Polestar # : Kang Sik Park

As ‘ Connectivity ‘ became a basic necessity from the development of Sharing system and Autonomous driving, we had to redefine the future of ‘ Connectivity ‘. Though we still have been in contact with each other on the Internet under COVID-19, online relationship is insufficient for building a deeper connection with one another. At the same time, Concern for the climate emergency continue to arise, what we need to do before we find solutions, we have to know nature more by getting close to it. Thus, Kang Sik suggests Polestar #  “Pair – Sona“, which will help people to develop a mutual connection with other people and nature to solve these problems mentioned above.

Polestar # is designed to provide a place for ’ Pair -Sona ‘ experience, passengers can enjoy the stronger bonding experience while they are on Polestar #. Therefore, the redefined Connectivity ‘ Pair – Sona ‘ and Polestar # designed for these purposes would contribute to ‘ Progress ‘ in our Lifestyle.
