Kaychae's Adventure
Description
Book Introduction
Is this a true story about a photographer or an adventurer's novel?
A collection of essays by photographer K.Chae, who has been active all over the world with his unique and colorful photos, has been published.
His adventures unfold as he plunges into the harsh nature and unfamiliar world of life to capture a single photograph he wants to capture.
This is a storybook composed solely of text, not the typical(?) photo essay.
His talkativeness, which he has constantly expressed his thoughts about the world through social media, explodes into delicious sentences as he runs through the concise pages of the book.
Contrary to popular belief, the author, who has been working as a street photographer and spends about half of the year abroad, has been far from a romantic photo journey.
Because a thrilling, precarious, and sometimes dangerous adventure awaited him.
The author, who always leaves the place to the 'wind' of the place even though he does thorough research before leaving, invested six months in writing and revising countless sentences to extract the adventure story from his head.
If you read the adventures that stretch from the Amazon and West Africa, to the Galapagos and Sudan, to the South and North Poles, the Indian Ocean and Finland, you will be hard-pressed to nod in agreement if you call author K-Chae the "Korean Sinbad."
Readers who pick up 'The Adventures of Sinbad', or rather 'The Adventures of Kaychai', can enjoy a thrilling roller coaster-like adventure without getting a single dirt on their shoes, a single bead of sweat on their forehead, or a single mosquito bite on their back.
How about sitting in the corner of the room, preparing some popcorn and cola or beer, and flipping through the bookshelf as if watching a movie on Netflix?

Publisher's Review
I can't believe it.
Immersed in the photographer's prose without a single photograph...
People say.
The author's courage is amazing.
How did you come up with the idea of going to such places?
In fact, K-Chae is a cowardly photographer.
But how did I end up on this adventure?
Wherever I went, people were curious and asked questions.
“Why on earth did you come here?” Because this is a place where no one else would have any reason to come.
The photo that Kechae wanted was right there in that place.
I traveled only for the sake of taking pictures.
It's not that I took pictures because I wanted to travel.
The reason for the trip was photography.
If he went somewhere, it was only to take pictures.
In an era where travel has become commonplace.
Photos have become more common these days.
Finding places that still deserve to be photographed.
Numerous photos have been presented to the world.
Although I have exhibited and published books, I have never properly explained the process by which these photographs were created.
There were many moments that could not be shown in photos, many stories that could not be captured in photos.
This book has come out.
A photographer's book without a single photograph, the very existence of this book is an adventure.
The author wanted to vividly convey his adventures only through writing.
It's a book without a single picture, but after you finish reading it, the pictures will come to mind.
In that sense, “K-Chae’s Adventure” is clearly a photographer’s book.
A photographer's travelogue, or rather, an unforgettable adventure, unfolds now!
