This POAP commemorates Grant Yun’s first physical solo exhibition Growing Up in Seoul, South Korea. Hosted by Avant Arte, the exhibition is open to the public from 22-30 March 2024 at Soft Corner Gallery in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. “Growing up is a journey you take on your own.” Since 2019, Grant Yun has lived between his permanent home in Wisconsin and New England. When the Covid pandemic hit he found himself isolating in Connecticut. Like the rest of the world, he was “forced to take in that loneliness.” A feeling of distance saturates this series of works on paper. Sometimes that is the cultural distance between an immigrant parent and their child – while the child craves American snacks like a PB&J, the parent relishes in the delayed gratification of kimchee (Mom Made Dinner!). Although he grew up in California, the weight of history Yun felt in New England caused him to reflect on his childhood as a first-generation Korean-American. This is encapsulated in the tender depiction of a father, Dad. The figure disappearing into the shadow of a house is a sombre reminder of generational distance, captured in an everyday scene remembered from childhood. Growing Up is Yun’s first exhibition in Korea, and feels like a full circle moment for him. It presents his quintessentially American Neo-Precisionism in South Korea, connecting two of the cultures that raised him.

We are commemorating our IP-driven virtual influencer WADE and our community-driven IRL party. We are gathering holders and general web2 public to participate in this event to give them a glimpse of the sneak peek of the coming project. By throwing this event, we are hoping to create a sense of involvement where our community members partake in this gathering as our IPs unfold their story. This event is a refreshment to bridge our community and WADE himself. This POAP drop is a beginning of many more to come for our community. This drop is not a mere souvenir or bookmark verifying that our holders have attended the event. This drop is a demonstration and reflects our very commitment that our digital obsessions are finally breaking into the physical arena, ultimately connecting the digital realm and physical warm. People who get this drop may also have exclusive and privileged benefits that are currently being developed. We want people to remember that there are much more to come when it comes to the IRL event and much more is being discussed for the sake of our community and this very event is just a beginning for all of that to come.
