Others: According to Korean belief, inyeon (인연) is a red string of fate that binds people across lifetimes. Every encounter is said to be the result of countless past connections, like how a lover from a past life may be reborn as one’s child in the next—love transformed, but never lost. This piece is a meditation on the inyeon between parent and child: an enduring bond that forms before words, before memory, before a child even opens their eyes.
