They may be animals such as a lion or alligators, a plant, a region’s climate or some other strange natural phenomenon.

They are a part of an unknown world, a mirror reflecting this world, and something other than ourselves—like sleep resembling death which is inherently a part of us but is also a very remote, perpetual force outside of ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNam Jin-Woo\u003c\/strong\u003e was born in Chonju, Chonbuk Province, in 1960.
