Keonho has grown the most in the process of preparing discussions, exchanging views, and reflecting on them. Keonho relishes the feeling of growing up ““together”“, the experience of developing ideas ““together”“, and putting them into practice ““together”“.

There are lots of great people and teams, pushing to make a difference all around the world. My heart always pounds when I see teams like that.

I witnessed the “.com Bubble” right after joining college and my interests shifted towards business rather than school. This naturally led to dropping out which allowed me to work in the tech industry for over 20 years.  During this time, I was fortunate enough to experience the acquisition of Wingbus by Naver as a founding member, and take the product lead position at an e-commerce company called “Ticket Monster” where I could participate in the process of building the system from scratch.

With bigger aspirations, I founded a platform called Blind that allows people to talk about their lives without any constraints. The platform is currently in business in Korea and the US, but we plan to scale globally in the near future.

All dreams are special and every single one of them must be respected. The road to your dreams may be rough, lonely and may even seem impossible to achieve at times. But, with colleagues who share the same dreams and the support of people around you, you will be one step closer.

I am not a professional investor but as someone who has experienced hardship on a similar journey, I feel confident of understanding those who are chasing their dreams. As I joined Dunamu & Partners, I expect to support these entrepreneurs in a more systematic way. I’m really pleased by joining Dunamu & Partners, and also am very excited about what I can contribute to diverse adventures of different teams.

I would like to assist companies which are aiming to go global, especially in the US, as a friend, a companion or a comrade as I myself have experienced similar paths in the past, present, and even in the future.
