When a group of 500 Yemenis arrived on Jeju Island in June 2018, irrational rumors about them quickly spread and sparked my interest in making this project. I could imagine what trials they would experience in Korean society, which is still largely homogeneous, as the Yemenis attempted to navigate their new environment as ‘strangers’. I wanted to show what happened behind the scenes - how and why they ended up in Korea. I believe I'm the right person to tell this story of global causality, as I am based both in South Korea and Germany, as an insider and a migrant, with an understanding of international politics.
