Concept
The world is full of people who are good at pretending.
They think it's better to be on the defensive than to get hurt all the time.
But when love comes
Is it because of this protective color
And miss the chance to connect with others?
Everyone wants to love and be loved
But we forget that
Love is an innate instinct.
Only when you are willing to take off your disguise
To show your vulnerability, you'll find true love.
(In the picture, the dream girl is wearing a cactus helmet, the rabbit is wearing a cactus suit, the turtle's shell is camouflaged, and there are also some animals that are already in camouflage to show that people often live under camouflage, while the little partner, Tong Tong, is holding a balloon of love, which represents that when love is coming, will our protection hurt this love, or lose the chance of getting this love).
