North Korean Military Defectors for the WSJ

When North Korea decided to send its troops to Ukraine to help the Russian Army, the Wall Street Journal interviewed two ex-military defectors about this strategy. I was assigned to portray them. The full story written by Dasl Yoon is available here. Below are two of my portraits.

Testing the Hasselblad X1d2

I finally invested in a medium format digital camera. I have been using the Fuji GFX for some campaign shoot but my choice finally went towards the Hasselblad X1d2 as I found the quality of the colors amazing and the size was much smaller. I went on a small testing tour with it as I soon as I received it with neighbour and model Jin. Please see some of the photos here.
