The TED story

In middle school, I started working for the TED community as a Korean translator. I loved how the community was open, supportive, and engaging, which helped me learn a lot. In high school, at Hankuk Academy of Foreign Studies, I hosted a TEDxYouth@HAFS event. In addition, I founded a TED-Ed Club Chapter at my high school. We worked on a project called "Youth Ideas Incubator", supporting younger students to plan and deliver a 5-minute talk in a foreign language. I set up a small scholarship to encourage students who wouldn't have been able to participate in the project otherwise.
