Submission by Byeongbeom Kim:
"Photography started as curiosity and turned into obsession. My journey began during the COVID lockdown when I picked up Magnum Contact Sheets at a local library. That book changed everything—it pushed me to take photography seriously.
Over the past 8 years, I’ve immersed myself in street photography, studying the works of Harry Gruyaert, Joel Meyerowitz, Martin Parr, and Lee Friedlander. I spent countless hours in libraries flipping through photobooks, learning through trial and error, and refining my way of seeing.
Now, my camera is always with me. I document life as it happens—raw, unscripted, sometimes humorous, sometimes unexpected. I look for the chaos, the quiet, the fleeting moments that would otherwise disappear.
This portfolio is a collection of my best work from the last eight years, how I see the world, frame by frame".
