I dedicate this work to Michael Jackson who is my one and only King of Pop. I wore a mask of MJ and walked around the places, such as Leeum, the Samsung Museum of Art, the park near my house, Sukchon Lake where Rubber Duck (by Florentijn Hofman) was in, and Museum San, from spring to winter. By wearing the mask of Michael Jackson, I wanted to bring back the presence of him. Also adding the lyrics from one of my favorite Michael's songs: You are not alone, gives a sense of my feelings toward him. He was always there for me whenever I felt lonely and isolated.
