1. The Explanatory Notes on the Proper Sounds for the Instruction of the People
The shape of strokes that refuse to be written with a brush
The emergence of Jeongeum was a transformative Gestalt revolution, creating an entirely new form of beauty.
The form of Jeongeum presented in the Haerye became a fundamental Gestalt of rebellion—a defiance against the very essence and aesthetics of calligraphy,
which had long ruled the East with Wang Xizhi at its pinnacle. It was as shocking as the appearance of computer graphics in the world of traditional landscape painting.

Jeongeum and Gothic typefaces reject variations in brush or pen thickness, favoring vertical and diagonal structures instead.
They embody a deliberate rejection of traditional calligraphic conventions and pursue accessibility and popularization.

2. Gungche
The pinnacle of beauty born from the Joseon Dynasty
Emerging as a reaction against the aesthetics of calligraphy, Jeongeum reached its ultimate crystallization in Gungche.
Not long after its creation, the logical Gestalt of rebellion that Jeongeum once embodied was lost— only to reemerge in the 20th century as a Gestalt of everyday beauty.

Gungche and Copperplate share a foundation in the aesthetic consciousness of calligraphy,
rooted in formal and classical script traditions.

Research exploring the stroke weight and rhythmic
flow inherent in classical calligraphic techniques.
In parallel, experiments were conducted to
combine a 45-degree angled structure—
a form
compatible with the classic calligraphy of the
alphabet—into a unified pattern composition.
