My journey as a journalist began in 2016 at YTN, South Korea’s foremost 24-hour news network. Three years later, I transitioned into the dynamic world of entertainment, beginning with in-depth coverage of the industry titan, CJ ENM. My initial focus was broad, encompassing everything from drama series to general entertainment, which provided a holistic view of the content landscape before I cultivated a deep specialization in film.

Significant milestones have marked my career, including the honor of reporting from the 2022 Cannes Film Festival as a special correspondent. I have also maintained a consistent presence at the Busan International Film Festival, Asia’s most influential cinematic event, covering it for three consecutive years since 2022. Furthering my engagement with the film community, I have also taken the stage as a moderator for the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival.

To date, my critical foundation is built upon an extensive viewing of over 1,400 films, and I remain deeply engaged by authoring monthly reviews of at least six new titles. This critical perspective is enriched by insights gained from over 400 interviews with the architects of modern cinema, from visionary directors like Bong Joon-ho, Park Chan-wook, Hirokazu Koreeda, and Celine Song, to iconic actors such as Lee Jung-jae, Song Kang-ho, and Tang Wei.

At the core of my professional philosophy is a commitment to making content more accessible and meaningful. I strive to be a bridge, connecting the vision of artists with the hearts and minds of the audience. As a content expert and film critic, I am devoted to fostering insightful dialogue and contributing to the cultural conversation. My ultimate ambition is to not only support the flourishing of Korean cinema but also to deepen the global appreciation for the profound art of filmmaking.
