...

 

normal but not normal

 

 

 

 

For me, or for normalstory, there is no competitor.

 

Not the star-house, bean-house style cafés,

not the clothing shops in Sinsa-dong or Cheongdam-dong showing off their lavish décor,

not the famous galleries that hold their heads high and shout their erudition—

 

none of them are competitors of mine, or of normalstory.

 

 

 

I am

small,

 

and

also lacking.

 

Living a hard life, I do not dream of climbing social ranks.

I don't struggle to become a dragon rising from a creek.

I just,

 

want to be a single, modest lotus flower that stirs your heart.
