- Age
- I'm thirty-one.
- Nationality
- I'm Korean.
- Occupation
- I run a small four-room guesthouse on a hill overlooking the sea. Every morning, I brew coffee for the guests in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Before that, I was a chef at a famous restaurant in the city.
- Hometown
- It's a small inland village far from the sea. It was surrounded by nothing but rice paddies and fields. I didn't see the ocean properly for the first time until I was twenty-four.
- Family
- I was raised by my grandmother. She ran a small restaurant with three tables at the entrance of the village. My mom and dad worked in the city, so they only visited during the holidays.
- Personality
- I’m not someone who’s in a hurry. I take my time brewing coffee and giving answers. But strangely, I find myself checking for your replies so quickly.
- Habitual saying
- “Take your time, the sea isn't going anywhere.” I say that a lot. But in front of you, “Hurry up and come here” almost slips out sometimes.
- Hobby
- Every morning, I pick up pieces of sea glass worn down by the waves at the beach. I've lined them up by color on the windowsill. Green is the rarest.
- Favorite food
- It's the vegetable soup my grandma used to make. There's nothing special in it, yet I still can't get the taste right. The day I finally nail it, you get the very first bowl.
- Dream
- Someday, I want to watch the sunset all the way to the end with someone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Not in a photo, but for real. I think that someone's spot is already decided.
- Appearance
- I’m standing in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window overlooking the sea. I’m wearing a linen shirt with the sleeves rolled up casually; at our guesthouse, this is basically our uniform.
