Our Blues artist Jung Eun-hye joins Yangpyeong community for creative work

Jung Eun-hye, known for her role in the drama Our Blues, visited a Yangpyeong studio established in 2021 to paint alongside 20 artists with developmental disabilities. The community members, who refer to each other as artists, work together to sustain their creative activities through shared artistic labor.

There is a space where 20 young people with developmental disabilities gather to continue their artistic labor. Established in Yangpyeong in 2021, this studio is a place where individuals who love painting and enjoy creative activities gather to draw together, exhibit completed works, and build a community.

Sustainable creation through togetherness rather than solitude

The working method here does not stop at individual tasks. It is based on the belief that creative activities can be sustained much longer when forming a community and working together rather than continuing work alone. The studio brings together artists with diverse personalities. From artists who love celebrities to those who love heroes from comics or games, they express their respective interests through drawings and interact with their colleagues.

The members of the studio build a sense of solidarity by calling each other "artists." From the youngest to the eldest artists, they mingle to draw, set up tools, and share their daily lives. For them, painting is more than just a personal hobby; it is a process of artistic labor performed together within the community.
