		□ 인사말
		Since recently joining Jisung Horizon, I have had the opportunity to focus on diverse corporate matters, asset finance, arbitration, and international practice, which have been rewarding not only because the work is challenging but it oftentimes involves the application of more subtle or practical aspects of law to find a legal solution. Reward also comes from working in a collegial environment where there is camaraderie and respect between the lawyers and staff. I appreciate the firm for its professionalism and high standards of practice. My experience so far has allowed me to gain exposure to both Korean corporate culture and several areas of the law. I have not been disappointed. I can safely say that Jisung Horizon lives up to the high expectations I had for it. The partners and associates are, of course, talented and devoted to their clients, but they are equally devoted to the firm, its staff, and each other. I welcome the chance to build what I foresee to be lasting relationships with people who I can be proud to call mentors, colleagues, and friends. When I am not drafting legal memos, I like to watch movies, play chess, travel to exotic countries and hunt for hole-in-the-wall restaurants to taste different types of Korean food.
