Author-illustrator Kim Sang Keun

Korean Authors   Author-illustrator Kim Sang Keun   2021.11.01     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hello, it is nice to meet you. My name is Kim Sang Keun. I am an illustrator as well as a writer.   What kind of person do you think an author is?   A picture book illustrator is an “Eoreune”. “Eoreune” is a compound word meaning adult and child. In English, it is “Kidult”. The reason for my answer is that both my childhood as well as my adulthood are present in myself. I think it is the subject closest to “Eoreune”.   Do you have a specific reason for deciding to pursue the study of animation?   Throughout my childhood, I tended to encounter cartoons and animation when I watched television. At that time, I liked and earnestly watched shows such as Disney Cartoon Series and other entertaining TV programs in the evening. I would draw the characters and watch the recorded version over and over again when I was ...

Although it was destroyed during the Imjin War in the 16th century and later reconstructed in the late 19th century, the palace holds the scars and memories of Korea’s turbulent history.After hanbok was chosen as the most impressive Korean fashion item in the previous issue, this m...

Author-illustrator Lee Myoung Ae

Korean Authors   Author-illustrator Lee Myoung Ae   2021.09.06     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   I draw and write illustrated books. I’ve been making books for about 15 years now. I’m Lee Myoung Ae, an illustrated book author.   When did you first dream of becoming a children’s book writer?   I didn’t stand out academically. I was an ordinary child with nothing that particularly stood out about me. The first time I was praised for drawing I was in middle school. My art teacher recommended that I major in art. I thought about it a lot at that time What am I good at? What made me happiest? I decided that was painting.   Do you have any particular habits?   Whilst making illustrated books is my job, one of my habits is keeping a picture diary. Actually, people rarely do this after doing it in elementary school, but I think a picture diary where you can write and paint together is the most important habit one ca...

We talk about the uniqueness and excellence of "hansik" by mentioning the efficacy or nutritional balance of some foods, such as kimchi and "jang" (Korean pastes). However, the uniqueness of our food culture should be seen in more broader perspective, for example, how to look for foods in the environment of the Korean Peninsula over many years, how to prepare meals, how to serve, how to eat, etc. That is...
