GYMBOREE 16SS Product summit in San Francisco

Mar.17.2015 -Mar.20.2015

Attended Namyang intl's first Gymboree product summit fair.

Developed 90 styles knit and woven based on the trend and

developed 30 styles of graphics.

All the graphics are from my creativity.

It was definitely not an easy task, but it was worth it.

Hadn't been awhile in bay area since I graduated high school in Palo Alto.

Felt like I visited hometown :^)

got to see my old friends back in junior high.

voila

here is a snap of two months of hard-work

어쩌다 어른-

Just realizing myself that I'm turning 30 next year in Korean age...

felt - ' I should try something wild.'

the list goes on...

erased "어" to "서" from photoshop

Opening a day with

a GREAT coffee makes work-efficiency go high.

Don't you think?

rushing & going to work 

Branding Korean food - KIM BOP! ( 국민음식 김밥! )

Finally finally

all this time 

I have been waiting to 

eat "Kim-Sun-Seng" kimbop at Migeum station ( 미금역 @ 분당).

It's finally open.

Why I like?
because of its clean taste and it comes in a pretty package!

Kim-Sun-Seng (김선생), Teacher Kim, 

was named after Korean most common last name, Kim. 

However, the word itself of "KIM" also means

 one of the most popular Korean side-dish, salted dried laver 

(black wrapped paper you see in sushi - aka kim-bop in Korean).

I am thrilled to introduce franchised Kim-Sun-Seng (김선생)

because there was no one who could even

think to "brandize" Korean popular snack food. 

Our parent's generation ate kim-bop to eat fast and be filled.

But now, design matters in this generation.

An ordinary Kim-Sun-Seng (김선생) designed 

their own package with a sweet sense of portable hand-wash paper. 

Kim-Sun-Seng (김선생) food is absolutely delicious!

They only use farm-raised chicken egg, 

non-chemical radish, and traditionally pressed sesame oil that

 continued ever since 53 years ago.

The price is about 50cents higher than other ordinary kim-bop, but

to receive pretty packaged kim-bop with fresh ingredients, it's worth it.

visit their website:

 the bottom one is a plain-kim bop i ordered this morning for a lunch.

But it's filled! Less rice, more fresh vegetables :^) 

which I prefer ...

To Hyun-Jin Ryu!

It was one of my bucket-list

to send a letter to Hyun-Jin Ryu, a world-star baseball player, since 

our names are the same, as well as our age.

I heard from the news that he's injured badly last week.

So, I think it's a perfect time for me to encourage with

a warm message and a small drawing.

hope he likes it :^D

Just to note -

we look different.

I am a tiny girl, he's a big guy.

well- i am sending it today!!! finally.. hehe
