Sung currently works as a creative director at Ogilvy New York, overseeing Verizon. He also works as an adjunct professor at the School of Visual Arts in New York.

Long story short, there are accomplishments that he believes he distanced himself from other creatives in the market.

He turned a boutique agency in Seoul into an award-winning agency bringing the first Gold and Silver trophies from New York Festivals for LG AI Research Lab.

This year alone, he has won numerous client pitches, which include Samsung, LG, Yogiyo(one of the biggest food delivery apps in Seoul), Green Peace Seoul, and many others, bringing the biggest revenue growth to the company's history.

He became an adjunct professor at age 30, with his student winning 3 Future Lions Awards, 2 Best of Show at Andy Awards, and trophies One Show, ADC, D&AD, Clios, and New York Festivals every year.

Then, he brought his education career one step further. He founded an online streaming education platform called Openlearn Academy. It's a platform designed to help financially and educationally underprivileged students in South Korea. And within three years, it has won more national advertising and design awards than any other Korean university.

A small boutique agency to an award-winning agency.

A creative director who manages employees +50 students to win awards every year.

And an entrepreneur who created a platform to help fellow creatives.

He's been bringing different approaches to every life challenge that he faced and turned them into a successful career. And he can't wait to bring that value to you.

안녕하세요 하성권 크리에이티브 디렉터 입니다.

저는 현재 뉴욕(Ogilvy New York)에서 크리에이티브 디렉터로 근무하며 버라이즌(Verizon) 텔레콤 광고주를 메니징하고 있습니다. 뉴욕 School of Visual Arts에서 겸임 교수로 재직하고 있고, 오픈런아카데미라는 해외공모전 최다수상 플랫폼의 창업자이기도 합니다.

저의 커리어를 간단히 소개하자면,

서울에 있는 프로덕션 유브갓픽쳐스라는 프로덕션에서 제작총괄로 일하며, 1년안에 LG AI LAB광고주에게 뉴욕 페스티벌에서 최초의 금상과 은상 트로피를 가져오는 수상 경력을 갖고 있습니다.

유브갓픽쳐스 제작총괄을 맡고있는 당시 삼성 LG 요기요 그린피스 CJ온스타일 포함한 수많은 클라이언트 프레젠테이션에서 우승하여 회사 역사상 가장 큰 수익 성장을 가져왔습니다.

30세에 뉴욕 School of Visual Arts 겸임교수가 되었으며  Future Lions Award 3개, Andy Awards에서 Best of Show 2개를 수상하고 One Show, ADC, D&AD, Clios 및 New York Festivals에서 트로피를 받고 있습니다. 한해를 거르지 않고 트로피를 수상하고 있습니다.

서울에 있는 대학이 아니면 제대로 된 광고교육을 받을 수 없는 학생들을 돕기위해 Openlearn Academy라는 온라인 스트리밍 교육 플랫폼을 만들었습니다. 대한민국의 경제적 교육적 소외 계층 학생들을 돕기 위해 고안된 플랫폼입니다. 그리고 3년 만에 한국의 다른 어떤 대학보다 더 많은 전국 광고 및 디자인 상을 수상했습니다.

저는 커리어에서 마주한 모든 문제와 도전을 언제나 항상 다양한 방법으로 접근하여 풀어냈습니다.

젋은 인재를 키우기 위해 대학교수로.

제대로 된 교육을 못 받는 청년들을 위해 다시 창업으로.

제가 살아오며 추구한 가치를 귀하회사로 가져갈 수 있는날을 기대해 봅니다.

Thanks to these giants who shaped my career:
