I happened to see someone's panty while walking down the street.

a ghost lingering on the display
The body was lifted from the accident scene, and the image fell from reality.
Dust and debris from the crash site were brushed off.
It was kept unburied as a sterilized specimen.
The image is now even and flat.
It is stacked in a drawer to be browsed and occasionally captured again by the gaze of others.
this kind of shame 2
This kind of shame may be easier to empathize with than a torn body.

Aftereffects
1. archive
For her, this incident didn‘t linger as a mere accident; it had other aftereffects. The very private area, her red „panty“ was published several times, while describing the airplane accident. Even later, it was shown from time to time when the issue of the media‘s sensitivity to human rights was discussed. Unfortunately, the press video containing this woman‘s image was digitally archived. Ironically, I could, therefore, fill in the missing part (her red panty) of my memory.
2. By the way, why am I so afraid of radio sounds?
This Image Is Still Valid
Why was the female panty such a big deal?
Does it still matter all that much?
unreliable speaker
Thoughts on the video materials.
About the narrator:
testifying about this case and the very image.
No choice but to follow this voice.
how convincing the speaker is?
with inaccurate memories,
still engulfed in infantile fear,
in the partial and fragmentary structure.
And the right to tell this story.
the image of 靑, 女, 裳 (Blau, Woman, Dress)
This scene has a peculiarly strong imprint on people and is most recounted despite the other offensive and uncensored images that illustrated the same incident. The naked, exposed woman‘s body above all else, sparked a taboo.
Landing with Typhoon, September 2022.
On September 5, I was sitting on a plane trying to land through Typhoon Hinnamno.
I thought that if I died in an airplane accident while investigating an airplane accident, there would be no such obvious cliché.
So please, I beg to die not now.
the very image
the human body swept away by disaster.
The naked, exposed woman‘s body in the media.
Her body awoke humans‘ weakness and inability to resist the threat of survival.
Meanwhile, to see under a young woman‘s skirt arises eroticism, which is improper in the holy realm between life and death.
Perhaps this eroticism is a stronger image than death.
On the other hand, eroticism may be derived from death and is surprisingly close to it.
Perhaps, it caused a feeling of guilt and made us uncomfortable by voyeuristically witnessing the "pain of others" and distancing us from their reality.
Perhaps, the panty offended a human being‘s dignity.
And, perhaps, some may feel more empathy towards those who suffer this kind of familiar embarrassment and humiliation than with the victim‘s bloodstained face.
