SaGe
Ryu, DongHyeok

I came to Jeju to rest—

but the land kept speaking.

 

What I saw first was beauty:

the glittering leaves, the silent ridges,

the sea breathing beyond the edge of vision.

 

But as I wandered deeper,

I saw what was fading—

forests cleared, coastlines re-shaped,

the green turning into memory.

 

This work is not just about nature’s splendor,

but the weight of its disappearance.

Each frame holds what still breathes,

and what we risk losing.

 

I wanted these images to ask:

How long can we protect what we love?

And before it’s too late—

what will we choose to remember?
