Thank you. I Nagy
So far I am unable to find any works from this artist.
I think I do not know how to interpret the information
for a proper search.

Again Thank you

Dear Craig,

In Korea, like in Japan and China there are hundreds(in China thousands) of contemporary artists acive. Only a small segment of them are
represented on the net, - first not in English.
In case of Korean artists the Korean language net
exclusively uses only the Hangul (syllabic) script, while the large majority of artists still prefer to use the Chinese characters in inscriptions, signatures and seals. Even for native Koreans (the majority of them cannot read the Chinese characters) is rather difficult to disentangle the things.

With regards,
I.Nagy
