Prince Bata’s Playground

 

He joined the military service while working as a member of hang glider club in university.

 

When he was a soldier on leave with little time left in the army, he went hang gliding. He got handicapped in a fall accident he went through.

 

Even though he majored in art at university, he killed time by recording his daily life after getting handicapped.

 

In 2018, his children’s story won the prize in the annual spring literary contest of Chosun Ilbo.

 

After having confidence in writing, he is currently working as a webtoon artist who is talking about the world through his writing and drawing.
