They named the film “Death of Kiss”.

 

Expressing excitement after the publication of the photo, Moon said, “All photographers want their photos to be in a major news media, such as National Geographic, BBC, Discovery. When my photo was published in National Geographic, I felt it was the biggest achievement of my life and the result of my five years of hard work had just paid off.
