Abstract
“Kidult” is a newly coined word for an adult who indulges in the culture of children. Kidult started the idea that people could escape from hard and boring lives. I thought of my childhood moment when I passed by an arcade claw machine and begged my parents for some change to play it. I believe that everyone has similar memories that can relate. Playing the claw arcade game can cast people back to their time of innocence. Therefore, 'Catch me If you can' can become a shelter that stimulates nostalgia of one's younger days.
