About Me
I studied Physical Education Development and graduated at Myeongji University in South Korea after that, turned into Pro Tour. Played mostly ITF circuit and challenger events. I can warm my players up, have a solid hit with them and match play as well.
I am committed and passionate about my coaching. Support the growth of young athletes in a positive energy, innovative and excellence-driven environment.
I love travelling, working out, challenging myself, and being in the nature. I’m into calisthenics, running and hyrox so have done a few Marathon events and will continue to enjoy my hobbies.
I’m positive and bright so like to spread good energy to others.

Testimonial
Knowing Jihee personally from the tour. Jihee spoke fluent English and was one of the top coaches to work with me over the last 20 years. She thrived in every area of the development pathway that she worked in from beginner, through to high performance, and Tour level players. I cannot recommend her enough and watching her further improve and develop into one of the leading female international coaches has been a pleasure.
