Being a third-culture Korean kid growing up in the Western world, Tae-Young had a strange time navigating through cultural affiliation. Inspired by a mix of American/Japanese media, Tae-Young create stories that people can connect with to help them feel less alone through their characters. "Create art just to create art. Don't follow whatever’s trendy or be motivated by money. Creating what you love the most is so much more rewarding and fulfilling."
