Ku Hye Sun's Tango

Tango. We were one pair who were dancing the tango although Jong Woon’s feet and mine weren’t in step. We kept dancing, even if we were stepping on each other’s feet and enduring pain; hence, our feet already had too many scars.

Here is the direct link to the exhibition: Tango on Gmarket. The slideshow will begin as soon as the page loads.
