When the Trees Sway, the Heart Stirs

In Jeongneung Valley, Seoul, a place teetering on the cusp of rapid redevelopment, the present and future coexist in an unusual harmony. As bulldozers remain dormant and progress has yet to fully claim the area, residents and their past lives intertwine with the impending changes that seem almost inevitable. The valley becomes a canvas for stories told through abandoned photographs, meticulously cultivated fields, lovingly repaired homes, and memories deeply ingrained in familiar landscapes. These relics of life offer a glimpse into a community's history, highlighting both their resilience and the bittersweet nature of change as progress looms just over the horizon.
