Jiwon Moon

Writer, Thinker, Storyteller

Hi! My name is Jiwon.

I was born in Seoul and moved to Southern California when I was 10 years old.

I worked at Wefunder as its fourth employee and started XX, an accelerator that invested in 40+ startups at the earliest stage.

Now I live in San Francisco, a city I left many times but keep coming back to. I'm (still) obsessed with Kpop Demon Hunters and I'm happiest when I play tennis or cook these days. In 2026, I plan to spend more time at the Golden Gate Park and master kimchi making.

If you need videos that capture the heart of your team and the energy of people building something special, I'm currently open for new projects. Email me.

Recent Videos:

I wanted to capture the excitement of the Puentes engineers finding their paths to work in the US and show the incredible results of the program.

I traveled with the Wefunder team in 2024 and filmed their journey across the US meeting dozens of entrepreneurs in 12 different cities.

I made this video a gaming startup elsewhere and their team. This video was used for recruiting on their team page.

We film and produce a weekly podcast with interesting people -- artists, founders, chefs and politicians.

Bucket List

I'm a firm believer in bucket lists. In my early 20s, I scribbled one down and completely forgot it existed. Years later, I found it again in my old journal and realized that I'd checked off more than half the list.

Current bucket list:

Renovate our kitchen to be my dream kitchen
Be as good at cooking as halmoni (grandma) before I'm 80
Make a cookbook with halmoni
Write an original song
Beat appa at a set of tennis
Become a mom
Build a family house in Jeju
Travel writer like Chris Arnade
Do 10 pushups

Some I crossed off:

Live in a different city for a month every year
Take my parents on a vacation abroad
Start a fund that invests in women
Live in Jeju Island
