It is a story through the eyes of a fangirl who lives in a fictional world she has created on the internet. She observes, imitates, and finds her idol through her own written fanfictions.
4EVER is an interactive video work, where the visitor can choose their own path of the story. The visual storyline takes the hints from the fanfictions and unfolds the relationship between the fandom communities and the music industry. The work is based on the research of various fan groups and the artist's own memories.
