What’s your full time job? Cartoonist
Why do you make art books/ zines/ comics?
Ever since I started reading comics when I was 6 years old, I was hooked by comics. I think comics is the most wonderful medium to tell your stories.
Why you think your art book/ zine/ comic is cool:
I love the freedom of creating your own zines and comics, and also collaborating with the people I love. Everyone has different tastes and story to tell, and zine and comics is a fun, casual and creative way to share it with a lot of people.
Advice for aspiring art book makers:
Just do it!
What’s next?
I am currently working on a memoir graphic novel about my immigration experience when I was 14, from Seoul Korea to Huntsville, Alabama.
