From Disposable to Irreplaceable: The Story of My Spider-Man Film Flyers

From Disposable to Irreplaceable:
The Story of My Spider-Man Film Flyers

2024

The zine investigates the transition of South Korean film flyers from ephemeral promotional materials into valued collectibles.

Using a collection of Spider-Man flyers as a case study, the project explores the distinction between flyers and posters, highlighting the unique physicality of these objects in a digital age.

The zine examines why items originally designed for disposal are preserved and questions the ethical shifts that occur when advertisements become personal assets. Through this exploration, the zine offers a critical perspective on how design and scarcity redefine the value of everyday, mass-produced objects.
