Korean Calligraphy

Korean calligraphy is an ancient and exquisite art form of writing, and calligraphy has a simple but strong beauty. Koreans view calligraphy as a highly regarded form of art and highly technical art of writing which is part of the Korean tradition. Moreover, in Asian cultures, creating calligraphy is seen as an act of discipline, as something one does to train their mind, and is much more than just a technical exercise.
