The Ho-Am Art Museum in Yongin is hosting a special exhibition 'Gyeomjae Jeong Seon,' showcasing 165 works, the largest ever collection of this renowned Korean painter. Two of his most famous pieces, the national treasures 'Inwangjesaekdo' and 'Geumgangjeondo,' are displayed together for a limited time. Jeong Seon, an influential figure in 18th-century Korean art, is celebrated for his contribution to 'Jingyeong Sansuhwa,' a genre depicting Korea's landscapes authentically, breaking away from the then-dominant Chinese style. This rare exhibition offers a chance to view these masterpieces until June 29, before 'Inwangjesaekdo' goes on a three-year international tour starting in November.
