“Thank you very much for everything, Gyeonggi Governor Lim. It will definitely be a great success. Nam June Paik, February 1st, 2002, MiAMi.” is written in a combination of Chinese, Korean, and English characters. The drawing seems to hold Nam June Paik’s wish for a successful opening of the Nam June Paik museum. Drawn in the background is a human face with earphones that seem to enjoy listening to something through a satellite. Above the word “SATELLite” in the upper-left corner, Paik added a form of a planet, which suggests the often-employed concept of space communication.
