Exploring Asia:
Korea
Melis+Dainon’s connection to the country of South Korea runs deep in their family. Two of Dainon’s siblings were adopted from the country, one born in Seoul and the other in Busan. This personal tie makes their time spent soaking in the culture and with the people even more meaningful. Here are images captured during a few of their journeys on both 35mm and medium format film.
