About
It expresses the image of modern people longing for freedom in their fast-paced daily lives amid changes in the complex social structure. As the real situation is expressed with ties, briefcases, and cell phones, modern people's daily lives always require tension. Although escape from daily life is hard, it would be pleasant to fly somewhere in search of a dream and a hopeful tomorrow toward a free sky.
Modern people want to be free from the boundaries of their daily lives for a while. Through this appearance of modern people, we discovered our lost selves, looked back on ourselves, and expressed our dream of freedom at all times.
