Puri 5 – SPoRA
Leave, Arrive and Leave again.
Remain the journey as trace of History
Leave again as dandelion spore
Look at the it’s blossom
Look at the it’s flying away again
We leave again
And arrive.
떠나고, 도착하고 또 떠나는.
우리의 여정을 역사의 흔적처럼 남기며
민들레 홀씨처럼 또 떠난다.
홀씨가 자라 피우는 꽃을 보며
그리고 또 떠나는 홀씨를 보며
우리는 떠나고 또 정착한다.
