My name is Kevin Kim, from South Korea. However, I landed in Canada as an independent immigrant in June 16th, 2001. Now I am attending MFC (Master of Forest Conservation) Program in Faculty of Forestry, University of Toronto. It is a crucial part of my attempt to change my whole career - from journalism to forestry. I am dreaming of living as a bushwhacker.
Although I am not very familiar with a variety of forestry issues yet, my undergraduate background is, the forestry! I studied forestry for four years in Seoul National University. However, it was a fairly long time ago - 1989, when I graduated. I have had a totally different life - journalist - up until recently.
Just before came to Canada, I was a typical dot-commer, who dreams of being an upstart. Hankyung.com was my dream theater, for one year. As you can see it, HanKyung.com was/is a "dot-com company," which has spun off from the Korea Economic Daily, one of the most famous and authorititive economic papers in Korea. I took charge of Planning and Strategic Alliances Team. Before the company, I stayed briefly in DongA.com (pronounced as 'dong-ah-dot-com'), the other dotcom company of Dong-A Ilbo('Ilbo' means 'daily newspaper' in Korean), one of the oldest and largest papers in Korea.
Most of my career, however, was in journalism. I worked and contributed for a variety of media, such as weekly news manazines, monthly magazines, commercial publications, radio and television. I worked as a staff reporter and writer in Sisa Journal and Weekly Dong-A, for about nine years. [My past articles (1) (2) & Gadgets]
When I worked for those weeklies, I mainly wrote on environmental issues and IT, i.e., Information Technology. My coverage was very broad and diverse, from deforestation, ozone layer depletion, air pollution to Bill Gates, Linux, dot-com boom & bust.
It may seem to be weird, but classical music and its related issues were also my responsibilities. I have written numerous articles and reviews about classical music, e.g., reviews of newly released CDs, concerts, recitals, and so forth. Had it not been for my personal fondness for classical music, those works would not have been possible. I also appeared on "FM Live Auditorium" of KBS 1FM Radio as a commentator for the news of the classical music.
I always welcome comments, ideas and suggestions from anyone willing to share them. Please drop me a line any time by e-mail and let me know what's on your mind. (My Resume - PDF)
