Episode001 From Seoul to Silicon Valley: My Leap of Faith (Chinese)

from Cross-cultural Stories · host Ray

In this very first episode of Cross-Cultural Stories, I share my personal journey of leaving behind a stable job at a major company in South Korea to start a new life in the United States. It’s a story of courage, confusion, culture shock — and the quiet strength it takes to rebuild from scratch in a foreign land.I talk about what it really means to “start over” in your 30s, how I dealt with fear and doubt, what surprised me the most about living in America, and how my identity shifted between home and abroad.This episode isn’t just about one person’s journey — it’s for anyone who has ever stood at the edge of the known world and asked: Is it worth it to begin again?从韩国大厂裸辞赴美的追梦中国人,我都经历了什么?如果你也曾在深夜问自己:“我到底想要怎样的人生?”那这一集可能会让你感到共鸣。我叫Ray,在韩国一家大企业工作近两年后,选择裸辞、搬到美国斯坦福,从零开始重建身份与生活。这一集,我想与你分享这个选择背后的挣扎与勇气,从“安稳”的轨道走出来之后,我经历了经济的压力、身份的转变、找工作的焦虑,也感受到了新世界带来的自由与可能。这是一个关于转身、关于重新开始、关于在他乡寻找自我的故事。如果你正在考虑改变,或者也站在人生的十字路口,希望这个声音能陪你一段路。节目时长:30分钟
