    Purpose of this performance

    The 20s : a journey to find approximate of our ego.

    Ego : A subject which could be proven by experience from daily life, and which experience everything.
    approximate: a number that is close to true value
    , Many people that i've met when i was a young adult myself, those who just became an adult, and those who are yet to be adolescent, had to go to colleges against their will and many had just begun to think about what they want to do.
    In order to find one's ego, one must try to know what he wants to do, and before everything, who 'I' am. From this process, one can faintly know what one's ego is. I might call this 'approximate of the ego'. I don't want my younger friends to repeat the same mistake as other 20s that I've been seeing, so I hope this performance and preparation of this performance will be a little help for my younger friends. While playing with their mate, and sharing their personal stories I truly wish that they would find themselves.

    I hope this performance and, preparation of this performance would be a motivation for understanding of our society or macroscopic world by looking at individual or in other word, microscopic world, to my younger friends. And through this understanding, I also hope my younger friends would understand themselves.

    We talk a lot but we can't define what each other's ego is. Can we really find our ego? If that is impossible, how about 'approximate of ego'? That is impossible as well? Maybe we could become adult?

    It is 'Sodong' which means 'a child 10 years or older'.

    Children at this age play easily with their peers.

    Maybe this is a routine repetition until we are adults?

    We also want to work like those children.

    Every time the project progresses, we hang out with the visiting artists and play, and make something.

    Children at that time are good to eat well and play well.

    We'll eat well and play well and show you a good play.
