Famed Korean painters will turn K-pop female idols KARA into artwork, according to their agency DSP Media Thursday.
DSP said that prominent realist painters Won Jong-shin and Park Ki-ill have launched a project to create art posters featuring the members of KARA.
Won is a realist painter that will use a mixed media method of photographs and painting techniques for his piece and Park will use his own realist methods to draw the girls.
DSP explained that the pair launched the project in order to spread the general idea of art and that many people can enjoy another type of culture. "The mass public will be introduced to various forms of pop culture through this exhibition which feature their favorite stars."
