Let me introduce what I can do in detail!
Good design comes from good planning. Just like a phrase "BACK TO BASIC", I put a great importance on planning.
I can do poster, logo, banner, detail page, promotion page in accord with the atmosphere which the company pursues/purpose of making.
I always try to think as users, design interfaces considering usability. I also pursue easy-to-use design which has the importance between each information.
I can materialize flexible webpages which can be applied to device size, by organizing every element's size with percent.
I can organize webpage's overall layout based on DOM structure. I also can make HTML document using DOM, apply CSS style, and active implementation using Javascript/jQuery.
Prior to full-out design, I can find out existing design's problems with my pixel-perfection and endless curiosity, then suggest alternatives to solve them.

Isn't there what you want above?
I'm pretty fast in learning new things, so do not worry!
Let me introduce my works! Click each unit to check detailed information.
This is a promotional page I created while working at the previous company to advertise the mobile app service. At the time, I prominently featured the newly redesigned app's main screen at the top of the page to spark users' curiosity about the service. The overall color theme was developed using the main colors from the existing app design, following a tone-on-tone color scheme. Additionally, I incorporated the AOS (Animate On Scroll) plugin to add an element of fun to the website.

This is a New Year's greeting card promotion page I designed while working at the previous company. I used an illustration of the black tiger, the animal symbolizing 2022, and personally created and inserted the greeting card designs within the device. The page was structured so that after sending the greeting card, users could also browse related New Year's products and services at once. I added fun animation effects to the buttons using the AOS (Animate On Scroll) plugin and completed all the coding work myself before handing it over to the development team.

Based on the data analyzing process, renewal of the existing website was chosen as the best way to go. I decided to stick with the wide content size, which enables free expression while enabling good usability. The submenus got redesigned, adding a better English to Korean translation, plus minor naming changes. In order to increase the online conversion rates, I proposed exclusive online promotions.

Just like the brand name “Blue moon”, I designed a screen as a moon arising over the clear night sky by arranging the brand logo in the middle of header area. I also used transition property to make the webpage look natural. As main color, I chose purplish Blue of deep tone extracted from current brand logo to create a unified flow in the whole screen. I chose purplish Blue of light tone also extracted from the brand logo to express fresh and cool impression. I made a mild and rich taste of beer using Orange of light grayish tone as point color.

This is main page of Miss Dior perfume which has scroll one page structure. I used "height" function to make the website resize itself, and "mousemove" event to make 2 different petal images move when the mouse moves just like rose petals are floating around. I also made a navigation, so that users can move to each page by clicking each navigation. I added "removeClass" and "addClass" function to navigation which can easily inform users that which page they are in. I added "stop" function in front of "animate" function to get rid of unexecuted events for the website’s usability.

Even though the old website is made as responsive one, it seems too static compared to unique and fun image of the brand. Therefore, I used fonts that can match the charming and cute atmosphere of the brand’s logo itself. I also minimize using many colors to stand out colorful store/product pictures. Hence, I mainly used achromatic colors to make themselves harmonious with pictures used in website, and used Purple which was known as inspirational color. I kept thinking about the brand slogan, “The place filled with surprises” and “Amusing place” and used media query to make the layout change accrording to screen size.

The old Kempinski hotel website looked stuffy because it has too much information in a narrow space. However, in the renewed version of mine, I tried to make full use of the wide space with necessary information for a hotel website. I used Bootstrap for the main slide, and used jQuery UI for the check-in/check-out input boxes. Additionally, I used Swiper slider considering usability for mobile, used media query to make the layout change according to screen size, and tried to properly use display property to make certain area be shown/hidden.

The first purpose of making this mobile web project was making simpler interface with high accessibility considering user experience to make users less tired. The second purpose was making mobile web that can maximize promotion effects for Korean consumers. Through these purposes, the major purpose of making this project was making consumers feel more friendly than competitors, and creating much more revenue of the brand. I maximized usability by using alternative text for the background image, and used vendor prefix for cross browsing.
As a UX/UI designer who designs user experience, I wanted to put my own experience in my portfolio. I chose “soap bubble” which reminds me of my childhood as material for this personal portfolio project, and very when I encountered web design for the first time. I made my web portfolio as scroll one page using jQuery, minimized the size of area with the main color to make my works look better. I made moving between categories easy by using jQuery tab menu, and maximized usability by using alternative text in every image. I used PHP to make others can send me an email and text message, and made two language buttons(KOR, ENG) which can change the website’s language mode. Additionally, I used vendor prefix for cross browsing. As main color, I chose bluish Green which is my favorite color. Because the main color has a high chroma, I used achromatic colors for the rest. I also used media query to make the layout change according to screen size. The contents of “MY WORKS” area is continuously being updated.

This is mobile application design which was conducted as a group of two. The name of the application, SPARKAR is a compound word of "spark" and "car". We made this simple name which can be pronounced easily, so that users can memorize the name for a long time. This application was made to offer location information of electric charging station for EV drivers. For usability, we put the locations of charging station, and the type of charger which is currently available in each station using icons and text. In addition, we put helpful information such as price tables according to charging time, benefits/promotion news of each station. We conceived an idea of offering 1 free charging coupon for drivers if they charge 12 times using SPARKAR to make them use our application.
This is a landing page for introducing 'Yolohitch', which is a mobile application for matching travelling companions. I arranged sensitive pictures all over the screen, because 'trip' reminds people of their memories as a material. I chose purplish Blue of light tone from the current CI to express nattiness. I also used media query to make the layout change according to screen size.

This is a logo I designed for a group to participate in a competition. The group requested that the existing Mint color be retained, so I used the same color. The symbol is a stylized representation of the first consonants of the three Korean characters '권, 찾, 유' in the group name '권리찾기유니온'. The three shapes respectively symbolize 'a hand reaching out to encourage finding rights together', 'each individual seeking their rights', and 'a world where all workers are free from discrimination'. Since the group name is a compound word, I varied the heights of the characters to create a sense of rhythm, taking both readability and aesthetic appeal into account.
