About
Me

Born in South Korea and growing up in Korea and China,
Se Jin is a filmmaker currently based in Seoul, South Korea. She graduated as a director from the University of Edinburgh and recently got her MPhil degree from the University of Cambridge.

​

In 2022, she was selected for the Rookie Screenwriter programme by Yong Film and participated in the development of a Sci-Fi romance series. In 2024, she worked as a screenwriter for a short-form series.

​

She has always been a daydreamer absorbed in stories. A variety of award-winning short films she wrote and directed explore inner emotions through the enchantment of magical elements – ranging from a heart-warming fairy tale about dementia to a witty narrative of a lonely girl ‘baking’ a new world.

 

She has also worked on various award-winning student short films in different roles ranging from production designer to camera assistant. 

​

She loves animals, including the magical and fantasy ones. As a firm believer of magic, she is still hoping she can encounter the Loch Ness Monster or a unicorn when she visits Scotland!
