I'm a student with my sights set on the concert venue mixing room. Between classes, I shoot on film, collect vintage guitars, and spend way too many late nights in makeshift home studios chasing the perfect sound. This is where all of it lives.
Moments captured on both film and digital — each frame a deliberate choice.
Shot during the school's graduation trip to Osaks, Japan, I captured the beauty of nightscape in Japan. Shot on a Minox 35 AL camera, I shot this with hope in my mind
Shot during my yearly visit to my favorite fingerstyle artist Sungha Jung's concert, I did not expect this outcome from my little Minox 35 AL camera. This was not long after I got this camera, so I can say I was impressed.
This was shot at the Coldplay's Korean concert in 2025. I was extremely tired and wanted to go home quick, as I went near the exit towards the end of the show, where this shot was taken in my little Minox 35 AL camera.
Shot on my first trip to Tokyo, Japan, this photograph resembles how the current society looks. It shows a elderly man on a work suit going to a different direction from the bus which also takes people to work.
This photograph was shot before the end of production of the provia film. I shot this on my at-the-time fresh RicohFlex Dia, which I bought on the Japan trip I was leaving from on the photograph. I like this photo very much as it is a positive film
This photograph was shot on an ISO 50 film which is very dark in film standards. Thats why as the subway is dark, the overall photograph was exposed long, which made a trail of the person going through the frame.
Every guitar has a story. This one gets the spotlight.
I got this guitar when I was 15. This guitar is actually not the real Martin OM-42, however it is a Chinese knock-off. Even though it was made in China the sound is extremely good compared to others in the price range.
This guitar is the most valuable guitar in my line-up. I bought this guitar as the final destination as a guitar master. I want to bring this guitar to New York where I will eventually work as an audio engineer. I want to have this guitar as my life long companion and as a friend I will always admire.
The guitar looks quite different from the real Martin, though it has some better parts too. The bridge pin is made out of a highly precious material, the elephant's ivory.
I got this guitar only for school usage. I bought the guitar during when I used my main guitar as the school guitar. Because the main guitar was expensive, I needed to buy a cheaper guitar to put at school. As I play the most of the time at school, this was the perfect choice
I got the guitar signed in 2025, when I went to Seoul to meet my favorite band Chohap. I went there with my good friend and did some busking on the Hongdae streets. When I got the guitar signed, the members of the band was extremely cautious.
This guitar is meeting its end pretty soon. The bridge is buldged out extremely much so that it will get broken if it is not treated properly. I am planning to go to fix it, but there might be no hope.
This guitar was my first electric guitar. I was about to join a band and I needed a electric guitar since the band didn't allow acoustics. I go ahead and bought this guitar only because it looked pretty, and that choice was not wrong.
I use this guitar for almost everything. I use it as my main electric guitar even though I have a much better one because this guitar just sounds better for some reason. I use this guitar for every event I go where electric guitar is not present. I use this guitat to record most of the songs I play with the electric guitar. As I like Red Hot Chili Peppers a lot, I use this guitar as the cover of their songs too. This guitar is a powerhorse.
This guitar has a lot of stories. I met a one of the best teachers of my whole life in G8. He was called Mr. H and he was the English exam teacher of my new school. Surprisingly, he was a master at electric guitar. Which came to me as surprise as not many Koreans have that level of mastery. On my first day at the new school, he called me to his office and gave me a guitar. He heard that the new student knows how to play a guitar.
I sat down and played my favorite song. I was about to stop playing guitar at the time, and his compliment changed how I viewed the hobby. I wanted to be like him. After that, me and the teacher became best friends and talked about guitars all day, and while doing that, my guitar skills enhanced day by day.
One day, there was a terrifying news. The teacher was falsely accused of sex offending in school from a group of students. They went on court and finally, the teacher was expelled innocently. On the last day of his office, he handed me this guitar. He said "I will never forget you, and I see the future where you worship God with this guitar while having a successful career" I was moved and cried on spot.
After that, I started attending a local church. I brought the guitar to my church's worship team, and I started worshiping God. The teacher got the apologies that he deserved later, but never returned to our school. However, it will remain forever in my heart. Mr. H was the turning point in my guitar journey.
This guitar was my uncle's gift for me. When he came back to Korea for a once in a 2-3years meet with our family, he offered me a gift as he saw myself has grown and was proud. He is a factory owner at Guatemala, and has a large income. I was going to ask him a turntable, but I upped the price tag and went for the guitar I always wanted. It was a bit too much for the skill I had back then, but I aksed anyway.
However, my uncle was nochalant and bought me the guitar. From then, I started using the guitar like crazy. I started learning fingerstyle watching and copying songs from big artists like Sungha Jung. I was so obsessed with Sungha Jung indeed, I got a signature of him on the guitar. I installed a pickup which I verstailely used for my annual school festival performance. I even went to a big church to perform infront of 500 people.
Small mechanical companions, a digital workhorse, and the glass that shapes every frame.
A pocket-sized film companion built for everyday wandering. I have this camera in my pocket at all times and is a go-to for all my street photography.
A square-format, waist-level way of slowing down. This camera is for special occasions when I go on a trip with my friends or a portrait machine for some times.
A compact rangefinder with a 50mm point of view. I use this camera for occasions when I need a 50mm from a film and when I need a rangefinder.
The dependable full-frame body in the collection. This camera is cruicial. The camera is the only digital I own and it helps me get wedding or event photos with burst mode.
For the images that exist as objects straight away. This one is special and flashy at the same time. My oldest memories are formed with this camera with my childhood.
This is the most verstaile lens that I could shoot weddings and events with one go
This one is for occasional telephoto useage like bird spotting.
This lens if for portrait and for portrait only. The portrait out of this lens is just phenomenoal

"I don't just want to work in audio — I need to. It's the only thing I've ever been obsessed with."
I'm a student, which means I spend most of my days in classes and most of my nights in headphones, studying. I've been tunning my speaker setup since I was sixteen. I wired my Edifier speakers into what some will say impossible. This obsession is truly unforgetable, and I still do.
Every mix I make is a desperate attempt to get closer to the thing I hear in my head. I study the cardioid patterns of microphones the way some people study scripture. I lose hours to plugin chains and DAW routing. I genuinely, unashamedly, cannot imagine doing anything else.
The work below is raw and honest. It represents where my desperate mind is located and feeled. But the trajectory is clear, and the obsession isn't going anywhere.
This cover is a cover of Sungha Jung's cover of John Mayer's Gravity. I deeply admire both artists, so I was very excited when Sungha Jung covered John Mayer. I quickly copied it and practiced it until I got this.
This song is a song I learnt during my yearly visit to Sungha Jung's concert, where he played it live. I went home from that concer and kept practicing until I did it live as shown in the video.
Recorded at my home studio. This tune is my first ever fully written original song. I admire this song more than any I made after the first.
