As the designer behind G-Dragon’s Vogue Taiwan cover, I incorporated his initials and BIGBANG’s signature pink to highlight his individuality. The design blends minimalist style with impactful typography, reflecting his essence through a fashion lens. #VogueTaiwan#GDragon
Thankfully, everything came together smoothly and without incident, and the event was successfully completed just one day before I departed on annual leave for an overseas trip. I am deeply grateful to all the speakers and staff involved, as well as to everyone who joined us.
Last Tuesday, we hosted our first workshop at Vogue Taiwan. We were honored to welcome a room full of fashion brand owners and creatives, and to feature panels led by celebrity stylist Yougun Lee, Condé Nast Taiwan Design Director Jeter Chou, and fashion designers Claudia Wang and Allen Ko.
Surreal to step back into a space I thought I had walked away from over a decade ago. Grateful for the incredible speakers and proud of my team for putting together such a refined and thoughtful event in such a short amount of time.

Fashion tech is evolving faster than ever since I first entered it back in 2012. With the rapid acceleration of AI and new players emerging every day, we’ve had to move quickly, adapt constantly, and keep building with conviction.
I couldn’t be prouder of my team. We’ve been through every kind of challenge, but after experimenting and learning relentlessly, we’ve set a new direction to set the standard of how the fashion industry will adopt AI moving forward. We’re keeping the details in stealth for now, but I can confidently say this marks the next era of fashion.
Thank you to everyone who has believed in us: our angels, our advisors, our friends and family. We’re moving full speed into what’s to come next. 💫
What if a top K-pop artist released their own typeface? More than a font, it’s a statement on how Korean aesthetics evolve into global design. BLACKPINK’s “ZEN SERIF” redefines K-pop’s visual language of cultural hybridity.

Pro-freedom hackers leaked a shocking $34.9M defense contract. I've verified it's credible.
The details are alarming. 🧵⤵️
Our July cover unintentionally captures “Taiwanese Sensibility”, a lazy summer mood of cicadas, alley breeze, and someone daydreaming on a scooter. With @kentaro_s_711 and handwriting cover line, it’s all in the feeling. #VogueTaiwan#坂口健太郎#대만감성
We’ve had many insightful exchanges, and I’ve always admired her sharpness and dedication as a founder.
Her courage to speak out today deserves deep respect.
This isn’t just personal, it’s systemic.
No one should have to justify boundaries to be taken seriously.
An investor once pressured me to meet him at a hotel at night.
I said no. I asked if we could meet during the day, at a coffee shop or in an office.
He replied: “If you’re serious about this, you’ll meet me on my terms.”
That’s just one of many moments I’ve stayed silent about—until now.
As a female founder, I’ve faced harassment and dismissiveness more times than I can count.
I’m not sharing this to portray myself as a victim. I’m sharing it because silence only protects the behavior. And because I know I’m not alone.
Since starting my company, I’ve experienced:
- An investor who texted me late at night while drinking, saying he missed me—and asking whether I “show enough skin” in my party outfits, after a single coffee meeting about business.
- One who asked, “How many white guys have you been with for your English to be this good?”
- Another who interrupted me mid-sentence while I was sharing an important partnership update to say, “Bring your pretty friends to my island next time.”
- One who told me, “You’re too pretty to be a founder. Just be an influencer,” and then showed me photos of women online wearing very little, suggesting I could do the same.
- An investor who said he kept forgetting I could code—because I “don’t look like someone who can.”
- A founder I distanced myself from after multiple uncomfortable invites, who recorded and took photos of me without my consent. When I got upset, he said I was missing out on funding opportunities because he could’ve introduced me to investors.
- Another founder who made an unwanted sexual advance the first time we met. When I ignored his repeated messages, he told me he hoped my startup would fail.
These aren’t just awkward moments. They’re degrading. They’re exhausting. And to say they haven’t taken an emotional toll would be a lie.
I don’t want to be objectified, or reduced to an image these men create in their minds.
I hope we build a culture where this behavior is no longer tolerated. One where female founders don’t have to brace themselves before every investor meeting. One where we feel safe at work, at networking events, and in every room where decisions are made. One where competence isn’t overshadowed by appearance. One where boundaries are respected—without needing to be justified.
To be clear: These experiences do not reflect the majority. I’ve been fortunate to meet far more incredible, kind, and principled investors and founders than not.
But until this kind of behavior ends, stories like mine need to be heard too.
Due to some technical issues, I finally had the opportunity to visit the Faraway Kingdom, there are indeed some situations that can only be understood and decided upon when you’re physically present.
Akira Toriyama, the god of our generation. Many readers have imitated his art style. We thank him for bringing us joy with the Dragon Ball universe. My condolences, with only junior high imitations to offer.
