Western Fairytales Get Eastern Makeovers
Alice in Wonderland
Korean artist Na Young Wu’s manga style illustrations of characters in Western folktales wearing hanbok (traditional Korean formal wear) made the rounds on the Internet this past weekend. All of the photos I came across were really low resolution. So I went on a search for the largest versions of each image. Luckily, I just so happen to speak Korean, so I was able to navigate through random sites and forums on Naver (South Korea’s answer to Google) to find many of these hi-res images. I’ve provided the largest resolution files I could find, and came across a few other illustrations from the artist that I didn’t see on other sites.
