The Remnants

In October 2015, the evicted residents who had imprisoned on a false charge of killing a policeman assembled in a place for the first time after the Yongsan Disaster six years ago. They had occupied a watchtower against unreasonable redevelopment policies and in protest against violent suppression used by riot police in 25 hours of their sit-in demonstration. Their colleagues had died from an unknown fire, and they became criminals. The delight of meeting again lasts only briefly. The ‘comrades’ rip out cruel words while blaming each other.

Cuban Boyfriend

I travelled to Cuba, a land of sensual sunlight. 100 years ago Koreans immigrated to Cuba looking for the land of milk and honey. However, is it still possible to find a similar place in the current Socialist Cuba? Or, is it crumbling away by the wave of Neo-Liberalism, like old buildings falling under the weight of time? During my interviews I met a boy with especially radiant eyes and fell in love with him. I brought him with me to the other side of the world. My frizzy haired dark skinned boyfriend who has never left Cuba, is now treated like a goblin who must find salvation and be resurrected in Korea.
