This work is a part of a site specific exhibition "Don't Follow the Wind", which is taking place inside the restricted Fukushima exclusion zone around Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear plant. ​

The original work “Home” (2015) was created together with a person who were the resident of this house, and it was a 3minutes 30seconds sound work to be listened in the collapsing house. Koizumi asked the person to imagine and act out a scene in which he would return to this house in the future. However, the house was demolished before the Olympics, and we can no longer experience the work.

Koizumi looped this 3minute 30 seconds of audio file and reconfigure it into a 30-minute new work, "Home Drama" (2022).
The audience is instructed to start the MP3 player at the gate of the house, and with the help of this map, expected to take a walk around the town to the final “Destination” .
