Kim Jae-hong (Korean: 김재홍) is a South Korean illustrator. He has held solo and group exhibitions presenting works based on the theme of "humans and nature as one."[1] In 2004, he received the International Children's Book Award from the Foundation Espace Enfants in Switzerland for his first Picture book, The Children of the Donggang River.[2]

Career

[edit]

Kim received the International Children's Book Award in 2004 from the Foundation Espace Enfants in Switzerland for his first Picture book, The Children of the Donggang Rive.[3] One of the original illustrations of the book, entitled Mother and Child, has been featured in the art textbook for first-year high school students in Korea.[4] Cat School (written by Kim Jin-kyung) released in 2001 was subsequently translated and published in Taiwan, China, Japan, and France. The book received Le Prix des Incorruptibles, a French children's literature award, in 2006. It is the only work from Asia to have been selected for the CM2/6e.[5] The book was officially invited to the Paris Book Festival.[6] In 2007, Yeong-I’s Plastic Umbrella received the Children's Jury Award at the Biennial of Illustration Bratislava.[3] In 2016, he produced illustrations for Taebaek Mountain Range, a novel series by Jo Jeong-rae. He has also created illustrations for works by Park Wan-suh, Kim Yongtaek, Kim Hyang-Yi, and Lee Guem-yi.

His illustrations often contain hidden illustrations. For example, the landscapes of rocks and the river in The Children of Donggang River contain hidden images of a large bird, a bear, a mother, a father and children. The forest scene in In the Forest features hidden images of a cicada, tigers, rabbits and dragonflies.[7]
