The flower was beautiful in full blossom, and stilled stood upright after its flower fallen down. It was a light like a sunset in my summer.

This summer, I felt particularly lethargic. The only thing I could do with my own will was to take a walk around my house. I just walked without a plan even in early mornings after sleepless nights, and pitch-black dawns. This summer captured in my photo album is mostly filled with Chinese trumpet vine near my house, crimson sunsets, and glistening surfaces of Hangang River. I often took a break during my walk to appreciate that hot and beautiful joy of summer.

Chinese trumpet vine is a compilation of my summer.

올해 여름은 유난히 무기력했다.
내 의지로 할 수 있는건 집 근처를 산책하는것이었다.
잠들지 못한 이른 아침이건, 깜깜한 새벽이든 발 닿는 대로 걸었다. 사진첩 속 올해의 여름은 집 근처 담장의 여름 꽃 능소화, 다홍빛 석양, 한강의 윤슬이 대부분이다.
산책하다 멈춰서 그 덥고 아름다운 맛을 자주 음미했다.
능소화는 내 여름의 집약이다.

만개해서 아릅답다가 낙화해도 꼿꼿한 것이 무기력한 나의 여름에 석양같은 빛이었다.

今年的夏天尤为感到疲惫。我能做主的就是在家附近散步。不论是无法入眠的清晨还是乌漆漆的凌晨，都可以闲庭信步。相册中呈现的今年夏天，大部分是家附近围墙上盛开的夏花凌霄花、粉红色的夕阳和汉江的水波。散步时，经常会停下来细品这炎热又美好的滋味。

凌霄花是我夏天的集合。

盛开后绽放美丽，凋零后也笔直坚挺，它在令我感到疲惫夏天中，如同一缕夕阳般的光芒。
