Gongjoong Doduk (Korean: 공중도덕) is the debut studio album by South Korean folktronica artist Gongjoong Doduk, currently called Mid-Air Thief. The album was released on 9 February 2015.[1] The album was nominated for Best Modern Rock Album of the Year at the 2016 Korean Music Awards.[2]
Gongjoong Doduk debuted under the name Hyoo in 2012, and worked on everything by himself when making his first studio album.[3] Starting with this album, he changed his style of music to folktronica.[4]
Jeong Byeongwook of Music Y reviewed "Gongjoong Doduk is an album like a eloquent speaker that talks according to the flow of consciousness, but does not confuse listeners with their elegant speech skills, but rather misleads them."[5] Park Joonwoo of Weiv described the album as "The freshness created by guitars, vocals, and other sounds is still an inspiration to listeners a long time after the album was released."[6]
