Ancient Korean Sculpture
The sculpture of ancient Korea was dominated by Buddhist themes such as figurines and monumental statues of the Buddha and his followers, and large bronze bells for temples. Gilded-bronze was the most common material used by Korean sculptors, but they also used marble, stone, clay, iron and wood. Non-Buddhist sculpture includes masks, guardian figures for tombs, and carved poles, all of which were designed to ward off evil spirits. Initially influenced by Chinese art, Korean sculptors would go on to create their own unique style and themselves influence the sculpture of ancient Japan.

Korean history inspired Tiefling designs.
Bottom right was the original idea, a Joseon era Tiefling artificer alchemist named Peril, using a mix of herbal medicine and mean yet motivational commentary to keep everyone (mostly herself) safe.
Then, I wanted to try and draw versions for other periods of Korean history and other social classes, so we’ve got a Goryeo-inspired hairstyle on the top left, and a Joseon noblewoman on the top right.
I love getting hyper-focused on random shit in my free time, I guess. Currently painting the Goryeo version in acrylics! Patreon | Commissions | IG

Title: Moon River
Word count: 1,528
Rating: G
Summary: On Dal remembers everything, especially the woman he loves.
-
“Please don’t get hurt. Your life is precious.”
On Dal heard her say those words back to him, the same ones he had said to her so long ago. Perhaps, they were an echo now. They were reflected onto his memory on the surface of a cracked mirror.
The trouble was, he could only remember his name in his dreams, and this woman was the same. There were flashes sometimes. Splashes of color, lips moving, things being said.
The woman was always so beautiful. She had to be the most beautiful person in the world. His heart throbbed in his chest, threatening to jump out of his ribcage. She had the most melodic voice. She had fierce eyes and a passionate gaze. Her hair was long and silky, her hands were covered in callouses. She had a way about her that was different from any other person he had encountered in the mountain’s forest.
Yet, this specter of a woman was so small too.
He could see other things in his dreams. There were snatches of nights in which she woke up with a half-shout only to collapse in his arms.
Then there was the blood.

Period Dramas, we love them, they test your Knowledge on History and the Romances and Experience brought to life in front of your eyes, they MAY not be real people but it is the Fusion of those before you.
Today I'll be showing part 1 of Period Dramas you should watch, Minor Spoilers ahead tho
-Outlander
Tumblr media
Outlander is a very unique Drama, it portrays the Characters from their era where they lived, Claire, the Main Character, is from the 1940s suffering PTSD from WW2 as she firsthand experienced it from being a Combat Nurse.The Fact that she is already scarred tells you about the Age rating of this show.
In some Event, I'm not gonna spoil it, she is Transported back in time to the 1743, in Scotland, where she faces dangers she only read from History Books and Records, none of the Characters are exactly Progressive in the Time Period they lived and that's unique part of it, it doesn't force Progressive themes onto the Characters and actually depict what people like back then.
You can legitimately compare the people from the 1700s to the 1940s to the 1960s.
-Last Madame
Tumblr media
Hailing from my Country, Last Madame is a Netflix Series about a Girl who discovers the lives of Women from 1930s Singapore, the setting takes place in a Brothel, as in those times Women who wanted to find a Job and not be forced into marriage could only go to these places, it's a form of Freedom, that most people don't understand these days.
If you're looking for ✨ S t e a m y ✨ Romance, Rivalry and a Looming Threat of a World War 2, here's a Show to Watch.
-Scarlet Heart
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There is the Chinese and the Korean version, each taking place in a different Era, the Chinese one takes place in the Qing Dynasty (1636 to 1912) and the Korean one takes place in the Goryeo Period(918 to 1392), I can say that both installments are Tragic as hell, heartbreaking, Unrequited love stuff if you don't count Chinese version's Modern Day Sequel and Literal Death of Characters.
The Main Character Time Traveled to this Era, so do you want to be Destroyed in and out? This is the right one for you, however Personally I think the two Series happened in the Same Universe for some Reason.
-This Land is Mine
Tumblr media
Another Drama that also comes from my Country, it talks about Singapore in the 1950s, still suffering from the effects of WW2, it is apart of History that many Elderly Singaporeans still remember and it horrifies them, It talks about being Racial divide, the idea of Independence, Riots that happened that honestly told Countless stories that many still remember.
It's Available on YouTube and get ready for a Heartwarming Cliffhanger as you realize that the Character's stories are not supposed to be complete because the generation that lived in that time is still existing, it's a Good show.

Korean Hanbok
"The hanbok, also called Joseon-ot is traditional Korean clothing. It is worn not only by South and North Korea, but also by the joseon-jok (Korean-Chinese), a minority group in China. The term hanbok literally means “Korean clothing.”
Earliest visual depictions of hanbok can be traced back to the Three Kingdoms of Korea period (57 BC to 668 AD) with roots in the Proto-Koreanic people of what is now northern Korea and Manchuria; it can also be found in the arts of the Goguryeo tomb murals of the same period from the 4th to 6th century AD, where the basic structure of the hanbok was established at least since this period.
The ancient hanbok consisted of a jeogori (top), baji (pants), chima (skirt), and the po (coat). The basic structure of hanbok was designed to facilitate the ease of movement and integrated many motifs of Mu-ism (Korean shamanism).
These basic structural features of the hanbok remains relatively unchanged to this day. However, present-day hanbok, which is worn nowadays, is patterned after the hanbok worn in the Joseon dynasty, especially those worn by the nobility and royalty.
In the past, however, commoners (seomin), were not allowed to wear what is now known as hanbok and instead wore minbok (clothing of commoners) which was typically white or off-white in colours; the commoners were only allowed to wear hanbok on their wedding day and on special occasions."

Fai: In any case, it’s our job to make repairs while waiting for them to come home. I wonder if they’ll bring presents? Kurogane: So... where does that give you the right to relax and drink tea? Fai: Hm? Kurogane: Get to work! Fai: But I’m supervising Kuro-pippi’s hard work!
