Can You Hear the Wind Blow (Ttukbang-gil Series) captures the quiet resilience of nature within the city—a contrast to the harshness and complexity of modern urban life. In still black-and-white photographs, subtle movements such as the rustling of leaves, the flutter of a bird’s wings, the accumulation of snow, and the whisper of the wind are delicately portrayed, offering glimpses of hope through the gentle motion of nature.

These works are deeply imbued with Kim Jung-man’s signature tones and sensibilities—each frame layered with a profound sense of color and emotional depth that rises from the very foundation of the image. Together, they form a poignant body of work that offers solace during difficult times and conveys the quiet strength to endure and overcome adversity.
