I was born before one year of the Apollo 11 missoin. I started computer programming in 1983 with BASIC on 8bit machine. I have become interested in languages both human and computer languages. I specialized in physics at the university in 1987. I have studied several human languages like English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, Chinese and Latin in my college days. But I cannot speak fluently any of them :) Besides, I also have studied several programming languages like Assembly, Pascal, C, C++, BASIC, Prolog, FORTRAN, COBOL, Ada, Modula, Smalltalk etc during my college life. I found a job at a small company called HANGANG Systems after graduation. Since then going through some companies I learned by experience various environments: Windows, Linux, SUN, HP, DEC, Oracle, Informix, SQL, Motif, Apache, PHP, ASP, Java etc. I took part in Korean broadcasting satellite control system coworked with ETRI and a company Teltek located at Vancouver,Canada in 1995. I developed the Ozone Monitoring and Alarming System for Korean Ministry of Environment in 1998. I met Ruby accidentally at computer magazine in 2000. I made some solutions with Ruby in company such as real-time meta search engine, doname name whois query, calendar system conversion, web auto scripting. I contribued for Ruby community with a little extension libraries like wxRuby, PCRE, win32-popen etc. Now I'm working at a small company called INDI Systems, Inc.
