Kimyounggap Photo Gallery Dumoak In Jeju Island

There exit the unexpected great persons in history. The rainy day made us find the one of the great man at the gallery in the name of Dumoak.

For several month ago, one of my friend recommended to visit Kimyounggap Gallery.
So I suggested my mom and colleagues to go to that Photo gallery.
Stooping by photo gallery was not bad option in that rainy day.

Gallery was far from the caffe 901.
After one hour riding, we got to arrive at the gallery dumoak.

The photographer “Kimyounggap” was got to be famous after his death of Lou Gehrig disease.
He died in 2005 at the age of 48 years old.

He had took the photos until he died and made the gallery.

He didn’t get married and dedicated himself for the photo of Jeju island.
The photos he had took were estimated more than 200,000, mostly about the panoramic scenery of Mt. Hanra.

The name of gallery “Dumoak” is an old local name of Mt. Hanra.

When entering into the gallery, the garden was waiting for us. It was a beautiful garden.
Only with This garden it was worth for dropping by.

But more impressive things in the garden were lots of sculptures. Those soil sculptures suited this gallery.

It was banned to take the photos of inside of the gallery.
But the atmosphere of the garden looks like enough to introduce the galllery.

It was very nice place to take a rest for a while.
I bought his photo book and presented mom for her drawing.
