Mugg: Just Draw Anything! is the first exhibition of the drawing collective Mugg and presents their initial approach to drawing. Since the earliest human drawings, other media inevitably followed, yet among all images, drawing remains the most vital. The motto “Just Draw Anything” emphasizes a steady and persistent practice of this fundamental act.

Eoseoonira (A Quiet Invitation to Enter)
Eoseoonira is a quiet record of a woman’s twenties, shaped by a sensitivity often spoken of as that of a shaman-to-be. Moving between intuition, ritual, and reality, she struggles to understand what it means to carry something she did not choose.

읽기 reading 讀
Reading has long maintained a relatively one-directional structure. Authors compose texts within a fixed framework of reading, and readers follow them in a consistent, habitual way. 〈읽기 reading 讀〉 is a book that experiments with breaking away from this rigid structure by visualizing the content of text as the “form of reading” itself. Through short passages that remain comfortably readable, it seeks to reawaken an awareness of the act of reading itself.

바른생활 체 Barun Life Typeface
A typographic project based on the dual meaning of the Korean word “che,” referring both to a typeface and the notion of “pretending to be proper.”
Following the conventions of “correct” handwriting, the letterforms shift and adapt in response to a destabilized grid system, reflecting the tension between order and deviation.

Корейцы, Корё сарам
〈Корейцы, Корё сарам〉 is a photographic exhibition that explores the Korean diaspora known as Корейцы—ethnic Koreans who were displaced to Central Asia during the Soviet era. Through fragmented self-portraits, the work reflects the tension of identity and the disorientation of diaspora, visualizing an internal state shaped by displacement and historical rupture.

Dreaming Conversation
〈Dreaming Conversation〉 is a poster reinterpreting the song “Dream Conversation” by Bum-yong Lee and Myung-hoon Han, developed in collaboration with fellow designer Hyungmin Kim. As the song takes the form of a duet in dialogue, the work reflects on a world shaped by love—not only between family or lovers, but also extending to care for the marginalized. To express the process of receiving and transmitting love, a heart-shaped flag was created and staged as a relay performance.
Love Massacre (愛殺)
〈Love Massacre (愛殺)〉 explores the moment in which love and killing converge and become entangled. Rather than separating good and evil, or love and violence, the film approaches this tension through an Eastern perspective that embraces their coexistence.
Hangeul in Another Time
〈Hangeul in Another Time〉 begins from the observation that Hangeul was traditionally written vertically using brush and ink. The project poses the question: How might Hangeul have evolved if horizontal writing had developed while still using a brush? By imagining Hangeul within an alternative temporal context, it visualizes its potential forms under constraints of specific tools and writing directions, while preserving its structural principles and the material qualities of brush and ink.
Die Zauberflöte
〈Die Zauberflöte〉 is a staging of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s opera, long celebrated for its enduring popularity. The Queen of the Night, its iconic character, is prominently positioned at the center, and the typography is structured through a symmetrical layout.
