About The Work

A woman in pantyhose is lying down. The stockings that often appear in the work are thin and transparent, but they are much warmer than expected. It looks weak, but it tightens the body. But at the same time, it gets hurt easily. Stockings are a minimal piece of protective clothing for the body, but they don’t really provide protection. Jinju Lee often uses stockings in her works because it fits the character’s sensibility well.
