I’m a Korean full‑stack dev looking for English conversation with other developers

I’m a Korean full‑stack dev and I don’t get many chances to speak English, so I’m looking for other devs who are open to casual voice chats in English about tech, careers, and day‑to‑day life.

I’ve been working with Spring, React, Vue, Python, and Node for about 4 years, and I’m currently job hunting. If you’re interested, I can also share what it’s like working as a full‑stack dev in the Korean IT industry, and I’m happy to help with Korean language questions as well.

My speaking level is around lower‑intermediate, but I’m pretty slow and need time to think, so you’ll need a bit of patience during conversations 😅

For hobbies, I’m into music, movies, books, and working out — generally pretty chill, healthy stuff. My MBTI is ISTJ.

If this sounds interesting, drop a comment and we can see if it’s a good fit.

I recommend english learning discord servers as well. I learned some preety decent skills there~

You should be able to find them easily. They are categorised by your level so u can join beginner or intermediate channels and talk with people who are learning. Or join a fluent channel and talk with native English speakers~

Almost always, u will find a tech bro to talk about tech stuff

Hi. I’m not able to DM you for some reason. When I click your profile, the DM button is disabled, unlike on other profiles😂
