EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Kim Kyung Hoon, we are transported to the banks of the Tumen river in Tumen, China. From the vantage point on the Chinese side, a group of North Koreans can be seen standing on the riverbank. The image captures a moment frozen in time on January 7,2016. The scene is characterized by an eerie sense of desolation and isolation. Drought and cold have taken their toll as the landscape appears dried up and covered in snow. The ground beneath their feet tells tales of hardship endured by these unrecognizable figures who traverse vast open spaces in search of better opportunities. The creative use of light highlights the silhouette-like forms against a backdrop that showcases both natural beauty and environmental challenges. With no people visible, one cannot help but wonder about their stories - what drives them to travel across such harsh terrain? What hopes or dreams do they carry with them? This photograph serves as a reminder of how weather conditions can shape not only our physical surroundings but also impact human lives and wildlife alike. It invites us to contemplate our own connection to nature's forces while offering glimpses into an unfamiliar world just beyond our reach.
