Creature 3: Seriously Upside Down for Triangles

If my brain were the ocean, ideas would be aquatic creatures. When I dive into the sea to fish for ideas, sometimes I might discover whale or yellowtail-grade ideas, but this isn’t a common occurrence. Usually, I only find plankton or seaweed.

unknown but inspirational

  1. I love the “Taste of Life Nowadays” corner in the newsletter, published by Baedal Minjok, which I subscribe to.

Every time I read the diverse food stories told by different invited writers, as someone who’s serious about food, I feel a sense of empathy, pride, and happiness. The story about “Office Worker’s Restaurant Map” suggested by writer Kim Min-cheol, who I (alone) feel a kinship with, resonated with me x10000 !!! It’s a huge chunk of inspiration! Curating an office worker’s restaurant map by workplace would be a huge hit..!

Should I try making one for my workplace, near Yeoksam Station, right away?

  1. It’s truly amazing to take a simple, one-dimensional thought that pops up with a “tang!” and develop it into a groundbreaking idea through various branches. I think Doritos’ campaign is exactly that kind of example. At times like these, I envy people who work for brands that have a ‘physical form’ that can be seen and touched.

  1. How brilliant, how brilliant!

A service that actively helps with “fridge clean-out” (using up leftovers)!!

I should try it with the ambiguous leftover ingredients in my empty fridge…

  1. For me, someone who is truly earnest about giving and receiving inspiration,

content (especially content accompanied by a lot of text) is always an industry and field I want to support. In an era where so many different types of newsletters are pouring out,

it was a moment when I realized once again why people invest in and jump into creating newsletters…

  1. Another personality test…

I got “Easygoing Perfectionist.” It seems somewhat accurate.

Yes, the desire to be recognized is a driving force for growth…

These days, with a growing lack of “recognition,” this test resonates even more ㅠ.ㅠ

  1. Baemin really does marketing well, in every nook and cranny.

Seriously… how much marketing budget do they get per quarter…?ㅠㅠ

We always have our budget cut, and we scrape together every penny we have

to do very poor marketing activities, it’s so unfair, so unfair…

Such events + content + branding for business owners… I’m so envious, so envious…

  1. Daangn Market has apparently opened a local commerce service…

I think it would be great if we could create some kind of partnership with them…!

I believe that if you want to undertake such a project, you can’t do it alone. It requires the manager’s interest, support, and insights, moving together, for me to feel motivated, want to do better, and have a strong will to create something… (This might not be the only right answer, but this is how I’ve worked and achieved results so far)

Ending with another lament… haha.
