In-between

On the 11th of March 2013, North Korea declared invalid the armistice agreement between South and North Korea. Baengnyeong Island is located near the Northern
Limit Line, the sea border that separates the South and North Korea. It was the first place to come under attack.

43 people were invited from Baengnyeong Island to express, in a brief message, something about their everyday lives that they would like to share with the rest of Korea.
The participants include storeowners, high school students, housewives, passersby, etc. These residents translated their messages into written symbols and then into movements.
The video shows concurrently distinct images from the daily life in the island.
