Description and Table of Contents

Description

Kyungwoo Chun, born in Korea in 1969 and now based in Germany, is known for his poetically blurred long exposure photographic portraits. Chun's last name means "thousand," and derives from a Chinese general who emigrated to Korea 407 years ago. For this project, Chun photographed thousands of people in China with his last name.
