One evening, as Kiet was preparing for his night out at a local club, he received a message from an old friend, requesting to meet up. The friend, whose name was Phai, had a peculiar request: he wanted Kiet to participate in a photography project. Phai explained that he was working on a series of portraits that celebrated the beauty and diversity of the LGBTQ+ community, and he thought Kiet's unique look would be a great addition.
