Kyeongbae Kim
"The In-Between"
Kyeongbae Kim is a Seoul-based animation director who explores what happens when emotions change shape. His work digs into anxiety, desire, and the invisible tensions that run between people. Every transition becomes a way to reveal what words cannot.
His visual language is raw and intense. Colors collide, figures morph and dissolve, and nothing ever stays still for long. There is beauty in the unease, and he knows exactly how to find it.
Kim has directed animated sequences for iconic K-pop cultural documentaries, as well as films for the worlds of video games and music videos. Whether personal or commissioned, his work carries the same restless energy and emotional charge.
He brings to every project a unique ability to turn inner conflict into striking, moving images. Each frame is a threshold.
