Illustrator Andrew Hou experienced difficulty expressing his love for his wife with words, so he chose to explain this feeling to his wife by drawing.
Andrew is Chinese, yet he was born in Canada. His wife Kate (a.k.a HJ) is Korean. The couple, married for five years, lives together in Seoul, South Korea.
“Korean not being my native tongue didn’t help either,” he told. “So making silly, sappy doodles was my workaround for the problem.” he felt that it was easier to express feelings visually than verbally. Later, Andrew named his series “HJ-story” after his wife’s Korean name initials.
