in Hita City. Separate from his translating and interpreting
jobs, he founded the “Watson Plan” and

Han Sungwon
Raised in Seoul, Korea, Sungwon is now a freshman at
APU. He majors in Intelligence Information Studies
and has an interest in foreign languages. Among these,
he holds a particularly strong interest in Japanese,
having studied it since freshman year of high school.
Studying words can also peak one’s appetite for
culture and cuisine. It was from this logic that we
asked Sungwon to report to us on his new attempt to
make konyaku. |
