Architecture as Social Act
During 5 years of studying architecture in university, architectural practices I have been through was mainly about considering in the context of our society. Architecture is highly related to our social life. It was developed for humans, by humans under various social interactions and circumstances. Often, we think architecture as result of expressed ideology(as we bind similar appearances from similar timeline and call it a ’style’) or a built environment just to meet the needs of mankind. While it is affected by people through reflecting their society and satisfying its needs, architecture itself can affect society and its members. Letting them experience new ideas to make them feel or rethink about what they have overlooked before.
Considering this bidirectional interaction, I naturally accepted architecture as ‘social action’. I’m interested in where architecture plays a role and impacts human society. Most of my works are focused on issues to be considered in our society (especially in South Korea) and propose different perspectives and different possibilities through architectural design to solve them.
‘COMPOSITION’ is collection of selected works containing my thoughts and designs about architectural actions toward different topics in our society.

Education
What is education? Is there a right answer to education? What goals do we want to achieve through education? Perhaps we can say what we think is the most effective educational method and what we want to achieve through education. ‘I want to memorize all the textbooks and class notes to get good grades and go to a top-tier university.’ ‘I want to learn the overall process and leadership of work while taking the lead of the project.’ ‘I want to quickly acquire relevant technical knowledge online and obtain a certificate for quick employment.’ ...
The most important point here is that “we all give different answers” to ideal education based on our respective backgrounds and knowledge. Just as we have clothes that fit our body shape and style, we have educational methods and goals that suit for each person. The goal of this graduation project was to propose a new high school for new education curriculum in South Korea.

Change of Education
Curriculum in South Korea
Starting from 2025, all high schools in South Korea will be implementing the ‘High School Credit System.’ This system will allow students to select and enroll in a field of interest before the start of the semester. By giving students control over their curriculum, the high school credit system aims to increase their motivation and voluntary participation in class. Its goal is to help students take responsibility for their choices, alleviate concerns about their future careers, and choose an education that suits them best.

Schools should be able to create opportunities for students to experience various educational environments, demonstrate their potential, or understand what they want to do and what learning methods suit them. The school’s common spaces can be like a commercial facility, and filled with elements that can stimulate students’ interest.

Commercial Analysis of Highschool Spaces
One large horizontal axis connecting the two entrances of the school was designated as the main space of the school, and the spaces attached to this space were planned to commercially interpret the existing school space or take on the nature of the space found in the commercial spaces.
In this space, I imagined students and teachers exchanging information about career paths, curriculums, and opened courses.

Characteristics of School Common Spaces
The common space of the school is the living area of students. It should be a space that can satisfy students’ various activities, from self-study to counseling. Classrooms are arranged around an open space in which various support spaces are combined in this living space.

Lost Communality
The development of Korean apartment housing is facing toward loss of its communality. More and more apartments are developed in private and luxurious strategies to attract investors. We no longer see ourselves as connected with our neighbors compared to the past. In severe cases, people doesn’t even know who lives next to them.
This studio project seeks architectural strategies that can recover our communality by CONNECTING people within a NEXUS of diverse programs.
Social Housing

Social Overhead Capital
Based on A Real Project of Seoul
The Seoul Metropolitan Government plans to establish a library as a complex cultural space where local residents meet, discuss, and enjoy cultural content through books. They plan to supply a library that provides startup and employment-related services to young people, centering on the southwestern part of Seoul, where the youth population ratio is relatively high. However, this project became a scheme to build social housing and a city library on one site.

Program Analysis
Public Community
Residents, locals, and outsiders meet in various spaces of the building and connect with each other through programs to form a community. A community is not simply formed by frequent encounters. The formation of a community will be stronger when a common denominator such as a common goal, interest, or background exists.
< Creating Communality >
Based on the research contents on the program and users, core program space with a high frequency of use was mixed in the mass of semi-pubilc. The formation of a community was promoted through encounters with the movement of users using it.
Public and private spaces were combined into one large building, pursuing a complex system.

Separation and Connection
This project aims to distinguish between ‘public’ and ‘private’ and create a community that can be formed within one another. Rather than seeing programs of different characteristics arranged separately, the building aims for a form in which programs are intricately intertwined according to the image of the complexity.
The building will mainly provide homes for residents living in social housings, neighborhood living facilities for locals, and a library that includes startup-business information for outsiders. The common need of the users will be SOC(Social Overhead Capital), and the possibility of connecting with others will arise through the corresponding programs.
The Atrium
For pleasant residential environment, the atrium formed in the residential space is widely planned to become a space where communication can take place, not a corridor as a means of transportation.

