Majestic & Steady: A Self-Portrait
This is probably the most excited I’ve ever felt about a painting before. For the first time it was like pure joy creating this piece. This one is special to me. It’s a self-portrait.


It all made sense. Like a series of paintings exploring a topic or theme, where each painting delves into one aspect of the topic and common themes unite them into a series of something more that they could ever be on their own. Arirang did the same.

This is my first fan letter, ever. Thoughts about the Arirang album and the tracks are actually keeping me up on multiple nights; it’s the last thing on my mind and the first thing I thing I think of when I wake up.

이 글은 제 인생 첫 팬레터 입니다. BTS에 대한 생각들을 적지 않으면 잠이 안 올 것 같아 긴 글을 적어보았습니다. 아리랑 앨범과 수로곡들에 대한 여러가지 생각들로 사실 잠을 잘 청하지 못했어요. 잠들기 전 마지막으로 떠오르는것도, 아침에 눈 뜨자마자 가장 먼저 생각나는 것도 이 앨범들이에요.
