Korean calligraphy of Ho Chi Minh’s prison diary exhibited
An exhibition displaying calligraphic works in Korean script based on the late President Ho Chi Minh’s “prison diary” poems, opened in Hanoi on May 21.
The event, organized by the Korean Culture Centre, showcased 35 works by 23 calligraphers from Gwangju and Jeollanam-do provinces in the Republic of Korea (RoK) as well as three calligraphers from Vietnam. The exhibition is part of activities to commemorate President Ho Chi Minh’s 122nd birthday (May 19).
This is the third time such an event has taken place in Vietnam. After Hanoi, the exhibition will be held in Ho Chi Minh City.
