최진 (JinChoi) is a half-time student, half-time famous long boarder and model. You might probably know Jin for her viral video on instagram (@c.jiny) where she slides through the crowd in a school uniform.
She even became the face of Solinotes fragrances as well as Tinder Korea! I have been following her for a good year now and I am still obsessed by the way she effortlessly ride through the streets of Seoul. If you are wondering what kind of long boarding she does, it is called longboard dancing. So get to know 최진 in this quick interview!
Note: Jin and I where both in our exams period when we did the interview that’s why it is shorter than all the ones I did before.
