Neck Tattoo
Neck tattoos remind me of a female lawyer I worked with a few years back. With her super short hair, her neck tattoo of a heart character was always visible in the elevator.

Tidying Up
Around this time of year, I had to wrap up my life in San Francisco to head back to Seoul. 🌆 Tidying up meant tackling endless tasks I never anticipated. I arranged to disconnect the internet, electricity, and gas through different services for my departure day. I met the sweet landlady, whom I last saw…

The Most Perfect Song, Viva La Vida
There’s a song I believe is the most perfect in the world, and it’s Coldplay’s ‘Viva La Vida’. 🎶 First off, the legendary synth rhythm grabs your ears right from the start. I never imagined they could carry this epic hook all the way through, even echoing it with the strings. You’re left mesmerized by…

Animation Production Manual
Kazuya Masumoto is quite the legendary creator, having worked at Gainax on ‘Gurren Lagann’ and ‘Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt,’ before founding Trigger and producing ‘Kill la Kill.’ 🎥 I remember watching all those animations in awe, so I couldn’t resist picking up his book, ‘Animation Production Manual.’

IU’s Pride
Sometimes, when I feel nostalgic, I listen to IU and Kim Yuna’s ‘Ice Flower’, and every single time, I can’t help but smile. It’s as if young IU is speaking to Kim Yuna through the song. “So what if you’re the queen of figure skating? I’m a singer! And an absolutely amazing one at that!!”

Minari
This movie tells a story that feels real. While all films might seem plausible, this one feels like the most believable of them all. Living is a heavy burden. Every creature lives, but humans, with their ability to think, endure continuous suffering. We worry about the future, preventing us from enjoying the present; we compare…
