Artist Hyun Jung Kim lead through four private exhibitions 
with the concept of (Coy Story), which brought 
about an uproar of excitement as each exhibition was 
completely sold out and both Hyun Jung Kim and her work received 
a great deal of love from the public through the exhibitions 
as well as social media. And as each exhibition passed, 
each one had become a hot topic during its period. 
The aim of her work in “Coy Story” line of work was to take the 
elegance and mysterious atmosphere of a hanbok, a traditional 
Korean attire, and to place it upon a person in an informal and 
everyday setting. But to do so isn’t a simple process. The artwork 
she makes goes through a process in which the subject is 
first drawn nude. Then the hanbok is handmade by manually 
dying traditional Korean paper called “hanji” and making a collage 
out of them on top of the nude picture. By making the 
hanbok this way, they become translucent, giving away the 
message that “we can see right through her”. 
With such an original idea and concept, she received attention 
as a rising star amongst Korean painters as she attempted to 
evolve the basic theories and techniques of authentic oriental 
painting. with emphasis on passion and experience, she was 
deemed an “idol of Korean painting” within the art world 
as she found new ways to spread Korean art’s “POP” to the 
regular public through social media. Through this, she now is 
receiving wide recognition as a contributor to the art world and 
in the history of art. 
金炫廷画家她以“装相系列”为主题，已开过四次个人展览会。作品全部完售 
等成为话题，同时通过SNS备受大众欢迎。“装相系列”包含以韩服的优雅和 
秘密为本的不拘礼的日常。这幅画的过程是将人物用裸体的方式画出之后再 
用韩纸拼贴上。半透明的韩服是要表现出”内心深处都看得见”的意味。为了 
要将韩服表现出半透明的样子，所以直接将薄的韩纸染色之后再拼贴上去。 
新颖的想法和主题、表现手法都被评估为“唐突”。她在传统的东洋画理论和 
技术的基础上，试图新鲜的变化。在这一点上，她是韩国美坛的明日之星。 
重视资历和经验的美术界里，她当“韩国画的偶像”，把韩国画的大众性转移

[Artist Kim Hyun-Jung] Monthly Magazine KOREA _ Doing anything in Hanbok.

Kim Hyun-jung, a painter and Hanbok advocate,
draws portraits of modern-day women engaged in
modern-day activities while dressed in Hanbok.
In Kim’s reinterpretations, the women wear high
heels and brightly decorated nails together with
the traditional dress. They also eat burgers, ride
motorcycles and take part in indoor rock climbing.
“Because Hanbok is an elegant dress, it can
confine the wearer’s behavior in certain ways,”
Kim said. “For example, when I wear Hanbok I 
automatically straighten my back and even watch
the way I speak. I turned that idea around in my
head and contrasted Hanbok with things with which
it isn’t usually associated.”
Kim said she hoped her fans would react with
amusement and laughs.
Her solo exhibition, “Feign Playground,” which
ran from mid-March through early April, attracted
over 5,000 people a day and 41,000 in the first two
weeks.

Upon being asked how she would feel if the vision
in her paintings came true - if people dressed in
Hanbok as they went about their daily activities - Kim
smiled and said Hanbok would look very different.
“I tried to ride a bicycle once in Hanbok,” Kim
said, “The skirt got caught in the wheels and tore.”
Her custom-designed Hanbok had cost more
than the bicycle.
Upon hearing the artist’s remark, Inohjudan’s Oh
confidently said in a separate interview
that she could provide Kim with a 
Hanbok that she would have no problem
wearing on a bicycle or while using
sports equipment.
“Who says women cannot wear
trousers for Hanbok?” Oh asked.
“What we now know as the Western
style of clothing also went through
experimental periods to arrive at its
current stage,” she said. “I must point
out Chanel’s adaptation of male
clothes to female fashion.”
With innovative minds busy
at work, it may not be too long
before Hanbok hangs in
everyone’s closet.

[Artist Kim Hyun-Jung]Culture M magazine_welcome to 'Feign Amusement Park'

https://youtu.be/ummejQ6z2H8

Welcome to 'Feign Amusement Park'

The iconic Artist of Korean Painthing,

the artist Kim Hyun Jung

She returns with Her 10th Solo Exhibition

'Feign Amusement Park'

The behavior aroused from the look

and judgments from each other,

'Feign' is the subject of the path

to find your 'true self'

This spring, she invites you

to 'Feign Amusement Park'

Hello, CultureM Magazine viewers. 
I am a Korean painter, Kim Hyun Jung. 
Nice to meet you.

