Initially trained under Kim Man Sul, he honed his skills as a stone craftsman for over a decade before earning a scholarship to a prominent American art college. His artistic trajectory shifted when he collaborated with his mentor on a life-size bronze replica of China's Boshin Bell, igniting his passion for bronze sculpture.
