And now it's time for our daily arts and culture segment with Michelle Kim. I hear she has two interesting exhibitions to start off the week. Hello Michelle.
Hello Conn-young.
So what are these exhibitions?
Well, these exhibitions aren't in a gallery but at the National Library of Korea, and they offer two perspectives on the items in their archive. Take a look at this clip for more.
April 23rd is World Book and Copyright Day.
To celebrate, the National Library of Korea is holding a media art exhibition in April, May and June that uses an advanced three-dimensional visual technology called holography.
The exhibition, "Hologram, Archiving the Object and its Memory" showcases 85 holographic artworks that depict images of rare artifacts and objects we use in our daily life.
Holography produces three-dimensional images called holograms by manipulating the light from a laser.
With this technique, the image changes as the position of the viewer changes, making the image appear three-dimensional from any angle.
There are more holographic images outside of the exhibition venue depicting rare books from the library's collection.
Elsewhere at the National Library of Korea, there's another exhibition that vividly portrays the legal culture of the Joseon Dynasty.
"Crime and Punishment in the Joseon Dynasty" will showcase the records of criminal investigations, legal proceedings and punishments during the period.
Ahn Hye-kyung, the library's antique book expert, talked about the reason behind the exhibition.
"We created this exhibition to shine light on the criminal investigation records, sentencing policies, legal changes and legal culture during the Joseon Dynasty."
The exhibition continues until June 28th.
