My name is Jee Hei. Born in South Korea, adopted then raised in the States and have been living in Finland for over a year. Let's drink a beer and discuss life's secrets while our dinner burns. It's ok, we've got bread. If not in our pantry, leipäteksteissämme.

20.1-17.6 || Thank You for the Music (KIASMA)
Music speaks directly to our emotions. Hearing a song can take us back in time. We copy the dress of our idols, our mood changes with music. Thank You for the Music – How Music Moves Us is an exhibition on how the experiences of listening to music, watching music videos or going to a concert can appear in the life and work of an artist, a music lover, a fan.

After 25 years, I finally have something to do on Valentines day. While I’m excited to go to this debate, I’m beginning to have a bad feeling about my perpetual residency in singledom. On the upside, it’s called Friendship day in Finland so the realization that I’ve acquired the regular habit of eating chips for dinner doesn’t evoke self-deprecation quite as fast as if it were Valentines day. This new spin on the holiday’s name is really enabling my bad eating habits.
