Kwang-Kyu Kong
'Cheongyang Market' is a gentle book beautifully illustrated and written by Korean poet and illustrator Kwang-Kyu Kong observing the similarities between man and animal and the characters of village markets, published by Grassandwind Publishing.
The illustrations have a wonderful printed scumble effect and feel quite retro and charming.

Lee Haery
It is always very difficult to share Korean illustration, often you cannot find an English translation of the name so that you cannot even search for them. This year translations were provided at Bologna but the publishers are super protective and secretive and hate you documenting their books in any way. This book by Jeong-Sun Choy is called 'Guess Who' and is illustrated by Lee Haery using simple but very effective ink drawings combined with real foliage.

Soon Ok Lee
Exhibited at the Illustrators Exhibition were Korean illustrator, Soon Ok Lee's pebble pigs from the book 'Opposite Pigs' published by Bandal Publishing House in Seoul. I'm sorry at the moment I am unable to find links to this illustrators work.

Wonderful work by Belgium based Korean illustrator Ga-Ae Jung (Bong Jung), using a cross-hatching to infer the caging on an aviary.
