Under The Sewer ㅣ404ER
Brief background(stage) description :
Sewer: There is a common perception that sewers are dirty and messy. It could mean the current situation you and I are in, or it could mean you and my unconsciousness. However, beautifully expressed, you and I contain a message that is dreamy and beautiful, not social misfits, simple graphic garbage, or 404 errors.

Metamask: which symbolizes crypto and NFT (You or my wallet address itself is expressed as the main character.)
Oil barrel: which symbolizes Gas fee for buying and selling works to NFT (The cost of purchasing the work and the cost of registering the work are expressed. Due to this, the space of the work indicates that it is in the middle of NFT.)
Graphic card: which symbolizes mining and 3D graphics (You can think of the NFT work itself as a simple piece of graphic data. However, to others, it is regarded as a work of art. It has this double meaning.)
Waste tires: which symbolizes that they are just garbage without cars (It means useless when alone, but useful when together. You and I won't be useless with someone else. So it means don't think of yourself as a 404 error.)
Traffic cone: which symbolizes places when access is inaccessible (The thoughts and demands of the world that have nothing to do with me don't put it in front of me and you because loneliness is me and your territory. Your and my subconscious space prevents anyone from entering, but maybe it means you want someone to come in intensely.)
Bitcoin: which symbolizes virtual currency. (It can mean simple money and wealth, or it can mean your hope, happiness and preciousness.)
Beer bottles: which symbolizes being drunk or intoxicated. (Intoxicated with various emotions such as happiness, sadness, and pain, it expresses social life, work, escape from work, and slump. It can be interpreted in various ways depending on the work.)
