OUR STORY
"HERALBONY," the unfamiliar word, was written in a notebook for the first time when Shota, the twin founders' older brother with autism, was 7 years old.
At that time, you would have found nothing if you googled the word. Even Shota said, “I don't know!” when he was asked about its meaning. However, we believe that he kept writing the word because he found the word's sound, letters or whatever attractive or comfortable for him. Therefore, “HERALBONY” reflects our passion and desire to give meaning to what are considered to be meaningless in today's world.
