my face had completely gone for a while.
It was a military service. As a duty of Korean men, I worked at the republic of Korean air force for 2 years.
It was brutal. I got bullied by my seniors and the hierarchical system of Korean military took away my happiness day by day.

Now that I'm looking back though, those painful days were one of the best things that happened to me.
It drove me to study abroad in United States, to spend time searching for what I truly care, and to follow the passion that I discovered.
And among those experiences, the highlight was definitely this:

And among those experiences, the highlight was definitely this:
It was March 14, 2019, sunny and lovely day. When a boy living at a peaceful town called Gayang in Seoul, South Korea, uploaded his very first video content that teaches about the Korean language on his newly created Instagram account: Koreanhoon.
Yeah, that's right. You guessed it correctly.
That's how I met my love - Korean language learners.

That's how I met my love - Korean language learners.
Ever since then, I've spent most of my time to serve Korean language learners around the world.
I love them because of their pure passion toward a foreign culture. They're generally kind, patient, and lovely people.
Now, my dream is to make Korean a world language by creating a streamlined learning experience which will be enjoyed by billions of people.

Hopefully you've gotten a good sense of why I'm teaching Korean and where I'm heading to.
Deciding to start learning a new language is not easy. But I did my best to make it as easy and as seamless as possible.
Hope to see you in my classroom.
See you soon!