Q) There are something special things 
in ‘Feign Amusement Park’
This is my 10th solo exhibition.
This is the exhibition where I can see 
how hard I have been working and how my work has improved 
through each exhibition since my first exhibition.

The difference between this exhibition 
and the previous Feign exhibitions is that this is the biggest one I have had for 
there are about 100 paintings here. 

There are more paintings of feign series where it came from, but this is the first 
time I exhibit 100 some paintings 
in one place. So this is the biggest so far.

The second difference is this is 
the first exhibition in Korea to have 
the artist to record and provide 
the audio guide for the visitors.

The advantage of living in the same 
era is that I can have the privilege to hear the visitors’ opinion in person 
as the visitors can also here
how an artist has come about her work. 

Though I was quite shy about my voice, 
I did my best to record the audio guide
of each of my painting. 

“The name of this painting is 
‘Fantastic Stir-fried Rice’. 
Whenever I get hungry, 
I just run outside for food and 
when I see a food stall with 
spicy rice cake stick, 
I can’t just walk away. 

So I painted the food stall and 
the lady which is in the ally next to the
exit 10 of Gangnam station.“  

The third difference is there are 
many activities in the gallery. 
There is a coloring post card table. 

You can see the drawing version of 
my painting and visitors can 
color the drawings themselves and 
create something different on their own.

 Another activity is the toy 
vending machine. 
I used to play with this toy at a stationary store when I was a kid so 
I hope the visitors can enjoy this and 
reminiscent the memory as well. 

There is no losing ticket so you can 
simply enjoy the thrill of winning a lottery without the risk of losing. 

Also since the exhibition is held in 
a 4 story building, by the time people get to 
the third or fourth floor, 
they start to run out of breath.

So Miero Fiber sponsored drinks for 
the visitors to quench their thirst and 
take their time with the exhibition. 

I have prepared an exhibition 
that stimulates your all-5 senses 
so I hope you can enjoy it.

Q) The paintings that represents 
the exhibition
If I may introduce a few 
most interesting paintings 
in the exhibition, 
the first one is called
‘Sampo Generation, Miss Kim’. 

This is kind of self-portrait 
or our generation’s portrait 
who has given up 3 main things
in order to simply charge
forward like a bull.

The popcorn and movie tickets 
represent relationship, 
the wooden ducks and ring represents
marriage and the baby bottle 
represents childcare. 

You can also see a company employee pass. 
So this interesting painting is a representation of how we only work 
so hard as the fluttering employee pass
from the neck represents

but other objects representing 
what we are giving up in 
life are flying away.

The next paintings are 
about women’s stress: 
being on diet. 
It is called ‘New Year’s resolution
(feat Starting Tomorrow)’.

I tell myself everyday that 
I need to go on diet with sigh 
and I buy greens for salad every time 
I go to a supermarket then 
I end up eating all the fattening
food right in front of the fridge.

So it is a portrait of how I have to make
the resolution over and over everyday. 

This painting is about the time 
when I step on a scale, I strip down to my underwear in order to see even a gram off of a scale. 

There are also some series 
that reinterpret Disney princesses 
with modern perspective.
I wondered if Snow White were born 
in modern time, 
how would her life be.

I also thought Cinderella 
could be an amazing storyteller 
who mesmerizes people 
with a story about a shoe. 

I also thought ‘Is Beauty from 
‘The Beauty and the Beast’ truly kind?’ 
These are the thoughts behind 
Disney series. 

Q) The feign lady goes out into the 
world 

I have the solo exhibition at the
‘Gallery IS’ throughout April in 2016. 
In May, I have a plan to hold a solo 
exhibition at the culture center of 
Korean Embassy in Berlin.

I will have dual exhibitions with 
Paik Nam June at the 
Long Island museum in New York and 
Newark Museum too. 

I hope to continue my projects
in Korea as I also organize 
many exhibitions to resonate 
the beauty of Korea to the world.
