Greetings 2024 Korea Craft Designer Association International Exhibition to be held at The Photo Artists Society of Korea-Washington DC Gallery in the U.S. I’m very happy to be here, and with this opportunity, the Washington DC community and U.S. craft designers can experience modern craft design and the cultural heritage of Korea. And above all, I would like to deeply thank David Heisoep Hwang, chairman of The Photo Artists Society of Korea, and the members for inviting our association to this exhibition and for the tremendous amount of help. This 2024 Korea Craft Designer Association International Exhibition is the result of academic and practical design exchanges between different countries. The importance and direction of 21C Craft Design will be formed by this international exchange. In addition, I hope that this exhibition will give us a chance to think about the global trend of 21C with great interest in designing and the convergence of many regions and cultures. Now we have to think about the meaning of modern craft design in pursuit of beauty and strive to create great works. We must realize that it is the duty of craft designers to create a better world. Thank you again to KCDA members, including all overseas craft designers, for holding such a successful exhibition, and I hope that the exhibition of high-quality craft works will serve as an opportunity for Korean contemporary craft to become more recognized. Thank you very much. Lee, Hyung Kyu Chairman of the Korea Craft Designers Association
