OVERVIEW

OVERVIEW

A project that translates one person's passage through emotional collapse into the ecosystem of a K-pop concept album. A single autobiographical experience is distributed across three speakers (Lee Doha, Seo Jihan, Baek Ian) and reconstructed as a three-part narrative arc titled UNDERTOW. The present work corresponds to Part 1, (Paransung, "Sound of Waves"), which holds the causes of collapse, the loss of self, and the beginning of flight.

The project sits at two intersections at once. As a portfolio piece, it asks what kind of work emerges when one person's gaze, rather than a divided industry pipeline, shapes a unified K-pop world. As a method experiment, it asks where AI belongs inside a creative practice as a tool that proposes candidates, not a tool that decides. The work leaves room for the listener, the viewer, and the reader to enter the world through their own experience.

The work is held inside the layered media of a K-pop album: music, lyrics, teaser images, concept films, photobook, and object merchandise. This page is dedicated to the teaser image series of the project.
