Their solo show, "Black on White, Gray Ascending", a seven-channel installation, was part of the inaugural opening of the New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York, in 2007.

Moreover, their multilingual typography-based creations tackled social and political issues like capitalist corporate culture and the division of the Korean peninsula.

Their works also featured the era of the late 1990s and 2000s as a keen understanding of unique Korean circumstances with a grasp of global artistic conventions and proficiency in cutting-edge media.
