“Start-ups start with solving the inconvenience of everyday life. From psychology, I was able to learn what people are uncomfortable with and how to think in terms of consumers.”

Investigation begins with an understanding of a person's behavior. There is nothing irrelevant from what can be learned from Psychology.

Creativity is one of the hypothesis. "If you make it like this, it will react like this.“ Creators need to elaborate hypotheses. The design needs to be structured. So, you have to pick up meaningful results. I learned all these competencies from the Department of Psychology at Korea University.

Curiosity during my undergraduate and graduate courses in cognitive processing that arose between the stimulus and reaction has led to my interest in the device user experience (UX).

“In a situation where At-home work is increasing, would it be possible to increase the sense of belonging to the group and build a trusting relationship between the team leader and team members? In the process of solving problems related to “people,” in these situations, basics in psychology seems to aid in producing better results by focusing on the “interest in people and the scientific approach.”

The interest in people's minds and behaviors through psychology and the ‘psychological’ worldview that can interpret them is a great help not only for understanding and finding solutions to customer problems, but also for the overall implementation of those solutions within the organization.

I wanted to systemically help people through practical meetings, not books, and I was able to have such experiences in advance through practice at the Korea University Student Counseling Institute.

The undergraduate course instilled a dream of becoming a clinical psychologist who understands and changes the human mind. In the master's course, knowledge and practice in clinical psychology were instilled through clinical training, field experience as a clinical psychology expert, and Ph.D. Through my education and research activities, my dream of becoming a clinical psychologist has been fulfilled. The belief in human growth potential, professional competence and ethical awareness, and a sense of responsibility for our society, became an important foundation for me to work as a clinical psychologist at the central institution of national mental health.

Currently, I am in charge of non-clinical animal behavior experiments for the development of new drugs, and studying psychology seems to be the basis for developing the ability to analyze the “behavior” of humans and animals in depth.
