Better Days

© Seunggu Kim

Korea has developed rapidly over 40 years, which caused a lot of social consequences. One of which is long working hours with a very short break period. Koreans try their best to enjoy holidays, but due to the lack of time to travel, they spend most of their time around the city. I take a step back and observe various leisure spaces and people, slowly frame them, and wait for complex situations to balance. Koreans' “fast pace lifestyle", and "community-based trust", revealed in this work show Koreans adapting to any situation, enjoying themselves together, and striving for ”coexistence“.
