Field notes
Jung says he studied visual design and has spent about a decade making apps in Makubetsu, Hokkaido. The portfolio gives each project a compact premise: BFT starts a focus timer when the phone is turned face down, while Cloud Postman frames letter delivery as flights to islands in the sky. Four Sketch is marked “coming soon”; the page also describes his use of AI agents as coding collaborators, with him setting each app’s feel and scope.
