My KOR







/ Copy / Illustration / Layout / Motion Graphics / Publication


In this publication, I explore my  relationship with my mother tongue, Korean. Through a series of interviews, I reflect on the impact it has had on shaping my identity, family dynamics, and worldview. Through language, I reflect on the way my culture has been passed down through generations, influencing my sense of self. At the same time, I examine the tension between preserving the nuances of Korean and navigating the global landscape in which English has become the lingua franca. This piece is a personal meditation on how the words we speak—and the ones we don't—hold the power to define who we are.
