TYPOGRAPHY

BOOK DESIGN

THIS BOOK IS ABOUT OLD KOREAN RETRO TYPOGRAPHY.  THIS CONTAINS VINTAGE AND NOSTALGIC HAND DRAWN LETTERINGS, LOGOS, PACKAGES, ADVERTISEMENTS, ETC, WHICH ARE VERY BOLD AND CRUDE BUT DEFINITELY UNIQUE.

I COLLECTED FOOTAGES FROM OLD TRADITION MARKETS, SHOPS, CLOSED FACTORIES, AND STREETS IN SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA.

I MADE AND DESIGNED THIS BOOK TO RE-ILLUMINATE AND RECORD 

PAST (1940~1980) KOREAN GRAPHIC DESIGN & RETRO TYPOGRAPHY, AND SHOW WHAT KIND OF DESIGN & TYPOGRAPHY WERE 

PERMEATED INTO THE HIGH STREETS, AND EVERY DAY-TO-DAY LIFE AT THAT TIME.
