Modifier to introduce the author of peace in Korea was a lot too . World Peace 2012 with the title of many standing committee world peace ambassador , ambassador to share South Korea , the Republic of Korea would like ambassador , the National Unification Advisory Council , Gimpo City honorary ambassador , the next generation Cultural Forum co-leader , called Korean Food Ambassador rise in the art , such as the award-winning challenge Korea Award , and so on.
Such he became the Korea Institute recording director in November last year . The international architecture exhibition held at COEX to 26 days from 23 days leave in January , and prayed to the forefront in order to facilitate construction , the Korean Wave .
Was " I asked something , he laughed " common point between architectural Korean Wave 'is said to be the originator of the Korean wave right I " of South Korea that was . Also common point between the architecture and the work of his that require design and surveying there , was the keyword " architecture Korean Wave " , and seems to have become a reason for connecting him probably
characters written in large brush audience of writing a message to the construction Korean event space , the "Architecture Korean Wave " was divided into six "Architecture Korea fluid" , the world map as a background , but together later I symbolize the " harmony " was completed .
When the word in 1993 called " Korean wave " even unfamiliar , he announced the Hangul Korea and to the people of the world by drawing the world map in a 1cm Saihitsu Hangul . Named Korea also different man , but the creative ideas that you create a world map in Hangul , I wonder did you do that? It is a composite art what his work such as construction . Sketch the exact design , sophistication must be a coherent whole . To artistic beauty is there ...
The creativity of his , I was examined before more abroad than in Japan . 2008 , starting with the exhibition of New York Koreans Cultural Center , his name is known , I became interested in the map of world peace that he draws .
Map of 22 countries was completed so far , map of world peace he has been exhibited United Nations headquarters , the national memorial . In part one of his works , compelling desire of sweat and blood is blend as it is , I will give the impression to itself .
Letter by a 1cm Saihitsu Hangul brush , went out to write culture , the history of the country , it is a long time 6 to 8 months , over five years and take a short peace map of the world , to work one .
Once you have completed March Tunisia map is a country of 35 th are working now come , that plans to donate again to the United Nations headquarters map of world peace of 13 countries , including this , have not been donated to the United Nations headquarters still .
As long as it plays a major role to inform the world in Korean culture , I asked about the peace he think Korean culture and love of Korean writer .
Map of " peace is a work that well represented in a work of art Hangul , record culture "
# Was recently become director of the Korea Institute record . Korea Institute record whether any such place.
Registrar of Korea and the National Academy of Recording is different . Korea Institute record , also serves to authenticate the record by covering a record of the private as Guinness Korea . For example , South Korea - the longest running companies , plays a role of admire with Korea's first car , the authentication of the best record of IT equipment, etc. , to encourage the firm Doosan . I think of record in the sense that is passed to a generation culture is after is saved using the record in any era is very important .
Guidance of world peace that I draw is also a kind of cultural record that records the history and culture of the country . Thankfully , I was awarded the 1st Republic of Korea Culture Awards comprehensive record grand prix 2011 past .
In addition , last year , was offered to the public " work that expressed in a work of art Hangul " and Culture and Tourism national language policy the day of Hangul , but is selected to the public offering . It received a record certified Korean record Institute was able to carry out the special exhibition titled to be " talking about peace of Hangul " over the 120m from the front of the statue of King Sejong at Gwanghwamun . It seems to have become a director of the Korea Institute of record on that edge .
# The idea of drawing a map in the very beginning Hangul How have you been
Civilian government era , when globalization has become a hot topic , Kim Jeong-ho King Sejong , Daito litter map , fall history Jeong Hee came to dream of when you are worried about how let the world know about Korea . And , to me , it is assumed to create a peace map to be centering point of the peace of the world . He studied Chinese classics from childhood , learned calligraphy , but had never map was drawn . If there is no thing that I used Hangul calligraphy kanji writing , and reconsider the font . I thought of writing a sentence that's good because it is a disease of the brush in the army , but had never seen it with the statement that it is a very large side 7m, of 7m in height. Writing sequence of characters so as not to distort was the biggest problem .
