The original artworks were reproduced as Hanji print editions and Hanji digital print posters, offering a fresh perspective on the use of Hanji as a medium for artistic expression. Notably, actor Joseph Lee garnered significant local acclaim for his portraits of both his grandfather and himself, created using bold brushstroke techniques on Hanji.
During the exhibition, prominent local cultural and art institutions, including the French Federation (Ateliers d’art de France), along with distribution partners, continued to attend the event. Renowned global brands such as Louis Vuitton, Renault, and Amorepacific, in addition to both domestic and international concept stores, expressed interest in collaboration. The works on display will be made available for purchase through a dedicated distribution platform, thereby enhancing their collectible value.
President Chang Dongkwang of KCDF stated, “Through collaboration with Korean Wave cultural artists who are actively working on the global stage, this exhibition has become an opportunity to showcase the artistic potential and value of Hanji as an artistic medium to the world.” He further added, “We plan to continue enhancing the excellence of Hanji, which has a long history and tradition while also promoting its modern applications.”
