The sixth scenery you can meet on Jeju Olle route 6 is a painter's house, called "Lee Jung Seop Memorial House". 🤣
"Lee Jung-seop" is considered to be the most loved artist by Koreans.💕
The painter spent the happiest days of his life with his wife and two sons while he stayed in Seogwipo.
Although he, who was born in 1916 in what is now North Korea, had to flee the Korean War to Seogwipo city .
Do you know why there are many crabs and fish in his paintings you could see on Leejungseop street?
That's because he felt sorry for them that he caught too much crabs to eat with his two sons.
Lee Jung Seop museum, now under reconstruction, will reopen in August next year.
