For more news visit ☛english.ntdtv.com A North Korean painter who defected to the South is holding an exhibition in Seoul with his anti-communist works. He says the exhibition is his ultimate expression of being finally free from the communist state. In North Korea, artist Song Byeok wouldn't have been able to imagine drawing "Dear Leader" Kim Jong-il's head on top of the body of Marilyn Monroe.

STORY: A South Korean gallery has unveiled its "living paintings", whose characters are moving and talking, thanks to recent Information Technology (IT). 62 masterpieces such as the "Mona Lisa", "The Last Supper" and "The Arnolfini Marriage" have come to life in a whole new way thanks to IT. Little children, who struggle to appreciate the value of art, can now understand those masterpieces in a fun and easy way by interacting with the characters in the paintings. [Jung Hyun-hee, Kindergarten Teacher]: "Children used to get tired of watching paintings with boring explanations. Now they are having so much fun here because they can actually interact with the paintings. It's very different from other museums." Asked by young visitors at the gallery why she didn't have any eyebrows, a digitalized version of the Mona Lisa responded: "During the Renaissance period, when I was living, wide foreheads were regarded as an element of beauty in women. So many women shaved their eyebrows to make their foreheads seem wider". [Kim Hyun-jung, "Living Gallery" Public Relations Manager]: "This living gallery has a different concept of display from others.
