Isn't it as beautiful as an ink painting?
This is a shadow reflected on the safety wall of the construction site of Cheongun Center in the campus of Pukyong National University.

Guess, what shadow it is.
It is the shadow of the cherry blossoms.

Looking at that shadow, I know that the cherry blossoms are beautiful,
but the shadow of the cherry blossoms is just as beautiful as those.

Even without pale pink tinted and the floral scent of petals,
Even without the bees and butterflies flying near the blossoms,
Even without the blue sky as the background of the blooms,
The shadow of the cherry blossom is really touching, and beautiful.

The shadow reminds me of you.
Even in the midst of the virus with raging that covers the world
many of you who silently keep working what you should do at your best for the moment
many of you who always live with care and love, freedom and joy in your hearts.

Because you are flawlessly beautiful
I know that the silhouettes you mirror into the world are also beautiful.

Admiring the cherry blossoms that show such beautiful silhouettes,
it was the afternoon that reminds us of the shadows of you, me and all of us.
