Oriental painter Kim Hyun Jung, known for her 'Naesoong' series depicting the unexpected — a woman elegantly dressed in hanbok sprawled on the floor eating ramen, or riding a motorcycle making deliveries — is holding a solo exhibition titled 'Naesoong Amusement Park' at Is Gallery on Insadong-gil, Seoul. The works go through a process of first drawing the figure nude, then layering on translucent hanbok like dressing it, followed by collage. The exhibition runs through April 11. (02)585-6556
