Youngsook Kim & Nils Clauss

Youngsook Kim and Nils Clauss are an international couple who have made Jeju their home for the past eight years. Youngsook, a self-taught baker, runs Breadpit, a baking studio specializing in naturally leavened bread, and is also active as an essay writer. Nils Clauss, who studied film in Germany and later learned cinematography in Korea, works as a filmmaker and photographer across a range of projects including films, music videos, commercials, and documentaries. Together, they value raising their children close to nature while maintaining a balance between life and work. Recently, with their two daughters, they completed a 14-day, 280-kilometer walk along the Camino de Santiago, from Porto to Santiago Cathedral. The challenges they faced along the way, as well as the kindness of strangers, became unforgettable memories for the family. They plan to continue pursuing new journeys through daily life and creative work in Jeju.
