The Centro Cultural Coreano<\/strong> (Paseo de la Castellana, 15) presents the first Webtoon<\/em> exhibition, WEBTOON: Gateway to Reality and Fantasy,<\/em><\/strong> at its Han-ul Gallery from 19 January to 29 February.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Webtoon is a term composed of ‘web’ and ‘cartoon’, and encompasses the presentation of Korean comics in digital format, accessible through online platforms.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In collaboration with KOMACON (Korea Manhwa Contents Agency),<\/strong> this exhibition presents two Korean webtoons, Sweet Home<\/em> and Rebirth in Paradise,<\/em> with the aim of conveying a positive and hopeful message to start the New Year with good energy.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The exhibition invites reflection on solidarity and altruism through Sweet Home,<\/em> where the characters face desperate situations without losing the flame of hope. On the other hand, the main vignettes and dialogues of Rebirth in Paradise,<\/em> imbued with Eastern philosophy, provide an opportunity to reflect on death and everyday problems, giving a deep insight into our own lives.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For the closing ceremony, the Centro Cultural Coreano will invite Gosaribaksa,<\/strong> multi-award-winning author of Rebirth in Paradise,<\/em> and M\u00edriam Bonastre Tur,<\/strong> Spanish author of Webtoon, and hold a talk on the Webtoon industry and its fantasy genre works.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n At the opening ceremony, which will take place on Friday 19 at 18.30, there will be a quiz show and participation in a competition about Webtoon and the exhibition, with many prizes.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Then, at 8 p.m., the event will be brought to a close with a talk entitled Cruce de miradas en Webtoon: la fantas\u00eda como lazo de uni\u00f3n entre Corea y Espa\u00f1a,<\/em><\/strong> with Gosaribaksa and M\u00edriam Bonastre Tur. Also, on 29 January at 6 p.m. in the Centre’s Multipurpose Hall, Gosaribaksa will take part in a workshop at the University of Design and Technology (UDIT) and will attend the Valencia Comic Fair 2024.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" From 19 January, the Centro Cultural Coreano presents the first Webtoon exhibition, WEBTOON: Gateway to Reality and Fantasy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":70971,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"jnews_override_counter":[],"jnews_post_split":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[178,176],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-81945","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-culture-art","category-leisure"],"yoast_head":"\n
