Questions
Do I need to present?
The first round, the host demos a case. After that we rotate — but bringing a case is optional and we help you prep.
Is it just networking?
It's curated, small-room conversation with a theme each night — not a name-card scramble.
Do I need Korean?
No. Nights run English-friendly.
Refunds?
Full refund up to 7 days before the first night. (Test cohort terms.)
