Zinezza is a web-based independent zine about the journal of re-experiencing Korean cultures, especially for tablet PC such as iPad. The title ‘zinezza’ is inspired from the Korean word ‘진짜?’ which means real or authentic. This project has started from the COVID-19 lockdown where the editor got a chance to recollect her old memories in Korea. Over 8 years of being an international student in a foreign country, Thailand, led her to view her own country through the eyes of both a local Korean and a foreigner. Many untold stories of authentic Korean culture that are unnoticed by her foreign friends inspired her to share with those who are unable to visit Korea due to the lockdown through this project. Therefore to enhance and introduce the authentic Korean culture by connecting the past and present of the culture regardless of time and location, zinezza is here for you, the interactive bustling e-zine filled with ‘jinjja’ stories of Korea to solve your curiosity.
