KKT5 (Reactions Against Darkness 5):
An excerpt from the introduction of this year's 5th social responsibility concert. Do you realize? If there is no water, there is no life, and when food and drinkable water are gone, all other concerns will become meaningless. We couldn't change our habits before the climates changed, and now the climates are changing, and there's no turning back. Realize now that not watering girls and boys, not talking about air and water doesn't save water.

Entry text for the first personal exhibition titled "Al Pacino."
"Watching a movie is great. Watching a movie again and again is even better. When you watch it again, you not only watch the movie but also the details. That is, the characters and camera angles and locations, and so on and so forth. Why Al Pacino? I was watching 'And Justice For All' again, and suddenly I paused. To be in Al Pacino's place or to be against him? To play charisma or to respond to charisma?"
"I preferred to be against and continued or made it continue. I responded, and they responded."
