Edith is a musician who reinterprets the poetry of Yoon Dong-ju through electronic and rock music. Her work bridges classical literature and contemporary sound, transforming Yoon Dong-ju’s writing into an immersive auditory experience.

Her notable single, “Gongsang” (Imagination), inspired by the poet’s poem of the same name, reimagines the Tower of Babel as a symbol of modern ambition, isolation, and artificial intelligence.

Through this work, Edith explores new forms of hybrid art that transcend both genre and era.
