A red apple as red as the sun and shining like a jewel
Waiting, waiting, waiting again

Children wait for red apples with excitement.
Children's waiting time is not boring.
As if the world were waiting with the children
Children's time flows in nature and lovely scenery.
The time of excitement turns the apples red.

The Earth is a child walking slowly while listening to the stories of grass, flowers and trees,
Jiho is a kid who likes fast-paced running.

The two children are depicted at different speeds in the beginning of the picture book.
However, the hearts of Jiho and Earth, who are waiting for the red apple, are no different.
On the roof of a house, in a tree, at a bus stop in the countryside, even by a winter river
Slowly, and with a clear and shining face
We wait for the red apple together.

Oh! It's a red apple!

The day the red apples finally ripened!
I see a red apple over there.
Ji-gu and Ji-ho run towards the red apple.
As Earth runs down the stairs excitedly, he hears his grandfather's voice in his ear.

“Carrots...where were the carrots?”

The Earth cannot do without hearing the voice of the grandfather.
Why is it that the carrots that are visible to the Earth's eyes are not visible to Grandpa's eyes?
I found a carrot for my grandfather,
Can Earth go eat apples now?
But then, I hear my grandmother's voice from inside the room.
Jiho is already running that far.
Can Earth eat red apples?

So what if it's slow?
How about fast?
We wait together
We will eat red apples together.

Each child has his or her own personality.
There are children who pay attention to their surroundings and care about them, like the Earth.
There are also cute, mischievous kids like his younger brother Jiho who go straight towards their goals.
Adults worry about children's differences only from an adult perspective,
All children are growing up with their own individual personalities and minds.
The rural scenery, old furniture in the house, and the cat in the yard, contained in the picture book,
The appearance of old, cracked walls, etc.
We warmly embrace the two children who are each moving forward in their own ways.


That's how you create the reader's attention.

The aesthetics of age and slowness captured with a film camera.
A picture book filled with children's smiles, sparkling with the light of memories.

The gaze of artist Gahee, who has been capturing children's appearances with a film camera for a long time
The entire picture book is lovingly presented.

A large cross-section of colored paper, created in a realistic landscape, is collaged with the rich colors of nature and the smiles of children, creating a scene that is almost like a performance.

The author shared stories with the children and filmed the film.

The Korean images in the photo, such as the floorboards, mother-of-pearl cabinets, wooden walls, and the grandmother, make us feel the beauty of old things.
The moment of looking back at this landscape that still exists in the rapidly changing city and modern society passes slowly.

The smiles of two growing children sparkle in the aesthetics of age and slowness.

Red as the sun, shining like a jewel.
