About Us

If I were to divide my body into two parts, the left side would belong to the "more normal" body visible to others, while the right side would be the "abnormal" body that scares people.

I am a restless individual who has enjoyed exploring and moving around since I first learned to walk. At just over a year old, having recently mastered walking, I took advantage of my family's distraction and walked into the kitchen alone to explore. The outcome was the accidental spill of freshly boiled water from the table, resulting in an unwelcome baptism of hot water. From that moment on, my skin and destiny took on a different course.

I have no impression of the injury process in my mind, mainly told by my family. However, the most impactful aspect of my growth has been the continual hospital visits for surgeries and follow-ups, as well as the experiences and emotions brought about by the scars on my body – both positive and negative, bitter and sweet – all of which have contributed to shaping the person I am today.

As time passes, the scars have remained with me, and I haven't made a deliberate effort to push them away. Together, we confront the various peaks and valleys of life. I no longer resist them; instead, I express gratitude for the distinct life they have bestowed upon me. My life is marked with uniqueness and beauty due to these scars. Even though they may be tears of both sorrow and joy, they are undeniably beautiful. My scars are beautiful.

There are many people around with obvious scars. We navigate through the crowds, presenting diverse images and evoking various emotions. People's gazes and reactions also give us different experiences. Therefore, I hope to use this platform to share the stories of different people’s scars, let everyone know more, and let more people understand that we all have scars of different sizes in our lives, some are obvious, and some are only seen by ourselves in our hearts. No matter where the scars are, I believe they have a certain meaning in everyone’s life, and they are beautiful.
