While in Korea, his two main goals are to travel as much of Asia as possible and to convince more drinking establishments to offer his favorite buzz-inducing substance, Fernet. So far, he has been to many more countries than bars that serve Fernet in Seoul. Jaime is from Waterloo, Ontario, and has lived in Seoul since June 2012. Her MA is in Communications, but that doesn’t always translate to being able to speak coherently. When she isn’t at work, she’s busy trying to build up a tolerance to spicy food. She follows more blogs than she cares to admit. Jaime is Groove Korea’s senior copy editor. Sophie was born and raised in the land of the long white cloud also known as New Zealand. She studied journalism and media arts before heading overseas to float around, getting acquainted with a small slice of the world. She is currently free - lancing and enjoying all of the delights that Korea has to offer. Beryl grew up in a pine forest in Massachu- setts. After studying philosophy in Scotland, she moved to Seoul where she plays backgam- mon and tends to her windowsill nasturtiums. She studies traditional fermentation and, from moonshine to makgeolli, is an avid brewer. She runs an urban gardening project in the center of the city and is happiest with dirt under her fingernails. beryl Sinclair U.S. John M. Rodgers is a founding editor of The Three Wise Monkeys webzine. He’s contribu- ted to the New York Times, International He- rald Tribune, Asia Times, various Korean dailies, and worked as a beat reporter at a local paper in the U.S. state of New Hampshire, where he grew up. He’s currently studying and working at Dartmouth College. John is Groove Korea’s editor-at-large. john m. Rodgers U.S.
