HONG KONG, Oct. 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- This October, Harbour City introduces the Art & Culture of Korea to share the "Korean Wave" phenomenon with Hong Kong citizens. Korea's popularity has risen internationally from Korean music, movies and fashion -- and now its growing art scene is coming into the spotlight.
Harbour City has always been proudly promoting the arts. As of this October, Harbour City in association with the Korean Consulate, bring in the 3rd "Festive Korea". A series of art events will be held, including the exhibition of popular Korean star Ku Hye Sun's exclusive art collection "After Image" from October 9th to 27th, 2013. Her work showcases a never-before-seen series of work evoking her inner dreams, hopes, and childhood memories.
Korean TV Series "Boys Over Flower" rapidly shot Ku Hye Sun to fame as a new generation of rising South Korean stars. Her career began as a singer and actress, then to a director and now an artist and composer.
From October 9th to 27th, Ku Hye Sun represents herself as an artist at Harbour City. Paris Moon and Moon Gallery in Hong Kong jointly organized the first solo art exhibition to be named "After Image" -- a series of works inspired by dreams, hopes and childhood memories. Sun's 6-year-old has also started painting; she expressed her inspiration coming from her treasured surroundings including family, friends and pets, and her works often carrying on their emotions.
As a popular actress, Ku Hye Sun's career has always been the focus of attention and her appearances have also been a subject of topic. Sun hopes her fans and art lovers will enjoy her exhibition "After Image", and also understand her inner thoughts and personality outside of the acting world. During Sun's interviews she mentioned: "Aside from being an actress there are many things I'd like to try. I like writing so I want to become a screenwriter; because I like drawing I want to become an artist. What I aspire to be is a movie director, if there is an opportunity I want to direct a short film." To reach her goals, Sun fully immersed herself into the arts.
