Introducing Olivia Yeji Jeung, Country Manager for Japan



Olivia was born in Seoul, Korea and grew up mostly in Boston, USA, and has lived in Japan for over 15 years, where she holds an MA in Japanese Language and Literature. During her career, she has held leadership roles in international companies such as American Express, Booking.com and Expedia, but her first job in Japan was as the Coordinator for International Relations under the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Olivia describes herself as someone who loves meeting new people, interacting face to face and spending time with suppliers and agents.

"I am excited to expand our Japan operations with this new and talented team and look forward to supporting each team member's professional growth while helping to drive rapid travel demand in the market. I hope that the expertise I have gained through my previous experiences will serve Discova Japan well," added Olivia.

An active and adventurous traveller, she concludes by recommending her favourite places in Japan for like-minded tourists.

"I really love Hokkaido because it has diverse nature, delicious food and is a great place to enjoy leisure activities like skiing!" she concluded.

Office Environment

The Tokyo office has a bright and open feel to it with separate meeting rooms. On this day, most of the staff were working remotely. It has an energetic vibe, and it is easy to communicate with others.
