Bonds of the Heart, Waves of Resonance.
In 1763, after Joseon - the ancient Korea - established diplomatic relationships with Japan, a Joseon delegation was sent to the city of Akamagaseki, Japan. At night, calligraphers and their disciples met. An intellectual debate ensued in the most sophisticated form, not through speech, but through calligraphy of Chinese characters.
1763년, 조선이 일본과 국교를 맺은 후, 조선의 사절단이 일본의 아카마가세키라는 도시로 건너갔습니다. 밤이 깊어지자, 글씨를 예술로 여기는 이들과 그들의 제자들이 한자 서예를 통해 말 대신 심오한 지적 논쟁을 벌였습니다.
