As part of a long-term ongoing collection of capital cities around the world, Seoul Love Letter is a tribute and my interpretation of South Korea. I have lived in this city since 2011 and during those years I have taken so many photos of the city, but finding the perfect shot was extremely difficult. This picture was taken on the first sunrise of 2000, it is customary to spend the new year looking at the new sunrise. I climbed Inwangsan mountain a few hours before sunset, in freezing weather to get this beautiful shot (cold air makes for a clearer atmosphere).

Something that sets this piece apart from my other love letters is that usually the pieces are a lot busier, but this one has just the right amount of movement and grace. A darker part of this piece is the corporate culture that has taken over the entire country, which is why I decided to include the top 20 chaebol or mega-corporations that control life in South Korea, it's like taking a page from a cyberpunk story.
