ian-john
I have been watching Ian-John performing in several alleyways of Manan.
He has been carefully listening to the sound of ManAn and started harmonizing with the original sounds coming from everywhere. His sound is nothing noisy, not loud. It's very subtle, soft and delicate. Many people were wondering what he was doing. They stopped walking, watching him what he was doing. Some were giving him a strange look because he looked different from people here in Korea, and he acted differently than others, also. It was quite a new experience for me watching Ian-John creating new sound within the sound.
