The Bojeong Station Community Culture Center (Bojeong-dong, Giheung-gu, Yongin), a cultural gathering space where the youth of Yongin's citizens blossoms, holds the 'Youth Party' talk concert on the second Friday of every month at 8 p.m., sharing issues together with a young artist.
At the Youth Party held on the 9th, Korean painter Kim Hyun Jung -- known by various epithets such as the idol of Korean painting, a 21st-century genre painter, and a pop Korean-painting artist -- spoke on the theme 'How to Draw Out Diverse Ideas Through Creative Thinking, as Taught by a Painter.'
Well known for her 'Naesung series,' a contemporary genre-painting series inspired by everyday moments, this artist was selected for Forbes' '2017 30 Under 30 Asia,' and is much loved as an artist who communicates through accomplished work that combines complex collage techniques using diverse materials with sincerity and wit.
At the event, an event to experience youth lifestyle culture was held for pre-registered participants, along with an opportunity to make their own items related to folk painting.
