Physical album design for singer-songwriter Xeuda.
The cipher-like heart-shaped lettering represents the journey of one seeking love. Though the path can be dizzying and disorienting, the footprints he leaves behind gradually form a gentle rhythm that draws the shape of love.

<푸른 눈동자 속에> 포스터
The poster for In the Blue Eyes captures a poignant journey toward purity and love. This quest is distilled into a minimalist yet powerful visual language, using concise imagery to evoke profound emotional depth.
iljjimasio
‘iljjimasio’ means ‘do not read’ in Korean. This work starts with the experience of reading something. There were experiences of intentionally not reading, passing by, or pretending to read. Based on these methods, I was asked what format is for ‘reading well’, and then I thought that one way was to taboo ‘DO NOT READ’ at all. This is an experiment that visualizes the taboo command and how to make something read in contrast to the title.

this is not a chair
This graphic identety was created for Garagegage’s solo exhibition at the MUT Museum in Seoul. The brief was to convey the unique qualities of the new product, Chair 11 — its sense of weightlessness and lightness, expressed both through the design itself and the promotional photography. The composition allows the poster to be rotated and displayed from any angle. This interactive approach encourages viewers to engage with the design and experience, echoing its airy and gravity-defying character.

<항아리> 포스터
The poster for The Jar centers on a red vessel shattered into three distinct fragments. Each shard is shaped into the characters “Hang(항)”, “A(아)”, and “Ri(리)”. While the three syllables are completely severed from one another, the individual strokes within each character cling together with a loose, flimsy desperation.
The design mocks the characters’ absurdity; though they are all equally broken, they operate under the pathetic delusion of being whole.

<맹인과 그를 사랑한 여자> 포스터
The poster for The Blind Man and the Woman Who Loved Him exposes the facade of a fractured reality. While the characters perform a charade of happiness and mutual deception, their seemingly intact daily lives are actually shattered and warped beyond recognition. The design visualizes this underlying decay, illustrating an existence that has been splintered into unrecognizable pieces. By contrasting the outward act of normalcy with a distorted internal logic, the poster captures the tragic irony.

When Clouds Appear in a Clear Sky
‘When Clouds Appear in a Clear Sky’ explores the poetic relationship between sky, cloud, and human perception through the landscape of Seoul. Observed above the city’s layered skyline, drifting clouds become quiet subjects of contemplation—revealing changing light, fleeting emotion, and subtle rhythms of nature within urban life. Through this gaze, the work reflects on inner stillness, unconscious values, and the gentle comfort nature quietly offers to the soul.

Big Money.
“I make money in casinos,” he said, voice flat. “Not luck. Systems.” The hostess from Busan didn’t flinch. She’d seen the type. Expensive jacket. Dead eyes. “Took my wife to Tetsuya’s. Nine hundred bucks,” he said. “Made three grand back at The Star before the valet even pulled up.” He tapped his temple. “Patterns. Vibes. I got five systems. One always hits.” She poured his soju. Quiet. He studied her like a game he already won. “You ever seen someone win big?” he asked. She smiled.
