About this artwork
This work portrays the reality of young adults who struggle to become independent. The grown child, still held as if sharing one body with the parent, covers their face with both hands and weeps. Meanwhile, the parent’s hands wrapped around the child carry a warmth filled with love and sorrow—a complex blend of helpless comfort and the heavy responsibility that love demands, lingering at their fingertips.
The so-called “kangaroo tribe”—a Korean… term referring to adults who remain financially dependent on their parents—should not be an object of ridicule. They are another face of ourselves, living within the structures that contemporary Korean society has created—an issue the community must confront together.
Instead of blaming or criticizing individuals, it is time to ask what has made us all so burdened, exhausted, and unstable. Perhaps true independence is not a matter of standing up alone, but of building the conditions that prevent us from collapsing in the first place.
A painter by profession, Jungwan Chae boldly brings his military background to life. He employs anonymized, bald figures in suits to critique society, utilizing simple yet impactful beans to depict modern social realities. His art passionately expresses individual and collective dissatisfaction, stimulating dialogue about societal issues.
