"The process of cording and weaving hanji (Korean handmade paper) by a
master weaver, Na Seo Hwan. He is a 3rd-generation master who learned
from his father, who learned from his grandfather. He has also developed
a more effective and efficient way of cording paper, which is different
from the way most paper weavers work. This ancient paper craft, known
formally as noyeokgae, still exists in Korea today but the intense
labor, time, and strength required for it means that very few masters
remain, and even fewer serious disciples."
Special thanks to my teacher, Na Seo Hwan.
Thanks to the U.S. Fulbright program for the time and funding to make this research possible.
