About

Stefano Jun

Stefano is a civil engineer and cartoonist based in Calgary, Alberta. He has been drawing comics for local newspapers and online platforms related to his life as a Korean immigrant, having moved to Canada at the age of 8.

 

One fateful day, Stefano grew tired of his friends constantly asking him to draw them, so he began by recording their embarrassing moments as funny comics. Soon enough, these comics became popular - much to the annoyance of his now former friends - and Stefano realized he had a talent for creating relatable stories, including about his own experiences. Stefano's Korean heritage and Canadian life provides a unique insight into the search for self-identity and acceptance.

 

Stefano will someday realize that the real money is in his engineering career instead of artistic passion, but that day is not today. Needless to say, his Asian parents are yet to be proud of his life decisions.
