Mr. Lamár

Inspired by my personal experience of living in Slovakia, this is a story about a Korean boy in Slovakia who embarks on an adventure in the old town of Bratislava and discovers the joy of sharing happiness, inspired by his idol Mr. Lamár (The Statue of Schōner Náci), who spread happiness in the streets of Bratislava in the 1900s despite his disability. 

This is a musical, drama, and action storyboard, using the song “Let’s Go on a Trip” by the Korean musician, Cho Yong-Pil.
