「Lost chingu」  Yang Seungwoo

---

仲間が一人死んだ。首吊り自殺だった。
奴が死んでも何ひとつ変わったことはない。
仲間達はもう奴のことを忘れていく。
そして俺も奴のことを忘れていく。
奴の顔が見たくて写真を探してみた。
一枚もなかった。
自分が大事だと思っている仲間だったのに。
奴らを撮り始めた。
自分のまわりを夢中で撮った。
もう失われないように,作品の中に閉じ込めてしまおうと。
そしたら自分が見えて来た。。。。
まじめとは言えないけれどそれなりに
格好良い人生を歩んで行く彼等が大好きだ。

A friend of mine lost his life.
He hanged himself to death.
My friends are so quick to forget him.
I, too, am moving on without him.I wanted to see his face,
so I looked for a picture.
I could not find a single one.
Even though he was a very good friend of mine.
I started taking photos of my friends.
I became obsessed with taking pictures of my surroundings.
I did not want to lose any more than I lost already,
I wanted to lock them into my works.
That has become a way to find myself...
I would not call them studious by any means,
but I admire their ways of approaching life.
They are cool by their own standards.
