[Hwasun=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Young-gyun] Jeonnam Hwasun-gun (Governor Gu Chung-gon) announced on the 25th that it has appointed the internationally renowned calligrapher and painter ‘Han Han-guk, World Peace Artist’ as its ambassador.

Han Han-guk, a native of Cheongpung-myeon, is a world peace artist gaining international attention through his ‘World Peace Map,’ which conveys the culture, history, and peace messages of over 36 countries worldwide. He has received more than 80 awards in various fields, including being selected as a Proud Korean who has illuminated the Republic of Korea.

‘The Path of World Peace, Hwasun’ is a work that embodies the hope that the path to world peace will connect through Hwasun, reflecting the meaning of harmony in the place name Hwasun (和順).

Incorporating the dream of wishing for peace, the artwork places the shape of a bird of hope on the ‘ㅎ’ initial of ‘Hwasun.’

This piece uses a hand-stamp technique with 12 brushes and ink pads to depict a human figure, conveying a message of hope for a forever green Hwasun shining in the world. It is scheduled to be exhibited in the large conference room of the county office.

Governor Gu Chung-gon said, “I sincerely thank artist Han Han-guk for accepting the role of ambassador and donating the wonderful artwork ‘The Path of World Peace, Hwasun.’ I hope you will continue to work hard to further elevate the cultural status of the county and promote the premium brand of Hwasun.”
