Born and raised in Jungbang-dong of Seogwipo City on Jeju Island. He transformed the public bathhouse built in 1971, inherited from his grandparents, into a multi-cultural space called Lavarr. The space consists of a café on the 1st floor, a gallery and a concept shop on the 2nd floor, and a wine bar and rooftop on the 3rd floor. 'Lavarr' is a combination of 'lavare,' meaning to purify in Latin, and 'var,' meaning sea in Jeju language. Given that water is the primary symbol of this place, its meaning is akin to "sea of healing." Because the public bathhouse in the past was a place to cleanse the body, he reinterpreted the current space as a place to cleanse the mind. Here, where the past and present intersect, he engages in various tasks ranging from running the café and tending to the garden to planning exhibitions, performances, and branding. He hopes that someday this place will be recognized as a creative space for artists and a sanctuary for locals and tourists alike.
