Tech & Web Architecture
I have built and launched 8 WordPress websites from the ground up, managing everything from UI/UX design to hosting configuration and domain infrastructure. JiwonNote itself is built on WordPress, and I actively share practical workflows and tech guides within the Business category.
I have experience building a prototype for a health management app using Google Antigravity, and I use AI across various aspects of my daily life and work. While I used to use ChatGPT a lot, I now mainly use Gemini.

Travel & Exploration
I regularly travel to various cities both in Korea and abroad. In 2025, I went on 10 trips, and because I love traveling, I go whenever I have time. Recently, I visited Ganghwado and Kitakyushu, Japan.
I have traveled abroad more than 10 times, visiting Japan and Vietnam so far. I travel to Japan most often, sharing travel logs and travel tips in the Travel category of JiwonNote. In addition, I have written more than 10 travel guide posts packed with rich travel information about specific cities.
I don’t prefer purely consumptive travel; I am very interested in making travel more productive and creating rich travel experiences.

Food & Gastronomy
Food, along with travel, is one of the things I love most. I really enjoy experiencing and exploring new food and drinks that I have never tasted before. Recently, I tried whale sushi and fugu (pufferfish) sashimi, and both were very successful.
When I visited Japan, I had an interesting experience comparing different strawberry varieties across several regions. I learned that strawberry sweetness has depth, and the richness of aroma varies greatly depending on the cultivar.
Visiting various restaurants and cafes to evaluate their concept, taste, and service is a long-standing hobby of mine. Just like travel, I believe that how you enjoy food can contribute greatly to self-development. In the Travel category of JiwonNote, I share reviews and information about the restaurants I visit, along with stories about food and drinks.

Fitness
I have been working out for 8 years, mainly focusing on strength training for muscle growth. I also run 1–2 times a week and occasionally participate in 10k marathons.
I periodically combine cutting phases with bulking and running, and I have successfully completed diets more than 5 times. My maximum weight loss was 19 kg, and I usually lose around 10 kg. You can find more details in my diet review posts.
To stay healthy, I have taken and continue to take various supplements, including magnesium, vitamins, and theanine. Drawing from these experiences, I share stories covering everything from fitness to overall health and nutrition.

Self-Improvement
I am very interested in self-improvement, and for the past 10 years, I have been reading various books and putting what I learn into practice. From working out to marketing, note-taking, and reading, I strive to grow across diverse areas.
The most important thing in self-improvement is taking action. Here, I share practical experiences and helpful information to encourage real action.
One of my current interests is learning Japanese. I am lightly studying through Duolingo and providing helpful tips through posts like my Duolingo Japanese review.
