From the publisher: “This book is a collection of moments captured in both Korean and English, intertwined with photographs, which conveys the power of recording the process of self-discovery.
If we could be defined by a color, we would be violet. - p. 19
This book encompasses attempts at essays and poetry. There are poems written to intertwine the real world and the imagined one. There are essays written to forget the real world, yet simultaneously to remember it. There are photographs that exist because I chose not to discard fleeting moments. If you have ever dreamed of freely traveling between Korea and England, you will find motivation in my reflections written in English. If, like the author, you are someone whose memories tend to fade, you may unexpectedly hatch forgotten memories from this book. The color embodied in this book is violet, the seasons are mainly summer and winter, and the emotions are largely those of love at the edge of a cliff.”
