Rather than focusing directly on the conflict, the piece gently portrays the struggles of an ordinary family trying to endure the hardships of wartime through a fairy tale-like lens. Told through the innocent eyes of a young girl named Dallae, the story highlights the cruel impact of war on children. Expressed entirely through hand-manipulated puppetry, the performance received acclaim, including an award at the Tolosa International Puppetry Festival in Titirijai, Spain.

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.
