Daehagro is the familiar road from my childhood. Each time I visit there, I feel an indescribable nostalgia to the changed sceneries around my native place. I sketched a few buildings left unchanged, bring back my memory.

House of Chang Myun(1899 - 1966, Ex-Prime Minister, Ex-Vice President), Hyehwadong, Seoul, designated on 2007 as Cultural property of Seoul City, pencil, pastel, A 4

It was a hot day. But the sunlit red brick buildings at Marronnier Park, Dongsungdong were beautiful. It was meaningful to be able to sketch the private house of Chang Myun, which was designated as cultural property of Seoul on 2007. I went inside the house. Main building was of Korean style house and the annexed building for the visitors and secretaries was not of traditional style, but of compromised one.
