The closest in the world
A story of two people

There are two people in the world who are closest to each other.
Those two people could be lovers or a married couple, parents and children, brothers or sisters, or close friends.
Because the two are so close, they often forget how much they mean to each other.
It's as if we don't realize that water and air are inseparable from us because they are always by our side.
If something happens between the two of them and they are far apart or have long-term separation, or their feelings are damaged, or they break up completely, only then do they begin to think about and realize the difference in their relationship.


"Two People" contains the author's wish that countless "two people" in the world will deeply explore and understand their relationships with each other, and nurture them into better relationships.
Through a metaphor that leads to deep thought, we can explore the meaning that lies between two precious people.


What does it mean for two people to live together?

Living together is easier when you're together, and harder when you're together.
The two people become the keys that open each other's hearts that are tightly closed like a lock, and they become two islands that rely on each other and overcome the winds that blow on the rough sea of ​​the world.
However, keys sometimes get lost and locks sometimes get stuck, which is a hassle.
Sometimes two people are like day and night, unable to meet each other, and even if one wheel is fine, they can no longer run together because the other tire is flat.


The two are together, but also separate.
The two windswept islands each have their own volcanoes, waterfalls and valleys.
The windows facing each other appear to show the same view, but in reality they show two different views.
Still, the two are together.
We also create something new by combining the different aspects of each other.
Like yellow and blue, which create the colors of a field that are warm and serious, yet fun and cool when together, and like the front and back covers of a book that are tightly intertwined to contain the two's endless stories.

Poetic expressions unfold in every scene

“Two People” is filled with metaphors that sparkle like poetry in every scene.
For example, the first scene shows two people wearing halves of their clothes, buttoned together to form a set.
This picture may remind some of the imperfection of each person, while others of the miracle of two different people becoming one.
Someone else might also notice two buttons that go with both halves of the outfit.
You might be lost in thought as you look at the different expressions on each button.


The author portrays deep thoughts about relationships while leaving room for readers to fill in their own imaginations.
It encourages readers to imagine what lies behind the picture and explore the meaning of the text.
"Two People" is a picture book created by two people: the author and the reader.
With this book, why not take some time to reflect on the relationship between 'two people' - yourself and someone else?
