immigration in a nutshell
The global volume of immigration is high in absolute terms, but low in relative terms. The UN estimated 190 million international migrants in 2005, about 3% of global population. The other 97% still live in the state in which they were born, or its successor state. - Wikipedia
i was always an immigrant, even in my childhood in Korea. i always felt i had a true home different from what i had back then, and longed for my birthplace. it's been a few years since i finally returned to the home of my birth, the US, and still am an immigrant, probably more than ever. do i miss Korea? not likely, thanks to the Korean government INS officers and their services.
with this little typographic doodle, i don't intend to make a grand political statement. i am just fascinated by the notion of residency in this short excerpt and in this whole immigration/home/identity business.

I admire your Free will of type settings. There's no fear and no rule applied (maybe there's no rule from the beginning) and it looks GREAT.
Welcome to type world :)
i never learned typography properly. and that makes me appear brave i guess. as Koreans say, brave are the ignorant. :-) but i'm enjoying playing with types, by now you probably know too well.
