Note from the artist:

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this movie. Beneath the flashy action and style, the themes of overcoming shame and learning to forgive ourselves really stuck with me. As I grow older, I'm working hard to improve myself, and that's a worthy effort. But it's so important to learn from the past instead of letting it haunt us. I hope there's a sequel, and I hope all the demons can forgive themselves, and thus free themselves from Gwi-Ma!

For this piece, I wanted to pay respect to traditional Korean art while also nodding to the modern fashion vibe of HUNTR/X. I mixed in elements of Korean armor, bits of hanbok design, and nods to the girls' contemporary fashion. The end result is kind of a fantasy mash-up, but honestly, I love how it turned out.

The captions translate to:

'No more hiding, I'll be shining like I'm born to be'

and also,

'My voice without the lies, this is what it sounds like.'
