This year,

I often dream.

During my days in London, happiness was within reach.

Real life seemed beautifully illusory,

Yet echoes of childhood whispered, "You are not worthy."



Happiness and worry, like gears, endlessly alternate,

Uncertain when they will cease.

But fortunately, I have become braver.

I am still in pursuit of that light illuminating life,

Step by step



This video was created using Cinema 4D (C4D).

It shows a 3D space filled with statues, each telling a unique story. In this narrative, an eternal law states that every caterpillar eventually transforms into a beautiful butterfly. However, one individual, upon undergoing his own metamorphosis, realizes that his exquisite wings are merely ornamental. Despite his beauty, he feels trapped by it. He is often confined by his own reality. In truth, no butterfly with wings is unable to fly. Yet, in his dreams, even without wings, he is the king who rules the world.



We often compare life to a butterfly emerging from a cocoon, believing that after enduring hardships, we will finally spread our wings and soar, achieving the success we've always dreamed of. But does having wings truly guarantee success in life? I’ve pondered this question for a long time, and one thing I know for sure is this: if you don’t try, you will never attain the success you desire—it will remain nothing more than a dream. The choice is always in your hands.
