Profile

Bokyung Lee is a professor of Cultural and Design Management at Yonsei University, Underwood International College. Before joining Yonsei, she worked as a Senior Designer at Samsung Electronics, and prior to that, as a Senior Research Scientist at Autodesk Research in Toronto. Her research lies at the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction and Interactive System Designs. Her research vision is to design comfortable and novel experiences for an immersive, interactive, and simulated convergence world at a shared, with a multi-disciplinary approach. She has envisioned various potential interactions for future technologies (VR/AR/AI) with the goal of enhancing our convergence experiences.
