Every property site in Korea (Hogang-no-no, Zigbang, Dabang) shows the same listings with the same agents.

What people actually need when moving:

• How far is the subway? (door to platform)
• Can my kid walk to school?
• Is there a mart within 10 min on foot?
• How long to my workplace, with transfers?

That's what I built: https://geoinfomatic.pythonanywhere.com/?ref=lemmy

No listings. No agents. Just an honest accessibility map.

Funded by 5 free analyses/day + 9,900 KRW Pro tier. Built solo with Flask + Leaflet.

A small tool I built: enter a location in South Korea and ZipScope shows that neighborhood's living-zone profile at a glance — nearby amenities and accessibility, scored. No real-estate listings, just the analysis.

Useful before moving or comparing areas: https://tarofortune.pythonanywhere.com/analyze?ref=lemmy

As I built the Gyeonggi Currency Map, one feature that stands out is the real-time 'open now' filter. It’s fascinating to see how it changes user behavior—people can find local merchants in a snap! Leveraging Firebase for dynamic data updates was a rewarding experience. I hope this tool helps more folks support local businesses!

Most real-estate sites in Korea push listings. I wanted the opposite: a pure neighborhood analyzer without listings or ads pushing properties.

What it does:

• Pick any address in South Korea
• Choose walk or transit mode
• Slider: 10 / 20 / 30 / 45 min radius
• See subway stations + 8 facility types (school, hospital, mart, park, gym, pharmacy, library, cafe) reachable inside that isochrone
• AI summary in natural language
• 100-point composite score
• Transfer-count breakdown (0/1/2 transfers) for transit mode

Freemium: 5 free runs/day, 9,900 KRW/month Pro for unlimited.

Demo: https://geoinfomatic.pythonanywhere.com/?ref=lemmy

Stack: Flask + Leaflet + OSRM (walking graph) + public transit data + custom isochrone overlay.

In Korean Saju astrology, the day you were born maps to one of 60 'Day Pillars', each a vivid archetype — like a great tree finding a deep well, or a flower enduring cold earth. I translated all 60 into English with full readings. Find yours free: https://tarofortune.pythonanywhere.com/en/sixty-pillars?ref=lemmy #astrology #Saju #BaZi #FourPillars #ChineseAstrology

Job interviews in English are brutal when it isn't your first language — you blank out and forget the lines you rehearsed.

So I built Interview Copilot. You paste your resume + the job description, and it:

• generates tailored English answers for likely questions
• runs AI mock interviews (questions read aloud via TTS, with a timer + feedback)
• shows a pronunciation guide under every sentence
• optionally assists live during the real interview

I built an interactive map (React + Vite + Leaflet, Firebase Hosting) that shows local currency merchant locations across Gyeonggi Province in South Korea.

What makes it useful:

• 31 cities unified (each city used to have its own page with no map)
• Business-type chip filter (restaurants, cafes, convenience, academies, salons...)
• "Open now" real-time filter — only shows merchants currently open
• PWA installable — no app store, just add to home screen
• KakaoTalk share with OG card preview

Built solo over a few weeks. Source data from official Gyeonggi Province open API.

Coming from Western astrology to Saju, the mental model shift:

Western — where the planets were when you were born. Saju — the 'energetic signature' of your birth moment, expressed as 8 Chinese characters.

Saju uses Heavenly Stems (10) and Earthly Branches (12) forming 60 cycles. Birth year, month, day, and hour each get one stem + one branch — '4 pillars / 8 characters.'

Biggest practical difference: your day pillar functions like a sun sign in Western. Different day pillars produce strikingly different archetypes.

The Sun's apparent ecliptic longitude is divided into 24 equal segments of 15°. Each crossing is a 'solar term' — observable to ancient astronomers via shadow length and equinox/solstice timing.

In BaZi/Saju, 12 of the 24 solar terms mark month-pillar boundaries:

• Yin month (寅) starts at Ipchun (立春, sun at 315°, ~Feb 4)
• Mao month (卯) starts at Jingzhe (驚蟄, sun at 345°, ~Mar 6)
• ... and so on, completing the lunar months

Two people born 2 days apart in early February can have entirely different month pillars if the boundary fell between them.

The 12 animals map to the 12 Earthly Branches:

Rat=子 | Ox=丑 | Tiger=寅 | Rabbit=卯 Dragon=辰 | Snake=巳 | Horse=午 | Goat=未 Monkey=申 | Rooster=酉 | Dog=戌 | Pig=亥

'I'm a Tiger' = your YEAR branch is 寅. But you also have month, day, hour branches — three more 'animals.' Your zodiac year is just 1 of 4.

Korean parents sometimes check kids' Saju to guide parenting:

• Day Master + Elements — innate type. Don't fight it.
• Resource pattern — structured learning vs experiential?
• Officer pattern — how much external structure they handle
• Daewoon transitions — anticipate adolescent or young adult shifts

Used this way, Saju is just typology + timing — like MBTI parenting books.

Every Heavenly Stem comes in Yang or Yin. Same element, different expression style.

• Jia (甲) Yang Wood: great tree. Tall, straight, ambitious.
• Yi (乙) Yin Wood: vine/flower. Adaptable, magnetic.
• Bing (丙) Yang Fire: sun. Bright, theatrical.
• Ding (丁) Yin Fire: candle. Intimate, focused.
• Wu (戊) Yang Earth: mountain. Steady.
• Ji (己) Yin Earth: fertile field. Yielding, nourishing.
• Geng (庚) Yang Metal: steel/axe. Decisive.
• Xin (辛) Yin Metal: jewel. Refined, proud.
• Ren (壬) Yang Water: river/ocean. Mobile.
• Gui (癸) Yin Water: rain/dew. Subtle, deep.

Saju and BaZi inherit 'special spirits' (神煞 Shensha) — symbolic labels for specific stem-branch combinations:

• Tianyi Guiren (天乙貴人) — Heavenly Noble; helpers in crisis
• Yima (驛馬) — Horse star; movement, travel
• Taohua (桃花) — Peach Blossom; romantic attraction
• Huagai (華蓋) — Canopy; solitude, art, spirituality
• Yangren (羊刃) — Sharp Blade; excess Day Master energy

Modern scholarly practice is split. Pro-Shensha: accumulated empirical observations. Anti-Shensha: late additions with weaker theoretical grounding than Ten Gods or Yongshen.

My take: useful as tie-breakers. Not load-bearing.
