RM introduced Lee Ungno’s Bamboo series online, telling his fans to visit the exhibition at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. He also added that he loves the artist’s People series. Kang Soo-jung, an exhibition manager at the museum, revealed that while she was preparing for the 50th-anniversary exhibition, she was greatly influenced by the BTS song, Sea, after hearing her daughter play it.
Lee is one of the first artists to recognise the importance of protecting the essence of the Korean painting tradition while incorporating western motifs. He is considered as one of the most important Asian painters of his time, being at the crossroads of both east and west. The artist also has a museum dedicated to him in Daejeon.
