About
Hello! I’m HyunSeo. First things first—how do you pronounce my name? It’s “hyuhn seuh.”
Originally from Seoul, I’ve survived the intense summers of Dubai and have now made my way back to New York. I’m currently channeling my creativity into building TikTok Shop in the US.
Before that, I wasn’t exactly “saving lives” through advertising, but
I had the privilege of collaborating with top creatives and clients at BBDO, Ogilvy, and JWT (Wonderman Thompson) across the US, Middle East and Africa. I won several prestigious advertising awards and was recognized as one of The One Club for Creativity’s New Creative Leaders.
