The Moment Between Ending and Beginning

Curated Story Vol. 01: CGS

Artist | Yujin Park

Before the day fully begins, there is a moment that feels suspended in time.
A blurred figure. A reflected form. A presence that feels near, yet distant.
In this story, CGS appears not simply as a product, but as a symbol of transition a quiet passage that exists at the boundary between light and shadow.
In this story, CGS appears not simply as a product, but as a symbol of transition a quiet passage that exists at the boundary between light and shadow. It is the time Postdawn speaks of: the brief pause between what has ended and what is about to begin. The form within the image feels almost winged, as if gently comforting a lingering melancholy, as if something that has already dissolved is preparing to rise once more. What we encounter here is not clarity, but the process of becoming itself. Postdawn is drawn to these moments— when identity has yet to settle, when beauty exists even before it is defined.
This visual collaboration with artist Yujin Park captures that fragile instant: where the past quietly fades, and a new self begins to take shape, softly and without force.

Not loud. 
Not rushed. 
Just beginning.
