Sketches at Jongno Book Store




21 x 14 cm


Days ago I visited Jongno Book Store located at the B2 in Jongno Tower. It was early in the morning after 10 am. A big table for readers was vacant but five compartments for one were full. People seem to like their own space even in big book store. I used pen and pencil. The above 2nd drawing was of a woman opposite of my seat. These days there are coffee shops inside a book store, which couldn't be imagined at my young age. Readers can recharge their phone or notebook, etc while reading in bookstore for free. A notice is on the table : Please bring one book once.

며칠 전에 종로 타워에 있는 서점을 갔습니다. 일찍 갔더니 큰 테이블은 거의 비어 있었는데 개인용 좌석은 금방 차더군요. 그 부분이 늘 이색적이어서 그려봅니다. 펜과 연필로만 그렸습니다. 과거의 서점 모습과 많이 달라져서 좋습니다. 자유로이 보고 싶은 책을 가져와서 읽을 수 있으니 감사할 따름입니다.
