While working for Hankyoreh, I was in charge of the weekly education section. This story is a long analysis on Korean Essay Test for University. First full-page story for me yet the impact was quite big. Received many supporting mails by students, teachers and parents. Was a big motivation for me to challenge.

As a representative of Korean young journalist, I was one of the participants in Foreign Correspondent Program by Finnish Foreign Affairs. The basic idea of the program was to invite a young journalist from 21 different countries and gather them in Helsinki for 3 weeks to let them see how Finland works. In the meantime all participants had to write at least one post for a given topic. And this is my work.
