Lim Hyunsik shared, “Actually, I went through a slump around 2019~2020. I couldn’t work well and was in an unstable state. It’s as if I was losing myself little by little. That’s when I contacted the director (Kwon Jinmo) and said I wanted to go diving. I had been putting it off because I was busy, but thanks to the director, I finally had the opportunityto do so. The conversations we had while spending time as a crew led to this big project.”

When asked about the appeal of the sea and diving, Lim Hyunsik explained, “I’ve just always loved the sea since I was little. Just looking at it brings peace of mind. It makes me think a lot about myself. Especially when I’m having a hard time, when I’m losing myself little by little. Looking at the sea helps me rediscover my fading dreams and becoming a complete version of myself again. When I first got into the water, I felt comfortable. Rather,  I felt like I was breathing more than when I was outside. I love how it makes me focus only on my breathing, almost like meditating.”
