Title : Entering the Mind Through the Mouth Running Time : 23 min 40 sec Production Note:
	After finishing short animation Tom N Jerry, I had to keep working on this animaiton, which I had begun earlier before Tom N Jerry. However I didn’t like its old story, so I decided to break down the whole story, I started with totally new story. At that time, I really wanted to rest because I had just finished 13 minutes long animaiton, and I was totally exhausted. Somehow, I started to work on a new animaiton titled ‘Entering the Mind through the Mouth’. I was so tired, I was sick. After 4 months, I could get a 24minutes long animation. I didn’t even know how I finshed it for that short time. So, am I happy now? I’m happy. Why not?

I had lived at Seoul city in South Korea for past 10 years before I got to San Francisco. It has been over 3 years for me to live here. I hated this city first time because I did not like the cool weather with fog, which made me have an allergic symtom on my nose and my dry skin. However, It got to feel like this city is my second hometown. City, buildings, streets, Cafes and Bridges. I finished my two animated films on Larkin and O’farrell st. I started my career as a director in this city. You know, I like San Francisco.

Title : Tom N Jerry Running Time : 12 min 44 sec Production Note:
	I heard the news that Joseph Barbera, half of the legendary duo of Hanna-Barbera, passed away on December 18,2006. I have really enjoyed Their Tom and Jerry; a series that has inspired me. I wanted to make a purely entertaining short animaton just like their Tom and Jerry. I came up with this story when I was waiting for the airplane in SFO airport. There were some kids running around me and bothering me.
