The narrative of my first EP released five years ago illustrated my cross-cultural identity. Currently, five years after returning to Korea, I have realised that not many things are actually possible to be answered in binary terms of truth (1) or falsehood (0). This project is outlined in four different topics:
1. Gaslighting
2. Asian Women vs Women in Asia
3. The Freelancer, Never Feeling Free
4. AI: An Improver or An Imposter?

GasLighting
Gaslighting is commonly viewed as a negative term in psychological aspects these days. However, can we actually judge whether the influence of someone we love would be 'gaslighting' or leaves us feeling positively transformed ‘kongkakkji’?
If I find myself confused by changes imposed on me, would it be considered gaslighting? Conversely, if I find myself liking the changes in me, would it be connotated as ‘kongkakkji’?
*kongkakkji: meaning ‘beanpod’ in Korean, referring to 'seeing the world through rose-tinted glasses'.
Living as an Asian with the identity of a woman - if asked if you prefer living in another continent as a female asian or living as a woman in Asian countries, there would be interesting answers.
This is especially so when asked to those who have lived outside Asia and returned to their home country, also depending on how many years they have been back and had lived outside, moreover, if those who are aware of Asian countries include not only Korea but also many other countries.
Audio-Visual Performance Voices, microphones, real-time data
Whenever I am asked why I have not only focused on my music and sound, I always answer: no boundary in terms of the day-to-day routine and my social status gives me more anxiety which can ultimately hinder the inspiration of my creativity from being freed.
Is a freelancer sincerely more 'free'?

The advancement of artificial intelligence confuses many artists. Would it take away the jobs or broaden any professional opportunities?
Perhaps, the development of all industries is progressing because humanity is gradually seeking greater convenience. If AI technology makes life easier for humanity, can its industry still be deception for someone or progress for everyone?
