SNU Spotlight Timothy Song




















Name: Timothy Song
Age: 23
Current Location: Boston, Massachusetts USA
ISI Year: 2009



I had the privilege to interview my fellow 2009 SNU ISI studly classmate Timothy Song. Tim is currently a consultant and an aspiring Mixed Martial Arts fighter. Keep your eyes and ears open because Tim might be coming out on a Pay Per View near you!  Check out the few questions I asked him...


PL: What was the best memory of your stay in Korea?

TS: The last night of the program we went out partying in our favorite spot in Hong Dae, JunCo.  We ate a lot, drank a lot, and just hung out with the same crew that we became very close to during the trip.  Lots of talking and laughing.  After JunCo, we all headed over to Ho Bar, which was a spot we found on our first night in Seoul.  We had a great time, hanging out, wearing bunny ears, playing truth or dare like little kids.  Finally, after that, we left and ate Ssang Gyup Sal at 4am with everyone to end the night.  Just a great great way to end an excellent trip.

PL: What are you doing now and how did you get into it?  Any future career plans and dreams?

TS: Consulting, Website Maintenance, got the job through networking through my grandfather and other past internships.  Future career plans? Nothing specific yet, but I hope to make lots of money! (Who doesn't?) I think happiness is priceless so I'm going to try to find a career that makes me happy as well as makes me money.

PL: Any interesting talents, weird habits, funny facts about yourself?

TS: Started doing MMA 2 years ago.  4-0 as a fighter.  Last fight was a 0:37 knockout!

PL: Any words for potential students who are contemplating SNU ISI?
 
TS: Advice? Make sure they take advantage of being in one of the coolest cities/countries in the world! Live a little!!! Study (not) and have fun! Do everything Seoul has to offer 

PL: Any words of wisdom or anything else you would like to share or recommend to fellow ISI'ers?

TS: If you're ever in Boston, check out www.madfreetime.com/blog and you can find lots of cool stuff to do!!!







Thank you once again Tim! I know it might be a little awkward, but if you want to get to know Tim more, feel free to contact him directly though FB.  That's what this ISI network is all about.


If you feel like you are "interesting" enough, supporting a cause/awareness, etc.  and would like to be recognized on The Spotlight or want to recommend someone, please message me.  I also want to hear your recommendations, suggestions (such as questions to be asked), and anything else you would like to see on this page.

-PEACE!
