Park Min-jae

a shipping container yard in Busan, South Korea

Living in a shipping container yard in Busan provides Park Min-jae with a unique workspace and vantage point. His life as an ice road trucker means long periods of solitude, wrestling not only with the road but with his own thoughts. Those unsent letters tucked in a drawer witness his silent conversations, while his uncanny ability to sense emotions attunes him to the subtleties of human experience.
