He has a background in software engineering, works as an investor, and enjoys basketball and gaming.

Jun, a native Korean in his 30s, was born in Daegu, where he also spent his childhood years. After moving to Seoul for college, he went to the US (Boston) for grad school, but returned to Seoul after and has lived there ever since.
