When he was 17 years old, Julian Quintart left Aywaille, in the Liège region, to go to South Korea as part of a Rotary exchange – the first of its kind between the two countries. After a few months of learning the language, doors started to open for him: television, music, modelling, and acting opportunities. 21 years later, his fame serves as leverage for even greater projects.
“You don’t realise just how much Wallonia gives you, and how much it has to give, until you leave it.” Following in his parents’ footsteps, who owned a business selling natural products, Julian now heads the Nono Shop, a zero-waste grocery shop and vegan café. Committed to the cause, he also hosts workshops for Climate Fresk within Korean companies.
