Fall 2020
Saint Louis, United States

Hangul, the Korean alphabet, is evaluated as the world’s most outstanding alphabet, in which its creative spirit is “independence, love for the people, and practicality.” By foregrounding Korean typographic history, Hangul, and showing how political and social shifts influenced its development, this poster provides a counter narrative to a modernistic and Anglo-centric portrayal of graphic design history.
The size of the poster is A1 format (23.39 x 33.11").
