There are people who can pull off any outfit in their own style. There are also those whose unique colors clearly stand out no matter what they do. Some people express their own thoughts and opinions even after seeing the same thing, and others live their authentic lives wherever they are. This is because they have excellent digestive ability.

I want to be a person with good digestive ability too. Someone who, when encountering new information, accepts it moderately without being completely swept away and gradually makes it their own. Someone who absorbs new environments and new things while simultaneously digesting and reinterpreting them in their own way. Someone who thoroughly chews on anything and rebirths it in their own style. I want to be a person who, wherever I am and whatever I do, people say, "She lives like Kim Gyurim."

Now that I think about it, a few people come to mind. Designer A, who has quite a strong personal color, works across genres, and even when looking at different works, that person strangely comes to mind. Writer B often contributes to various magazines, and even if you just read anything, you can instantly recognize him by his unique humorous writing style. If you look up the author’s name just to be sure, 100 times out of 100, it’s that writer. I really like people who have such distinct colors. When I hear that they have taken on a new project, I become very curious about their next creation.

If people were colors, I would want to be someone who colors the surroundings with my own color rather than being dyed by the surroundings. To do that, I must know better than anyone else what my color is and what my most authentic self looks like. I want to delve deepest into myself, understand and protect my unique color and domain well. Wherever, whenever, and whatever I do, I hope to slowly digest things in my own style. Today, tomorrow, there, here, in the past, and in the future, I want to live by creating my own authentic self and digesting various experiences in my own way.
