Discuss the differences between Korean culture and other cultures. 나래 Narae 아자니 Ajani Korean paper, or Hanji, is made from the bark of the mulberry tree. A durable paper, the best Hanji can last 1,000 years. Producing the paper is a notoriously slow, laborious process. In the hands of a master artisan, however, the material can assume countless manifestations, from books and wicker baskets to lamps and paper dolls. Its longevity is, in part, thanks to its fexibility. Nowadays, artists and designers are using Hanji for a whole new range of applications, including decorative arts and even clothing. Also in this issue of KOREA, we travel to the mountain wilds of Jeongseon, talk with renowned illustrator Wooh Nayoung, look at overseas investment in Korea’s entertainment sector, explore the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and more. _ Editorial staf, KOREA 아한국 나이로 스물세 살이에요?

In what ways is your country diferent from Korea? Two aspects of Korea people often fnd interesting or challenging are the practice of eating with chopsticks and a spoon and the practice of using honorifcs when addressing people who are older.
