Trade and sales involve understanding the rapidly changing trends of the global market and providing products that meet the demands and purchasing power of the target audience. I aim to identify and analyze these trends, focusing on the FTA status and social environmental factors of the target markets to discover overseas consumers and provide differentiated products that meet their specific needs.

The reason I applied for positions abroad is that I have always wanted to experience living overseas and broaden my perspective through diverse experiences while directly engaging in the trade field. After graduating, I worked in the Democratic Republic of Congo and found great satisfaction in living abroad while discovering my aptitude for trade-related tasks. This experience solidified my desire to continue working in the trade industry.

After resigning, I traveled solo for about ten months, visiting approximately 40 countries, which deepened my understanding of national strength. I witnessed firsthand the recognition and influence of Korea in various countries, realizing the growing power of our nation. I believe that promoting Korea globally is a true act of patriotism, and I am passionate about supporting the global expansion of Korean SMEs.

Currently, I am employed at STX Singapore, where I am committed to contributing to national interests beyond trade. I am determined to play a role that genuinely benefits our country. I look forward to supporting KOTRA's mission and aiding Korean SMEs in achieving their global business goals.
