오경진 吳景振 #HalfKorean, born in Itaewon, Seoul. Studied French literature and Latin at the University of Angers in France before finding the poetry of code.
Founder and developer at LITEMINT and XBID LABS. C++ is my native language. I never stopped exploring beyond it.
I started out in tech as a C++ developer at LCL Bank in Paris, moved to London to work on smartcard systems for the UK government’s National Programme for IT, and later served as Tech Lead at BGC Group in London with occasional projects in New York. After a few years in finance, I left to make games full time. I released 14 titles, earned an Honorable Mention at the 2014 Linux & Samsung Tizen App Challenge, and co-founded the Israel-based studio Massive Games before creating LITEMINT in 2018 and XBID LABS more recently.
My journey into programming was atypical. I studied French literature and Latin at the University of Angers in France before teaching myself C++ after buying my first computer (still the best investment I ever made). For me, coding has always been a form of writing; a way to express meaning.
I was born in Korea and live here now, after years spent across several countries. Baudelaire’s Le Voyage is among my favorite poems. He wrote that true voyagers leave simply to leave; a paradoxical tautology I’ve always loved—in C++ poetry: std::invoke([] { std::exit(0); return true; })
Outside of work, I paint, I game, and I keep learning. Martial arts have been part of my life since childhood, with Taekwondo grounding me the most. Learn something, build something, Love above all, repeat.
