Execution
There’s an old Korean saying in Korea: “enduring hardship is a virtue”. This was a virtue in our traditional era because of a status system, poverty, war, Confucianism. However Korean people no longer want to live a life unfulfilled. They want to express their characteristic and want to break the old virtue. They do not want to follow the old ways anymore. Shin Yunbok who was a traditional Korean realistic painter solved traditional social atmosphere sarcastically and depicted it in his artwork. We chose Shin Yunbok’s art in our current campaign because his art work clearly implied our purpose.
