The exhibition is a part of travelling exhibits in Europe which has been held 4 times in other 3 European countries (Northern Ireland, Ireland, Spain) during 2007-8. It will be a good opportunity to introduce new awareness of traditional Korean aesthetics and its significant value to British society and it is especially expected to introduce the uniqueness of Korean ceramic to the British art society which highly regards the harmony of tradition and modernity.
