SIWA Speaker Series: From North Korea to Entrepreneur – Miso Yoon
From North Korea to Entrepreneurship: A Journey of Resilience & Color
Start your morning with creativity and end with inspiration. Join us for an inspiring event featuring Miso Yoon, Personal Image Consultant and CEO of MiSO Colortic.
We’ll kick things off with a hands-on workshop where you’ll discover the perfect color tailored to your skin tone. Under Miso’s expert guidance, you will formulate and create your own custom-matched vegan lipstick to take home.
With your new signature shade in hand, we will transition to Miso’s powerful story—a compelling look at how self-expression became her path to resilience and freedom. Having escaped from North Korea, she transformed her passion for beauty and fashion into a thriving business in South Korea. During this session, she will share her unique journey—from the challenges of starting over in a new society to the lessons she’s learned as a woman entrepreneur finding her own “color”.
You’ll leave not only with a new signature lipstick but with a renewed sense of perseverance.
Space is limited for this special event — reserve your spot today to experience this powerful story of transformation and creativity!