Creating Soundscape
Cheonggyecheon Stream
Seoul, where the Past and the Present Coexist
One of Seoul’s characteristics is that modern development was made on top of the city’s structure in the past. Therefore, Seoul has a unique urban space where traditional and contemporary cultures coexist. In a modern society that continues to develop and change, how to deal with the past has become very important, and architecture also has various ways to respond to the traditions of the past.
The land is located between the place where the bell that rang in the city of ‘Hanyang’ , Seoul’s past name, and Cheonggye Stream, an artificial natural environment newly developed in the 2000s. In this place, where the bell is still ringing, I created a physical environment that uses sound to create a soundscape by accepting the visual image and function of the tradition.

In the part in contact with tradition, walls were used to emphasize the sound experience in external space to block the view and to achieve the recognition of space and activity through sound. The only visual connection is made by lowering the height of the wall in the direction of Jong-Gak at the entrance.
In the part in contact with the new, a building was designed to allow the sound of people’s activities in the outdoor space to enter the building while watching the natural scenery of Cheonggyecheon Stream.

Abandoned Urban Space
This project aims to restore the value of urban spaces that have been forgotten and abandoned by people using the latest technology that fits the context and image of the city. In the meantime, the huge structure of the city becomes a proscenium and welcomes the audience.
Infrastructures have always been a crucial part of urban society for people’s convenient lives. However, its physical characteristics could cause a disconnection between space and the users. People visit the space less and less, and eventually, they are abandoned. These spaces serve the least preferred function and this is what I call ‘Leftover spaces’.
What is Regeneration?
Urban regeneration is when a space forgotten or abandoned by people is transformed into a place of new value, revitalizing the local community and inducing communication. The site is intended to lead to new forms of communication by exposing dynamic program activities due to the noisy surrounding urban environment.
Overcoming Limitation of Space
To effectively utilize the narrow space under the overpass, I wanted to create an urban space that expresses various contents based on the new techonology that the 21st century is paying attention to.

Regained Past of Apgujeong
The Apgujeong Rodeo area used to be the hub of Korean consumer culture where many young people would gather to experience high-end culture. However, in the mid-2000s, gentrification led to a decline in the area and the number of visitors decreased over time. Currently, these areas are experiencing a revival, particularly among young people, and are becoming centers of new trends and cultures, including food, art, and music.
This project aims to construct a studio and gallery on a small piece of land in Apgujeong, providing artists with a platform to showcase their unique artistic expressions.

Story of Well
Before water supply facilities were distributed in Korean society, traditional villages were formed around four to five wells. The well was the most crucial infrastructure for life because it provided water - the most essential need of the residents. The villagers naturally congregated around the wells, and the village community was formed. We believed that it was water that brought the initial connection between people, and the well was a means of providing it. So, could a residential complex act like a well that provides people’s needs while also fostering a sense of community?
The declining birth rate has become a major concern in South Korean society. Numerous young couples are hesitant to have children, and the primary reasons are linked to the challenges that parents with children face, including financial constraints and job instability. Co-parenting is a way to ease the burden of parenting on parents, and community formation is an essential factor.
Well-Community for ‘Parenting’
It is parents who do parenting. We believe that the best way to support parenting is to provide resources and programs that cater to the needs of parents rather than just children. Our complex offers programs that aim to meet the needs of parents and help them in their daily lives.
<Shape of Forming Community>
We think that community among residents can established as the ‘well’ gathers people, and the ‘madang’ plays a central role in activities inside the housing complex. Furthermore, if these several complexes with various themes come together, it will be possible to create a city that can form a strong community.
* ’Madang’ is a unique space in Korea’s traditional residential style, where families can communicate and build relationships with neighbors. It’s similar to a concept of ‘yard’, but serves a wider variety of functions.

Architecture and Naural Disaster
Throughout human history, disasters have been a constant presence. While some disasters may occur suddenly and have an immediate impact on our lives, others can continue to affect us on a daily basis. These large and small disasters occur regularly in our society. Our project focused on a natural disaster known as a heat wave and aimed to express the architectural response to it through the creation of a pavilion.
Providing ‘Inividual Shade’
During heat waves, outdoor activities can be challenging due to the high temperature. People often seek refuge under shade to keep cool. However, what if a portable shade could move with them? This would allow people to continue their outdoor activities more comfortably.
To address this need, the ‘Shadow Station’ was created. It allows people to rent portable shades autonomously, providing a shelter for them from the Sun’s rays.
