Kakao Map offers a comprehensive navigation platform widely used across Korea. In this project, I focused on improving the subway experience by introducing a real-time, visual train tracking system—helping users better plan transfers, reduce uncertainty, and navigate the metro system with confidence.

This project aims to transform Kakao Maps into a hyperlocal platform that empowers small businesses and fosters stronger community connections.

TLDR; The power of generative AI in unlocking the subconscious. Imagine a "Dream Visualizer" app that uses AI to transform your written thoughts, dreams, and aspirations into vivid videos. Inspired by Zhuangzi's Butterfly Dream, this tool helps you explore the blurry lines between your conscious self and your subconscious desires. By visualizing different versions of "you," the project aids in self-discovery, personal growth, and understanding the fluid nature of identity. It's like having a digital dream journal that comes to life, helping you uncover your true self by taking intangible thoughts, dreams, and aspirations and transforming them into vivid visuals.

Learning human anatomy is challenging for students due to its complex terminology and the intricate relationships between nerves, muscles, and bones. Studies have shown that students particularly struggle with visualizing these anatomical structures. To address this challenge, we focused on enhancing the learning experience of nerve innervation in the human arm through Virtual Reality (VR), providing students with an immersive and interactive way to visualize and understand the complex anatomical structures.
