I’m a physician from Korea pursuing internal medicine. My experiences in patient care and backstage production have taught me to pay attention to the people around me.

A little more about me

In medicine

Listening across languages

During my internship at Asan Medical Center, I learned to respond to ward calls and communicate changes to the team. In outpatient practice in Seoul, I cared for international patients in Korean, English, and Chinese, adapting explanations to each person’s understanding.

Following clinical questions

My hematology and oncology observerships at Georgetown and Northwestern deepened my interest in treatment-related toxicities. At Northwestern, I worked on a proteomic biomarker project focused on immune-related adverse events.

Additional U.S. clinical observerships: primary care in New Jersey and cardiology at NYU Langone.

Freelance production assistant

Working backstage on music and audition programs taught me to notice how my work affected the rest of the team. I carried that habit into medicine, looking beyond my assignments to see where I was needed.

Through a film camera

My film camera comes with me when I travel. As president of my photography club, I planned and organized our exhibition, bringing members’ work together in a shared space.
