[세대] 예순다섯

A natural-light portrait of a Korean man around 65, newly retired after forty years at a shipyard, grey crew cut, a sun-darkened face where the skin at the very top of the forehead, just under the hairline, is only slightly lighter in a soft natural gradient because a work helmet shaded it for decades (subtle, realistic tan line, not a painted stripe), a small healed burn scar on his neck, a pressed plain collared shirt buttoned to the top. Calm, slightly uncertain expression, as if not yet used to free mornings. Soft window light, plain wall. Documentary, great respect, no idealisation. Photorealistic
