I approach life proactively, managing my time effciently and maintaining diligence.
My ability to systematically handle tasks as well as collaborating with teams, has been
demonstrated through my experience at KakaoBrain(currently in Kakao). Additionally, my training as a law student at the University of Essex has further refined these skills, such as drafting and reviewing legal documents, providing me with a solid foundation in legal principles
and practices.

LEGAL SKILLS
While studying at the University of Essex, I organized case files, prepared trial
materials, and conducted background research on relevant legal precedents to
prepare and execute a mock trial. Despite feeling nervous, I endeavored to present
thoroughly prepared content to the judge eƦectively, and I ultimately succeeded in
doing so.
I conducted legal research using LexisNexis, Westlaw, and various online legal databases. Additionally, I am proficient in drafting and reviewing a variety of legal documents, including contracts, legal drafts, and case summaries. Through my academic work, I have developed these skills, ensuring accuracy to legal standards.
I regularly stay updated on changes in laws and regulations by receiving updates from legal news websites and academic journals such as ‘Law Gazette’ and ‘법률신문’, and by attending relevant online legal seminars.

Korean consumers have a radar for "translated content." They know instantly when copy was written by a foreigner or fed through a translation tool — and the moment they feel that disconnect, they scroll past. In beauty and wellness, you can't just translate words; you have to translate the culture.
I make global brands sound like they were born in Korea — and make Korean content that travels the other way.
I'm a Korean-native content strategist with a Food Science degree and 4.5 years as a certified yoga instructor. I don't write about products from the outside — I read the ingredient list, I live the routine, and I know which efficacy claims get an ad flagged in Korea.
◼️ WHY MY BACKGROUND MATTERS
• The Scientist: A Food Science degree means I turn ingredient lists into copy customers actually feel — and I know where the legal line sits on efficacy claims (KFDA and platform ad rules), because I write inside it every week.
• The Yogi: In yoga, I diagnose what a student's body really needs. In marketing, I do the same — I find what your customers secretly crave and show them why your product is the answer.
• The Strategist: I plan content as connected series — not random posts — so each piece builds on the last and strengthens your brand's authority over time.
◼️ WHAT I DO
1) Korean Creator Sourcing & Direction
Brands entering Korea struggle to find, brief, and manage Korean creators. I source nano and micro creators matched to brand fit, write briefs that clear KFDA ad-claim rules before a single frame gets shot, and manage usage rights and delivery end to end. A beauty-brand client expanded my contract to cover this role after seeing my SEO results.
2) Short-Form Scripts & Content Strategy (K-Beauty · Wellness)
Viewers decide to stay or scroll in under 3 seconds. I design for that moment: curiosity-driven hooks, retention-focused scripts, and Problem → Empathy → Solution story flow. Currently writing 10 short-form ad scripts per week (English + Japanese) for a global supplement brand. I also edit (CapCut / Premiere Pro) when the project calls for it.
3) Korean SEO & Market Adaptation (Naver + Google)
Native Korean copy with the cultural context transplanted — not translated. Long-form SEO built on real Korean search intent, on both Naver and Google. This is the work Upwork clients have already hired me for, twice.
◼️ PROVEN RESULTS
• Ran an ongoing Naver SEO blog program for a Canadian beauty brand — results led the client to expand my role to Korean creator sourcing & direction.
• Won ₩90M (~$65,000) in Korean government funding for an SME sports enterprise — wrote the application, then ran the budget, the meetings, and a freelancer team through execution. Went on to lead the full digital launch for premium Korean wellness brand "Ritamville" — +30% social followers, +20% web traffic.
• Writing 10 short-form ad scripts a week (English + Japanese) for supplement brand "Hautuki." I don't guess what works — I go through 40–50 of the brand's reels a month and turn the winning patterns into a repeatable hook formula. Five proven angles now at 24K–77K views each; channel peak 220K+.
• Ran a 3-month Xiaohongshu (RED) market-adaptation program for a verified Korean beauty influencer (71K followers) — strategy, native Chinese copy, and ad-compliant claims for the Chinese market.
• Korean on-page SEO for a leading self-storage brand in Asia — 20 keywords across 5 intent clusters, 17 pages, delivered in Korean with English review copies.
