Clumsy… Clumsy… Clumsy… Guess what I'm doing now? Ang-ish or 앙스러운[angseureoun] is a neologism created to convey ambivalent meanings. This term encapsulates ‘Ang’, an unconscious exclamation people use to project their cuteness onto others, as well as the hidden fang/pang behind a cute appearance that leads to ‘Angst’. The Korean word '안쓰러운[ansseureoun]' refers to a feeling of pity for something pathetic, similar to what one might feel towards someone who is in ‘anguish’. However, it can also evoke an uncontrollable feeling of ‘anger’.

Min-Suck Kim is a South Korean artist-researcher. He creates movements that are considered failures. This approach is rooted in a strong conviction: it’s more intriguing to be clumsy than to succeed in a boring way. His mission has always been to shape an aesthetic process that leads to failure and to bring that failure into the tangible world.
