The entire space is divided vertically and horizontally. The walls are arranged with lines to create a feeling of form (nine flags used to send signals between traps in the symbol of unification between North and South Korea) and draw the entire space. The lines represent the trajectory of moving dots and express the sensory characteristics of dense surfaces, implying uncertainty. The tunnel is a passage of qualitative transformation of life, where one passes from one world to another. At a certain stage of life, one walks through a dark tunnel before moving on to the next stage. While walking, one cannot be sure if they will be able to leave this place, so everyone who passes through the tunnel feels anxious. Nevertheless, those who leave the tunnel can only look forward and move forward. Looking back means doubting one's own choices. Those who doubt their own strength cannot cross the tunnel, and those who regret choosing another tunnel cannot cross it either. Even if one has the ability to cross the tunnel, hesitation itself prevents them from doing so. The only power that can make one cross the tunnel is the belief that this is the only way they must go.