If whether thin , I will write to fit the line by placing the tile down but did not sight of it is also the three times is special traditional . It was that there was thought would draw a line with a pencil , but if you erase eraser later , the paper was awarded .
After all , how was one . It was a way to practice blindfold . It's used to put out the fire to extinguish the fire , and wrote a statement Han Sok Bong It was that simple for me .
I throw away huge money line of whether to do anything one million yen in one piece whether or misalignment , typographical comes out . The reason for the complete measurement that I should to use 0.1mm 1cm of characters so as not to shift it is difficult , but it was there .
It can now be written sentences finely the end it is trained numerous by the blind . However , I have a story of mystery people that calligraphy is still strange . There is no choice but to look with the eyes of my heart in the end. Sun draw the map practice to empty the mind in Hangul , that requires training of the mind , know-how is also required .
" Overcome by a sense of mission and hope the pain of creation "
# To complete one work , a very long time is likely to take .
Map of the Korean peninsula unified desire that sent to North Korea was working without waste 5 years 80 000 characters . Three steps 1 High was luxury to me . Sophisticated design writing without waste to write a letter of 1cm, and got it working figure of the entire map if I had to leave back to see the text standing is required . Such points of architecture like in many cases. Looking at the white wall shape of the map with his eyes closed , are working constantly appears on the surface , the size of the map drawn in it comes out .
Map of Tunisia is a vertical rectangle . Map of the Korean Peninsula is also vertical . Switzerland is horizontal . Order to increase the vertical unilaterally , it is shifted to the side, as measured in the same manner as pictures taken by satellite , by the need to represent on the floor limited , it must be very sophisticated .
Many foreign activities , now is witty one at all in one year , I made about three points a year earlier . Are face down all day when some , but there were times when the pain came on the knee , I feel very suicidal very scab is also seated .
It is that work 12 hours each day lean , was like you are making a map of peace in the pain is taken out little by little the poisons present on the earth . For some reason that is accompanied by the pain , because there was one drug to me . Medicine that can get over the pain just was one of hope .
There is a work called one of us who were sent to North Korea and South Korea hope . Also met Korea works to desire the unification , if it is also in the North , given the hope that may be the desire is passed , it was possible to overcome the pain . When I draw a map of other countries , rather than to be making a work of art one , to inform the world Korea , was given the meaning to notify the other countries the story of Korea .
Person of the sense of mission , not the feeling that the completion of the work as an artist , announced the Hangul , and shall notify the peace was greater . So I better that the " peace movement " is or is referred to as a " writer of peace " may be referred to as an artist .
# What Hangul written in the map , whether the content
70% write the history and culture of the country , put in creation when to desire peace 20% , 10% , content entering the lesson plan in the country , I am for the unity and peace of the world I put own ideas . Yunsochon poet is my wife . When you draw a map of Japan , and us to work together just on the number of characters of the poem for the peace of Japan . For example , the required character is in the 197 characters , can you built a time to suit perfect for the number of characters . Thus , copyright is a joint and my wife .
# The special production Hangotoinji Did you used to work
Since there is no that there is a large size like that , to be custom-made . Take million won about the making of one piece to make a craftsman of whether gathered . I won million or if it was used in the work called "Hope Republic of Korea " . It is usually 40 000 , because to buy four at a time . I wrote a sale price of about 500,000 square meters apartment in value if they were until now . Some people ask whether so rich writer of Korea you . During the 15 years , we have been donated to the tube until now because of the revelation of a dream make a donation to the tube do not sell to individuals .
" Prayer for world peace , the process itself of making works , wish "
▲ writers of peace in Korea was " hope the Republic of Korea "
# Is there Hangul , peace , and what kind of relationship the world map
Hangul is a character of peace . Because , Hangul make sound by creating a character consonants and vowels are met . This , I take out the sound of each cursor and copper , Hangul , was thought to symbolize that the cursor copper and they are in harmony .
