1. 0perati0n Nuk0rea

   The tale of a fictional war between North Korea and South Korea/the USA. As opposed to many other works produced by Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries, the text in this piece moves upwards from the bottom of the frame, giving the reader an experience closer to that of reading a book.

   The work was converted from Adobe Flash format to video around 2021.

4. Les Amants de Beaubourg

   This work was made in the event of the 30th anniversary of the Centre Pompidou. Thirty works each represented a year from 1977 to 2007 and Young-hae Chang Heavy Industries represented year 2007 with the work Les Amants de Beaubourg. The work deals with more philosophical questions than other more narrative-based works, such as Bust Down the Doors!, by Young-hae Chang Heavy Industries and has many references to the creation of art by artists, especially Marcel Duchamp.

5. Onrust (Restlessness)

   The hyperlinked title on the homepage of the author activates a Flash movie showing handwriting appearing against a greyish background -– not only the writing, but also the empty screen is reminiscent of paper. The most important difference with Oosterhoff’s paper work is the fact that this digital work is time-based, and plays like a movie. The text is not a finished object, it is actually being written as we watch it, or so it seems. There are no images in the work and no hyperlinks. The digital or internet context is thus not activated in any way, and the ‘permeability’ (Tabbi 2004: 215) of reading in an electronic environment is thus reduced as much as possible.

8. Cunnilingus in Nordkorea

   This piece places a purported text by Kim Jong-Il in conversation with Nina Simone’s “See-Line Woman” in perfectly sexy YHCHI fashion. Whether the text is real or not is beside the question (I would like to believe it is) because the “Dear Leader” of North Korea provides a speaker and frame of reference that shapes how we understand the text particularly when juxtaposed with the music and lyrics sung by Simone. The text displayed on the screen is mostly by Kim Jong-Il, interspersed with some “Oh”s by Simone, creating a dialectic where male and female, communism and capitalism, North and South Korea, East and West, meet. Consider how the contrast between the seductive, commodified sexual politics sung by Simone’s and the political propaganda of sexual liberation offered by Kim Jong-Il’s text come together to help us rethink the granting or denial of sexual favors as a type of currency.

9. L0tus Bl0ss0m

   The work L0tus Bl0ss0m is a tale of two people meeting in a subway. One of them, a cleaning lady, seem to suggest similar ideas as the philosopher Jacques Derrida, while the other helps her with the garbage in exchange for hearing her thoughts.

   The work was published on Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries' web page in 2002 according to the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, and was converted to video format around or after 2018.
