The exercise of elderly people encountered on the streets of Korea is based on their own philosophy of the body. They believe that self-devised, repetitive movements and massages can relieve pain and improve their physical condition. Anti Hotteok Energy is a video that provides an exposition of a fictional energy passed down like a myth for many years, and it explores an exercise method introduced by a fictional figure.

A house marked by deficiency becomes a memorable one.
The three floor plans are charts of the houses I lived in, reflecting their structural deficiencies, and at the same time, they serve as maps. To interpret these maps, a symbol table was created, designed to aid understanding by matching lines, shapes, and colors to the floor plans.
*Drawings related to the performance [temporary wall] are included.
-This work was exhibited as part of the collective exhibition boat room.

video performance, cica. 8min
The performance utilizes an living space as an exhibition space, expressing the spatial gap and sense of dissonance between the interior (room) and the exterior (balcony) through foley sound as a medium.
The positions of the audience and the sound designer are separated by a temporary wall, reflecting the situation in which the video was filmed.
The sound designer stays on the balcony, improvising sounds in real-time to match the video being played inside the room. The resulting mismatched synchronization and unsettling noise convey, through sound, the unfamiliar and uneasy effort to maintain tempo in an unstable environment.

A change of residence is more than just a physical move, it is the starting point for adopting new perspectives and views.
'Blink twice' is not only a list of collected images, but also the process of perceiving them visually. The process of adapting to the environment and digesting it is similar to how humans receive and perceive visual images. Our visual perception seems to happen instantaneously, but behind the scenes, complex neural networks interact to process and analyze it. In this way, we may be dancing on a myriad of paths, making repeated choices to reach a single destination.

"Floating Hands" deals with experiences of separation, from departure to arrival. It captures the narratives of the collective Eaches, a group of Koreans residing in Germany, who perceive separation as a common occurrence in their lives. Departures are inevitably linked to arrivals, creating a rhythmic cycle that appears to dwell more on the past than the future. The fleeting moments of leaving and arriving, akin to a swinging pendulum, vividly depict the transient nature of temporary homes.