Title of large characters in English draw a map of the country , I wrote the name of the country . Was an exhibition of many so far , but the exhibition are the most meaningful , was the day of Hangul in the past . It was not specified during holidays 20 years of Hangul Day was a public holiday before. Desire of my seemed to happen when you while working without waste , and desire that the day of the Hangul is a holiday again to the day of Hangul is specified for the holidays again , I was happy too .
While making the work , I will be working almost without waste . This is the same as the figure for the wishes and prayers . I think that it was while working for the first time , but one who is a South Korea is a divided nation only on the earth , was the feeling that if not must origin or prayer without waste .
When the third grade elementary school , figure that prayer mother is as successful child of jar accidentally coming go toilet at dawn , the moment when I saw the figure of desire , I solemn so , it could not be that bad then were . And now the idea if you imagine the back figure of the mother from an early age , what kind of wish that transmitted to the other party , the desire to draw the map of peace , as hope mother as successful child , I unification of the Korean peninsula , it is to desire peace of the whole world .
# When it exhibits the works for the first time in New York in 2008 , whether there was interest in Korean foreign
When that time , I went to New York , foreigners who where not even know there is a Korea there was no foreigners know Hangul in many cases. I asked if those those people come first , was printed the map of me. The answer was that there is no machine to be printed a large paper like this to be printed . Why not whether drew something like this , I cried all say that it has made drawing a map of peace in this way during the '16 came from Korea in the divided nation only .
It was talking about more publicity is by talking to other students to go MIT Institute of Technology students who have been studying in France has come .
Was expressed as writer cojones is large and did you the idea of how it has become a hot topic in North Korea to exhibit in New York work to me . In New York , there was also us to the VIP hospitality of Koreans who make a self-esteem of Korean and causing a great sensation at the time me happy .

" The peace , to be maintained in that recognized the opponent and trust "
# Peace Korea you think
That big map over national of that country , one of one of the characters forms a unity to form a single country . If you try to make the work , so that falling in love with the country . Is the work of the letter by the terrain of the country , history , culture lean , but what would be forced to fall in love . It is one that is fall peace of the world , the love of the world unintentionally . It was not born shouting peace from the beginning .
Some of the work that would like the Republic of Korea , the Republic of Korea Constitution is written. I learned while making the Republic of Korea would like to be familiar with the laws of Korea . So , I want to provide to Members of Congress . MPs want to want to write a Constitution once Because I'll gift my notes . I think then , what the law is in a sense , to become a great help to make a method to touch the breast of how it was created .
My country is important , other countries 's important , and my land is also important land of other countries and important . Should not look beyond the other countries . Without an greed , in recognition of each other , if the trust , peace will be maintained accordingly. I want to say it and think by changing the hard surface position is this . We believe if the other party to acknowledge each other , to be able to get along in the Women's , high load span , be coordinates well in all relationships .
In 2014 , I want you to be so can you recognize a little opponent . The word " would be the way " cant you have a conversation with each other must leave . Try to imagine the scene as is said "It was such a thing ," the summit is even .
" Korean Food (韩食) is a co- agent of the Korean "
# Even though Korean Food ambassador , what kind of relationship with existing activities
And I think the expression on the word food, clothing and shelter is tipped . "The Day of Korea " has not become established is compared to the importance . So , I have also exercise " Day of Korea " and try to establish from the Republic of Korea Korea Association . I went to place etc. Hanjeongsik house and put out a new one is selected to ambassador of South Korea in 2012 , it was also autograph session .
I want to say " Korean diet , but Ho-yaku " and if say a word Korean food . Food that meets the constitution and form of Koreans because Korea 's just . Food close to nature seems to be most Korea . The reason why I decided to October 10 to After an event established on the day of Korean food of October 10 , pronunciation is similar " Jusaji bowl of rice ( Jusaji Ichi饭) " and it is a tradition of our Te , it is was good to storytelling .
This year , I want you to know the Korea overseas as well as domestic . Each time you display the work in a foreign country , you have a plan that Korean food is also to promote together .
