What inspired you to become a fashion designer?

I began my career at a Japanese fashion company after graduating from university. After returning to Korea, I launched my own couture brand, and those experiences inspired me to continue creating fashion that combines craftsmanship with meaningful stories. 

How would you describe your design style?

Blue Tamburin blends classical elegance with contemporary fashion while expressing social values. I design for people who want to express themselves with confidence through beautiful, distinctive clothing.

What can people expect from your latest collection?

Commanding Elegance reinterprets the military officer as a symbol of courage, responsibility, and leadership. Rather than focusing on uniforms themselves, the collection celebrates people who lead with integrity and purpose.

Why did you choose “Against Every Discrimination” as Blue Tamburin’s philosophy?

Blue Tamburin began with one question: "What if we add a social message to fashion?" Our goal is to encourage people to embrace diversity, respect differences, and express themselves freely through fashion.

Why did you create the Girls’ Dreams(BLTAMENTRE) project?

I wanted to give young designers the opportunity to share their own ideas with the world. Through mentoring and fashion entrepreneurship, the project helps the next generation transform meaningful social messages into real fashion collections.
