Marie Claire Korea
Happening of the School, 2009
Apr 2025
Happening of the School, a 2009 editorial feature for Marie Claire Korea, captures a youth-centric narrative set against the nostalgic backdrop of an academic environment. Photographed by Yoon Ji Yong, the series leans into an analogue aesthetic, utilizing natural light and deliberate film grain to evoke a candid, 2000s-era mood. The project features model Hamin Yu alongside a group of subjects in varied styling, ranging from formal navy uniforms to casual athletic apparel. Executed with a playful, documentary-style approach, the imagery transitions from interior classroom interactions to outdoor playground scenes. Techniques such as flash photography and golden hour lighting are employed to define the collection's warm, textured atmosphere, emphasizing an informal snapshot aesthetic that prioritizes narrative candour over traditional portraiture.
