Lee Yoori

"Yoori, don't forget your deadline, submit it in the evening. We have to publish this month magazines by tonight." Mrs Youn yell from her office. 

"Don't worry Mrs Youn, I'm on it."

My name is Lee Yoori. As a senior writer in one of the top entertainment magazines in Korea, meeting my deadline was one of my biggest fear. It's not easy to write a good, interesting and different stories every month. But I'm glad that my segment was one of the most like. I'm always struggling to write but I love my job. 

It's half past 12 in the afternoon. I'm going out for my break. I bring out my laptop and all the necessary things inside my bag and go to the nearest cafe. I ordered my favorite caramel latte and chicken sandwiches for a take away. I'm going somewhere to eat today. Yes... Hongdae, famous for its youthful ambience, unique cafes, dance clubs, fashion outlets and busking. I always go there to relieve stress.

The atmosphere in Hongdae makes me feel calm even though the situation there is quite busy. But I really love music and I like to sing, sometimes I will join the young people who are busking there. I always do that when I want to get rid of stress and the satisfaction I feel after that was indescribable feeling. 

After finished my meals, I call Mrs Youn to inform her that I'm not going back to the office again and I will just email her my works. I'm doing my final check on my stories, spelling, grammar and every details. After I satisfied, I sent my works via email to Mrs Youn. 

I managed to sing a couple of songs before I went for a walk around the street looking for ideas and inspiration on what to write for my segment next month. I hope people will like what I have written in my segment this month. I just have to wait and see the feedback from readers later. photo
