My TED Story

I've been a fan of TED since 2010. I was thrilled by this simply amazing platform for spreading ideas. Then I met TEDxKAIST; a few brave soles who were driven by a passion for TED. Over the next year, we worked toward a few more projects, including a streaming event in July 2011, collaboration with other local TEDx teams, TEDxKAISTSalon in November 2011 and TEDxKAISTChange in April 2012. I'm blessed to meet this community with interdisciplinary people who are passionate about understanding countless issues from various perspectives. And I found out, recently in TEDxSummit(April 2012), that TEDx organizers are prone to being full of inspiring people and are characterized by voluntarily joining together to change the world. I'm excited to imagine how great the future is going to be with these people.
