the city lights
LamplightThe city Yebin lived in was messy, noisy and crowded during the hectic days. Observing people in the city from a walking distance was never a good idea, and it always left a bad impression on Yebin. However, everything changes at night, and her city was not an exception. Watching it from afar was a thing Yebin would always do when she felt like she needed to think, or just simply push all of the thought out of her mind, and dream with her eyes opened.
