Choi Hanjin explores the discourses on scientific development and social changes through the concept of ‘cyborg’, a hybrid of humanity and technology. Throughout the artist’s oeuvre, a cyborg represents modern time and suggests prediction of future. The ‘cyberpunk’ series visualises the interaction between the humanity and technology. The text, symbols and lights that reference evolution of communications technology are incorporated to ready-made helmet or gas mask which resembles the human head. Furthermore, the helmet motif addresses human’s response to current environmental pollution―exhaust gas emission, radioactive matter, global warming― caused by scientific development. 4 Educuation 2010 - ASYAAF (Sunhshin Wonen’s University, Seoul) 2010 - Asia Top Gallery Hotel Art Fair (Hong Kong) Biography Choi Han Jin B.F.A. in Sculpture, Silla University 1981~ M.A. in Sculpture, Silla University Awards Solo Exhibitions 2015 - 7thYoung Artist Contest (Busan Citizen’s Hall, Busan) 2014 - 2ndBS Finance Group Young Artist Contest (BS 2016 - Solo invitation Exhibition (gallery artSOOP, Korea) gallery, Busan) 2016 - SoloExhibition (CITE INTERNATIONLE DES ARTS, 2012 - 2ndStreet Art Festival-participation prize (Jung-Gu Paris) Busan Metropolitan City, Busan) 2015 - Solo invitation Exhibition (gallery EM, Japan) 2010 - HAITAI Crown Doll Contest-Bronze prize (HAITAI, 2014 - Solo invitation Exhibition (gallery artSOOP, Korea) Seoul) 2011 - Solo invitation Exhibition (gallery ART3325, Korea) 2010 - 2010 Eco Environment Sculpture Contest-The grand 2011 - Solo invitation Exhibition (gallery idm, Korea) prize (HAITAI, Seoul) 2010 - Solo Exhibition (gallery Haemidang, Korea) 2009 - HAITAI Arts Contest-Special Selection (HAITAI, Seoul) 2009 - Kimhae Fine Arts Contest (Gimhae Art Center, Gimhae, Gyeongnam, Korea) Group Exhibitions 2008 - Tongyeong Scholarship Selection Tongyeong City (Gyeongnam, Korea) 2017 - ART MORA OPENCALL EXHIBITION (ARTMORA, 2008 - Misari Sculpture Contest (Misari Rowing Stadium, NEW JERSEY) Hanam, Korea) 2017 - ART BUSAN 2017 (BEXCO, Busan) 2008 - Environment Arts Contest (Gyeongsangnamdo 2017 - Gwanghwamun International Art Festival (Sejong Culture & Arts Center, Jinju, Korea) Art Center, Seoul) 2008 - Kyeongin Arts Contest (Bucheon Culture 2016 - OPEN STUDIO (CITE INTERNATIONLE DES ARTS, Foundation, Bucheon, Korea) PARIS) 2007 - Tongyeong Scholarship Selection (Tongyeong City, 2015 - Korea International Art Fair 2015 (COEX, Seoul) Gyeongnam, Korea) 2015 - Asia top gallery Hotel Art Fair (CONRAD HOTEL, 2007 - DAEKYO Sculpture Contest-Grand Prize (Seongnam Seoul) Art Center, Seongnam, Korea) 2015 - SEOUL OPEN ARTFAIR 2015 (COEX, Seoul) 2006 - Busan Fine Arts Contest (Busan Fine Arts 2014 - Mutation (Moonshin Museum, Changwon) Association, Busan, Korea) 2014 - Busan Young Artist (Busan Culture Center, Busan) 2006 - National Snow Sculpture Contest-Silver Award 2013 - Asia top gallery Hotel Art Fair (CONRAD HOTEL, (Taebaek Festival Committee, Taebaek) Seoul) 2005 - Busan Fine Arts Contest-Special Selection (Busan 2012 - We can find Seongbukgu artist!

These underground resources are buried around north-east mountain belong to GANGWON-DO province. In 1957, the first rail road called HAMBAEK-SEON (咸白線) was built and YEONGAM-SEON (榮巖線) was followed to be opened in 1955. But, to utilize the biggest mining areas scattered around JEONGSEON, the first part of JEONGSEON-SEON (旌善線) was built 20 Jan 1967. And, we extended the rail road into the deeper mountain side. In 1974, the construction was finally completed as the final route of AURAJI – GUJEOLLI station was built. Considering the economy scale of South Korea at that time, it was big news. So, even Mr. PARK JEONG-HEE president participated in the opening ceremony. But, because current Korea became the expensive cost country, the mining cost is losing the feasibility. Therefore, the quantity of residence people and transportation demand drop until 2000.

Field survey and water quality analysis were performed in July 2019, February 2020, and April 2020. Hydrochemical analysis of karst water (groundwater and surface water) showed that most samples were comprised of Ca-HCO3 and that water–rock interactions were a dominant factor compared to precipitation and evaporation (crystallization). For seasonal characteristics, water–rock interactions appeared more active in the dry season than in the rainy season. Calcite weathering was dominant in the dry season, whereas dolomite weathering dominated the rainy season. Moreover, the saturation indexes for the dry and rainy seasons were less than and greater than 0, respectively, corresponding to an unsaturation (oversaturation) state; thus, white precipitate distributed in the study areas was deposited in the rainy season. Finally, as a result of analyzing the hydraulic characteristics between regions, hydrogeological similarities were identified between Hamaengbang-ri and Yeosam-ri, and between Gyogok-ri and downtown Samcheok, which suggested hydrogeological connectivity between each of the pairs.

In today’s integrated society, these relationships help to promote cultural and commercial ties. Focusing on global opportunity, the City of Federal Way currently has two sister cities- Donghae, South Korea and Hachinohe, Japan. Established on April 1, 2000, the sister city relationship with Donghae, a South Korean port city, continues to grow both culturally and commercially. However, there is still room for growth in efforts to sustain this relationship. This briefing report addresses the government structure, growing economy, future plans for development, rich culture, and recent news of Donghae City.
