Why โ€œWise Flowerโ€?
์™œ โ€˜์™€์ด์ฆˆ ํ”Œ๋ผ์›Œโ€™์ธ๊ฐ€์š”?

A name can hold many meanings โ€” mine carries
็Ÿฅ (์•Œ ์ง€, wisdom โ†’ wise) and ่‹ฑ (๊ฝƒ๋ถ€๋ฆฌ ์˜, flower).

โ€œWise Flowerโ€ is just a soft translation.
Gentle. A little loose on purpose.

๐Ÿช„ About This Site
Built from scratch in a 2-day blur of curiosity, deployment, and late-night searching (with a little help from ChatGPT) โ€” sparked by a 30-minute chat with my PhD advisor.

Still evolving โ€” and so am I.
Last revamped on April 2, 2025.
