Artist HONG Haksoon brings to life the vibrant world of Wink Tokki World, a fantastical universe inhabited by characters who live in harmony with one another and the natural world. Through bold murals, playful drawings, and animated films, his work shares stories of intergalactic friendship, imagination, and joyful coexistence. Together, the two artists transform the gallery into an immersive forest playground—an environment where visitors can climb, observe, interact, and reflect. Like a forest that gently whispers its stories, Whispers of the Forest invites everyone to imagine a world where all beings belong, thrive, and grow together.

In his drunken voice, he leaves strange remarks, “Don’t become like your aunt.” Juyeon discovers the story of her aunt whose existence was systematically erased from the family history - and the tragic suicide that may have been linked to dating violence, unrecorded and unacknowledged simply because the victim was female. Stunned by the family secret, she starts chasing the traces of her aunt, who has a striking resemblance to her. Juyeon breaks the suffocating silence and recreates her aunt’s lost voice through animation.
