Sunghyun Lim is a theatre director and playwright based in Seoul, South Korea. He is a third-year M.F.A. in Theatre student with a specialization in directing at The University of Texas at Austin. He creates work that tears apart myths and fantasies, confronts nasty realities and curses the distorted world we live in. He doesn't believe theatre can change the world, but at least it changed him, anyway, so he tells himself that's reason enough to keep living as a poor theatre maker.
