    Hey, I am QinS-eoul

    2014: "Hello, I am Quỳnh in Seoul" - 2024: "Hello, I am QinS-eoul." I am officially writing this heartfelt letter to you, along with an important announcement. For the past 10 years, you have affectionately called me by the pen name Quỳnh in Seoul, "the torchbearer for studying abroad in South Korea." I am the author of six books, two of which are best-sellers. As the blogger Quỳnh in Seoul, I have spent eight years studying and living in South Korea. These have been 10 wonderful years for me. I want to contribute even more; I want to use all of myself to continue moving forward, to give you back the trust and support you have shown me over the years. Starting today, I am QinS-eoul. From now on, this will be how I introduce myself to you. “QinS” with a small hyphen, eoul. Eoul comes from the word eoullida (어울리다), meaning harmony. Q and S in harmony. Within me is Love. I love countries, people, languages, stories, and cultures. I cherish the ideals and the shadows that life has taught me. I want to become a Cultural Author, pouring all of this into my writing to build bridges connecting us all. I want Vietnam and South Korea, which I love, to come closer together. I want to take every experience from every country I visit, wrap them into a gift of words, and lay another brick so that you can love this wonderful Life and World even more. I promise that I will devote my whole life to making this happen. Hello everyone, I am QinS-eoul.

    Author QinS is a guest at the workshop "BOJAGI - THE ART OF KOREAN GIFT WRAPPING."

    Author QinS shares cultural stories in the workshop about Bojagi (The Art of Korean Gift Wrapping): “Bojagi (the character Bo in 褓) Koreans believe that carefully wrapping an object and presenting it is a way of conveying good fortune, luck, and valuable items to the recipient. Bojagi is an ancient craft that celebrates the skill of Korean women and the ability to utilize all materials at hand without wasting anything. It can also serve as a form of engagement gift or dowry, making it a means of expressing affection. Koreans place great importance on rituals, both in everyday life and in unspoken sentiments that are expressed through actions or other subtleties. Gifts are given, and even the way they are wrapped conveys wishes, hopes, and a measure of balance and harmony in a relationship.”
