Reel Asian fam, it’s been wild. see you in my future 😌 you’re all there i’m sure.
from Sunfish. // 單獨.
I’ve been thinking about you lots, little me. I would like to come find you and tell you all the things I know. But I guess I’ll wait, and you’ll catch up eventually.
Between a rock and a hard place is my tender heart soaking in the crest of a tide rising to meet the moon. Feelings triggered by @patternsandportraits 💗
in wrestling with my dissatisfaction and restlessness, in my inability to reach the horizon, I come to a flicker of revelation when I see I have been fulfilling all the things younger me yearned for. 只是野心越大了，衝動強大了，所以依然追尋那無畏的自己在無際的地方。 in that turning of the head, the world and its unheeding silence swell luminous in my eyes. 請容許我原地不動一會兒吧。when this moment passes, i will be on my way.
If you knew @baoface & i in our #baomun comic days, you’ll be happy to know we have resumed partnership for a lil project. In the meantime, here’s a new #baomun ft the same old baoface & jaziimun 😬
Oh this fall; my heart. 🍂
I would like to be the person @baoface is drawing, but in real life.
If you’re looking for me, I’ll be at the @reelasian film festival. 😏 Nov 8-16, be there or be on your way there. 😂 #reelasian22

// days like today, i am grateful for the people who continuously give me opportunities, with trust; for the people who believe in my strengths and check in; for the people who invite me, to teach, learn, and share; i am grateful to work with people who i can share a good laugh to end a long exhausted hectic day. - 처음으로 제대로 사회생활을 시작하며 나는 매일 노력을 하려고 한다. 성격상 사람들과 쉽게 어울리기 힘들지만 내가 편해지기 위해서라도 나는 한발짝씩 내 틀에서 나올려고 한다. - 피곤하고 긴 하루를 농담을 던져 모두 다 웃음으로 마무리 할 수 있게 해주는 동료들이 너무나도 고맙다. here’s to the opening of my second festival.
// an autumn season ago. - 먼 푸른 얘기를 들었어, 세상에 영원한 것은 없다고; 나도 알고는 있었지만, 어딘가에는 꼭 숨어서라도 있을 것만 같아서, 품고 있었어; (소낙빌 “evergreen”) - more care for anticipated exhaustion; more comfort in the space i am present; more confusion for what i desire; all with more smiles with his warmth, unexpectedly startling this autumn.
- to hold and to cherish. to carry and to love. - 한 사람의 자리가 비었다는 것은 정말로 슬픈 사실이다. - to hold the emptiness decorate with care. - 나는 그 빈자리를 채우지 못해 주변에 벽돌을 쌓다가 부시고 꽃을 심다가 분노에 벽돌을 다시 쌓고 서러움에 다시 꽃을 뿌리고 다시 계속 ... 다시 ... 공허감을 메꾸는 끝없는 노력.
// love this quiet moment - “난 지금 행복해 그래서 불안해 폭풍 전 바다는 늘 고요하니까 불이 붙어 빨리 타면 안 되잖아 - 우리의 어린 밤을 지켜줬던 그 빛일 거야 또 보러 가자” - 따듯하게 해주는 예쁜 가사들. how to let you know the warmth of these words. when they only exist in these words. 한 언어의 낭만은 어떤 언어가 열심히 노력을 해도 절대 이해할 수 없다.
// traces, emblems, remnants. ... “그렇게 사라져 가는데 아무것도 할 수 없었네 i couldn’t do anything even if they were disappearing 잊을 수 없을 것만 같던 순간도 희미해져 갔어 even those moments i thought i will never forget are fading away 영원히 변하지 않는건 세상 어디에도 없었지 there was nothing in this world that never changed 하지만 잊을 수 없는게 어딘가 남아 있을거야 but somewhere what you can’t forget will remain” - 언니네 이발관 “산들산들” ... still sad they disbanded.
// (summer) days gone by. 신경쓰였던 많이 지쳤던 필요했던 하루. 웃음으로 보내 버리고, 기억으로 남겨 버린다. - “큰 숨을 내쉬고 편해져 보려 해도 넌 여전히 좀 답답해 그래 보여” 디어 클라우드 “wallflowers” - looking closely, this album holds so much. it hurts my heart.
// snippets. 어제를 살아봤다고 오늘도 아는게 아니니깐. - 1) scenes of korea: hanok village by an artist who told me comforting words when everyone questioned my choices; my dream place for a break by an artist who came here for the first time; familiar landscapes by me. - 2) two years of promise that finally came true. holding my biggest burden and my dearest love. - 3) learning the beauty of our hands with @ladyailyn, molding earth, building strength with air and water. recognizing imperfections and anticipations. and remembering to breathe. - 천천히. 숨 크게 쉬고. 차근차근.
// this summer. - • 생각이 많아지면 만들고 쓰고 그리는 것이 힘들어진다. 몇년동안 시간 낭비라는 드라마는 바쁜 머리의 휴식을 위한 필수품이 되었다. • 우리는 수 많은 감정을 꾹꾹 눌러 참고 산다. 누구나 가족에 대한 아픔이 있다. • 나를 위한 누군가의 귀 하나만 있어도 위로가 된다. 친구들한테 그 하나의 귀가 되자. • 답답한 마음은 솔직하지 못해서다. 제일 힘든건 나의 진심을 깨닫고 나한테 솔직해지는 거다. • 사람을 많이 만나고 한 번쯤은 울어야지 내가 필요한 사람이 누군지 알게된다. • 몸을 열심히 챙기면 평생갈것같은 두통도 사라진다. 이제 어리다는건 핑계 뿐이다. 진짜 좀 신경 써야지. - i need to practice writing more in english. or feeling more comfortable with the language, despite being more fluent in it. but also this won’t convey what i want if i wrote in english. - 1) watching my friend’s film during work break. 2) walking somewhere. 3) chilling at the park after eating so much. 4) driving somewhere. - 잠깐 쉬고 갈게요.
this summer. - “힘들다고 생각할 때, 한발자국 더 나가야 된다” 마치 지금 나한테 하는 말 같았다. - photo by jing.
