Sofia (Yoojin) Chung


Founder & Head Consultant


Sofia graduated from the University of Oxford with a BA in PPE (Philosophy, Politics and Economics). Prior to starting the Ariton brand, she worked extensively in admissions in Korea and globally, guiding students to successfully apply to Ivy League, Oxbridge, and Top 20 universities. She also advised major global companies on strategy as a management consultant at a top US consulting firm.


Having studied in the UK, USA, and South Korea, Sofia personally understands how different learning environments foster unique thought leaders. As such, at Ariton we are committed to fostering the kind of ideal environment that will help each student reach their goals.


Ariton started out as a book club, born out of a desire to foster reflection and independent thought. While the company has grown since, we remain true to this mission. We aim to nurture students to become thinkers and through this - realize their true potential at university and beyond.

Sihun Jung


Director & Consultant


Sihun was born in Korea but was brought up in London and Lille in the north of France. As a student, Sihun spent his high-school days reading philosophy, and wrestling with an über-strict French private tutor from Brittany. Sihun learned the art of writing from a tutor (now friend), and ever since, Sihun has been writing and reading with a strong nose for detecting — to borrow Orwell’s terms — hogwash.


Graduating Summa Cum Laude with a BA in both English and French Literature, Sihun went on to qualify for a PhD program in Linguistics at UCSD. After a couple publications and shortly after qualifying as a candidate, Sihun left academia with a Master’s degree to pursue his true passion: writing and writing instruction. To this day Sihun enjoys the nitty-gritty of true focused writing above anything else. He also loves to spread to his students that same passion and obsession for the written word
