Projects
Thirteen projects, one argument.
Everything is below — business, software, impact, field experience and the art. The paintings and 3D work also have a page of their own. Nothing here is a class assignment — each one was started because something about it would not leave me alone.

BusinessKikobanaKikobana is a running brand for women in their twenties and thirties, built on the idea that running slowly is what actually makes you stronger. Five per cent of product revenue is committed to the education, vocational training and living conditions of single mothers and their children in Uganda.BusinessA flea market on JejuI took KKUMUL and Berrapy to a flea market on Jeju Island and sold both brands across a table, which is the fastest and least flattering design feedback available.BusinessBerrapyBerrapy is a character brand about two blueberry brothers who move at completely different speeds. The name is berry plus therapy, and the premise is relief from digital fatigue and recovery through nature.BusinessKKUMULKKUMUL is a hand-lettering fancy-goods brand I launched. Its handwriting is unpolished on purpose, because handwriting that is slightly clumsy settles people down, and the brand exists to help someone deliver a feeling they find difficult to say.Impact
ImpactRebranding Girls Be Strong, and going to UgandaI led the rebranding of Girls Be Strong and then went to Uganda, where I taught art to small children at the Hope Hill learning centre and visited a vocational school for single mothers to hand over techniques from Korea and the pattern for Kikobana’s bag.ImpactGirls Be StrongGirls Be Strong is a non-profit student organisation dedicated to supporting single mothers and their children, and in Kampala, Uganda we provided educational support for young children and financial help for single mothers.Art
ArtFrom a grandmother’s courage to the footsteps of peaceI entered the 2026 youth work contest on the victims of Japanese military sexual slavery, in the art and design category, with a set of goods designs. The contest closes after this was written, so the honest status is entered and nothing more.ArtJuicy HolidayJuicy Holiday was my entry to the 5th IYAC Global Youth Art Competition in 2025. It received an award, and the work was exhibited in Insadong in Seoul.ArtIce AuctionIce Auction is a painting of polar bears in formal clothes bidding at an auction for a single block of ice, made for the Genius Olympiad art category while I was a tenth-grader at British Columbia Collegiate in Seoul.ArtPsychedelic PeacePsychedelic Peace is a psychedelic moving-image work I made in Blender, built to make the tangled stress that modern life produces visible — and then to heal it with music.ArtBikini CityBikini City is a humorous 3D animation I made using replicas of three cartoon characters, built to put a spotlight on the social trend of phone addiction in a way a poster could not manage.
