hi.

i live in south korea and write (hopefully) useful guides. from daily tasks to the more unusual experiences, heartslice is not only about living and working in korea; politics, feminism, language, and our unfortunate realities pepper the objective information (and subjective observations) sprawled throughout the site. my experiences aren’t unique. i hope you can relate and find at least some of the information here useful.

enjoy.
