Song of maengkong

In the midst of political battles, people sang together, hoping for solidarity and a brighter future. The lyrics and syllables people used to chant always seemed to align with the song's ideals, but in reality, it's heading to a blurry past. The Maeng-Kong's cry, however, is not tied to a specific era that people yearned for. Their song simply echoes as their mating call rather than a political statement. The sound "Maeng-Kong-(Croak- Croak-)" howls; could we imagine a space of struggle and solidarity once more?

The artist looks back at the passing of time and raises his camera to capture it. He looked back at the fragments of time that he had accumulated, and once again looked back at the time that had passed. The traces of time left on the film begin to move as light passes through them, some as memories, some as dreams. Even though not much time had passed, some of the things he wanted to recall became dreams, and some of the things that seemed like dreams remained clear in his mind. What did Goh recall and what did he dream of? It is not clear, but he embraces the past time and tries to finish the work of Dreams and Retropection of Go Taeyoung.
