[251224] Worth a shot.. Grateful Eve My first Christmas Eve in Jakarta.Even in the air of an unfamiliar city, my heart felt strangely calm, and between the sparkling lights, I could feel the end of the year quietly coming closer. I’m glad I have something to do. Time to write the report. Grateful. 더보기
[251223] Year End Party at CGV The townhall called “The Premiere: The Year Ahead” was about the future, but my mind stayed with the past for a while. We saw numbers like media impressions and article counts, and the results looked great. But I remembered the people and moments behind those numbers even more. I also liked how the session moved from work talks to a movie time. It reminded me that doing well at work is not only.. 더보기
[251221] 二十年后的重逢 - 我的北京室友 差不多二十年后(准确地说,是十九年?)我再次见到了 Ruth,而且是在她的国家, Indonesia。这是一次温暖的重逢。 时间过去了很久,但她依然亲切、温暖,一点都没有变。 她是那种让我很想成为的那种人。 尽管时间过去了这么久,她还是记得我们所有的回忆。 那时候的 Ruth,已经比我成熟得多了。(事实上,她确实是比我大不少的姐姐,哈哈。- 她的亲妹妹和我有不少相像的地方。听说她现在住在新加坡。要是以后有机会,真想和她见一面。话说回来,新加坡这么近,不知道我什么时候能去看看。) 我想吃的烤鸭店(The Duck King),Ruth 特地陪我一起来。 我们聊着以前的回忆,点了一只北京烤鸭。很好吃,只是稍微咸了一点。 我现在还能联系上的韩国朋友,只有 Doyeon 哥哥一个人。所以至少也把 Ruth 的近况转达给了他。其他韩国朋友都联系不上,有点可惜。 对了,Ruth .. 더보기
[Radiohead] No Surprises - Get me out of here Sometimes it feels like I’m a troublemaker everywhere I go.. A heart that's full up like a landfill A job that slowly kills you Bruises that won't heal You looks so tired, unhappy Bring down the government They don't, they don't speak for us I'll take a quiet life A handshake of carbon monoxide And no alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises Silent, .. 더보기
[251214] Facts and memory rarely align Yesterday marked two weeks since I arrived in Jakarta, and I found myself filming an advertisement in a place that was still unfamiliar to me. The reality of that day and the version I now carry in my memory may already be different, but in the end, what will remain for me is this record. The cameras were rolling, directions were flying back and forth in different languages, and the day moved f.. 더보기
[Sentimental Value, 2025] Tenderness is the new punk 가족이라는 이름 아래에서 우리는 생각보다 훨씬 다르고, 또 생각보다 훨씬 닮아 있어. 다르다고 믿고 싶고, 솔직히는 그렇게 남아 있고 싶은데, 이해라는 건 늘 엉뚱하게도 가장 비슷한 데서 시작돼. 내가 제일 인정하고 싶지 않은 내 모습이 상대에게서 불쑥 튀어나올 때, 그제야 아, 우리가 결국 비슷한 데서 와 있구나 싶은 거지. 트리에 감독은 각자 자기 인생을 살아온 사람들을 ‘가족’이라는 이름으로 한 집 안에 불러들여. 일부러 말로 크게 설명하거나 감정을 요란하게 드러내진 않아. 그냥 거기 함께 있고, 말로 꺼내지 않은 외로움들이 방 안에 존재하듯 떠다니는 거야. 서로를 직접적으로 건드리지 않으면서, 이상하게도 조금씩 스며들어 가는 느낌. 그래서 영화 속에선 다 흩어져 있던 삶들이 어느새 같은 쪽.. 더보기
[251119] Driving the East Coast: Donghae → Yangyang → Sokcho on Route 7 Even though the trip came together at the last minute, the weather, the hotel—everything was just right. Everywhere we visited—including Naksansa Temple and Seoraksan—was wonderful, but the hotel view stood out the most. We couldn’t make it to Jeongdongjin because I wasn’t feeling well, so that will have to wait for another trip. 더보기
[251117] International Driving Permit / Opportunity cost Done in 5 minutes. Really easy and straightforward. I don’t think I’ll need to drive at my destination.. Anyway, the moment I lose confidence in myself, the whole world seems to turn against me. I want to do well, and I want to protect what matters, yet that very desire holds me back—fearful that I might fail at both. 'Opportunity cost' works the same way. You can only understand it after the .. 더보기
