About

The word 震撼 is formed by combining two powerful, motion-based characters: 震, which depicts the shaking of the earth from thunder or quakes, and 撼, which means to shake or move something forcefully with the hand. Together, they create a single, amplified concept not of simple vibration, but of a deep, resonant shock that strikes both the senses and the emotions, like thunder that moves the very ground beneath you, leaving a profound and stirring impact.
