Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Ophélie
I live all over the world to write about technology, Korea, and pop culture. I wrote "Why Korea?", a book published in October 2021 about the popularity of Korean culture around the world, and 'Squid Game, the rules to better understand the series' published on April 21. I have collaborated with Le Monde, Le Figaro, Science & Vie, Numerama, Heidi News, Billboard, The Asia Times (...), for the web and paper. I also participated in the creation of K-society magazine for which I write about Korean culture and organize livestreams.
I would like to move towards projects helping media define their digital presence strategy (through UX research, Community management and diversification of revenue streams). I am also learning programming at school 42 to better understand the technical issues.
Passions: South Korea, studies on fan cultures and ham.
