“(…)
It is impossible for one nation to assimilate the culture of another nation completely.
Life and development of culture has various patterns.
The Culture of a creator and the culture of a borrower will continue to develop,
but in different directions. All of this is often complicated by differing conditions and types.
It is wrong to identify the merger of cultures with the assimilation of a foreign culture.
As a general rule, only a mixture of cultures is possible. However, despite this impossibility,

“All my illustrations on this zine are inspired by Interviews which I contact to my friends who live in South Korea, UK, and Germany. These interviews show me different perspective about this unusual situation after 2020. I think It is more personal thought or feeling compare with dairy news of person-on-the -street interviews which already edited by someone else. I can see (imagine) so much details of their life.

I would like to say Thank you to my friends again.”
