EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by photojournalist Kim Hong-Ji, a South Korean soldier stands tall and vigilant near the concrete borderline at the truce village of Panmunjom. The photograph was taken inside the demilitarized zone that separates North and South Korea on April 11,2018. Dressed in a military uniform, this brave soldier embodies dedication and unwavering commitment to safeguarding his nation's borders. With sand soil beneath his feet and armaments within reach, he symbolizes the harsh reality of living in a divided land. The creative use of focus adds depth to the composition as it blurs out elements in the background, emphasizing our attention on this lone guardian. Standing amidst gravel and copy space surrounding him, he represents not only himself but also countless others who stand united against potential threats. This image serves as a reminder of the dangerous nature of his duty. A firearm firmly grasped in hand signifies readiness for any guarding action required to protect his homeland. Kim Hong-Ji's photograph captures an ordinary day where extraordinary individuals like this soldier go above and beyond their call of duty. It is through their bravery that peace can be maintained despite tensions between two nations.
