It was the first Korean animation to be nominated for the Best Animated Short Film at the American Academy Awards and received the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Award at the 2020 Korea Content Awards.

'Origin' explores the duality of life and asks, "Where did we come from, and where are we going?" It was first introduced at the 2022 Frieze Seoul event in the UK, attracting significant attention.
