๐ What Do You Do After Work?
K-Office Life #GodSaeng #YogaAndArt
Everyone thinks Koreans are workaholics, right? Well, it's true. We work 9-to-6 (and often later), but the real "second life" begins after the sun goes down.
While some enjoy the famous "Hoesik" (ํ์ - company dinners), I personally find them a bit draining. To me, social drinking with colleagues feels like an extension of work. I prefer keeping a healthy boundary between my professional and private life.

๐ง♀️ Why I Chose Yoga over the "Running Craze"
Right now, Korea is obsessed with running! Every marathon is fully booked within minutes. But as someone with a sun allergy, outdoor sports aren't for me.
Instead, I fell in love with Yoga (์๊ฐ). Last summer, I went to Bali for a yoga retreat and tried various one-day classes. It was a life-changing experience! While Pilates is more common in Korea these days, I find Yoga much more beneficial for my emotional and mental well-being. I plan to do it for the rest of my life.

๐จ 5 Years of Focus: Portrait Drawing
And here’s my little secret: I’ve been practicing Portrait Drawing (์ธ๋ฌผํ) for 5 years.
I usually get distracted easily, but drawing is the only thing that keeps me focused for over 3 hours. I love capturing the delicate features of actors like Timothรฉe Chalamet and Cillian Murphy. These are my favorite pieces I’ve worked on during my meditation-like drawing sessions.

๐ช My Big Challenge: The First Pull-up
During my lunch break, I visit the company gym to practice Pull-ups (ํฑ๊ฑธ์ด).
To be honest, I can't even do a single one yet! My goal for this year is to succeed in doing just one proper pull-up. Currently, I’m practicing with resistance bands every day. Do you think I can make it by the end of the year? Wish me luck!
