Description

It depicts the Buddhist philosophy that humans gain eternal life by transcending time by killing their own bodies. This is Kim Dong-ri’s representative work. It describes the process by which "I", who had rejected the ugly appearance of Deungsinbul, gradually approached it through spiritual exploration and identified with it.
