Second Major: ABT(Information Security and Assurance)
Hobbies and CCA Interests: I joined Taekwondo Club when I was in JC. Currently, I am in SMU Squash Club and BP Mentoring.
My first motivation is that this is a short project so I am determined to give my best for it until the end! My aim is to maximize my experience in S.Korea during those few days.
Because like Singapore, it is a vibrant city where people enjoy a high quality of life.
Also, I like the Korean culture - the people are respectful, they have a rich historical culture and the weather will be good:)
Currently, I am very interested in the security operations in technological companies like SamSung!
Also, I am inspired by start-ups companies like
1. Mobile and Web Applications (just because I had background in it!) 2. Education (and services) 3. Food Industry (Do you know? Food delivery is very common in S. Korea. Unlike in Singapore where everything is within a ten-minutes walk to the nearest shopping center, the late night snacks in Korea may be a 10-20 minutes drive from the office/home. So there is a great potential in this area! I'm thinking of a business model like FoodPanda.)
One day after a hot and tiring squash training, my friends and I were talking about the lack of vending machines near the squash courts. Someone mentioned she craved for bubble tea. Another talked about how there was a recent spike in vending machines around school ("Did you check out the new sandwich machine? So cool!") So as we chatted along, we thought of a simple business plan: A vending machine that produces bubble tea milk. Catered to SMU students!
The above scenario did actually happen, although the thought remained just an idea. But I thought, since everything is automated now, wouldn't it be profitable for us to start a vending machine company that provides easily perishable food that people always thought they have to buy from a physical shop?
I have never been to S.Korea. Not even close:(
However, I have a basic literacy level in Hangul - Korean Language.
