Yoon said he is planning on launching his coaching career in Korea as well. He has been going back and forth between Tokyo and Seoul to make foundations for projects here.

"It has definitely been hard physically and financially since I have to pay for all expenses, like flights. But as you can see, I'm not doing this just to earn money," he said.

As a starter, Yoon is preparing a leadership camp next month for teenagers who are planning to study abroad.

Titled "The Journey," the camp will be held Aug. 13-15 at Dongwon Leaders Academy in Icheon, Gyeonggi Province. Yoon intends to prepare the participants to quickly adapt to unfamiliar environments and perform well there independently.

"I got overwhelmed during my law school years because I wasn't prepared for unexpected situations that could happen while studying abroad on my own. So I try to tell them the things that would have helped me had I known them earlier," he said.

Despite the project's novelty and good intention, Yoon said so far he has not been very successful in drawing much attention from parents due to the unfamiliarity of coaching camps here.

Yet he hoped that his upcoming projects will become better known among Koreans in the future.

"Ultimately, I'm planning on creating a coaching community, where ties among members are stronger than just networking. Members who have similar goals and thoughts will be able to largely boost one another's potential," he said.

Yoon said he particularly wants to recruit those who have studied overseas for the community.

"Many of them have a hard time finding the right job after coming back to Korea so most of them end up teaching at language institutes. I'd like to carry out projects where they can do well and get paid well at the same time," he said.
