Feet firmly planted amid breaking waves on the seashore, a fisherman powerfully flings his net into the waters in the early morning of Dec. 22 at Yeomjeon Beach in Gangneung, Gangwon Province. Against the rising golden sun, also being flung are perhaps the fisherman's hopes for a good catch in a full net. In Korea, they say, 'To judge a man, look at his back.' The stout silhouette of the fisherman seems to speak of layers of honest labor, wishes harbored and disappointments swallowed. Not to be deterred, the fisherman will return to his toil the following day, as too, so will we ― after two years of the COVID-19 pandemic ― to hold strong in 2022. Welcome to the New Year.
