The Oesol International Typography Competition is specifically designed to rediscover the value of Hangeul's international typographic design and emphasize its importance amidst a rapidly changing media landscape and evolving design trends. It aims to recognize creative and high-level works that showcase original inspiration, creativity, and craftsmanship, regardless of the format—be it classic, digital, or innovative implementation.
In 2023, as part of the "Oesol Hangeul Hanmadang" festival, which will again be held on Hangeul Day, we are delighted to organize the Oesol International Typography Competition. We cordially invite submissions from respected and world-renowned typographers. The selected works will be showcased in a special exhibition at the Ulsan Arts Center as part of the 13th Oesol Hangeul Hanmadang festival in Ulsan this October. Furthermore, the festival will host a diverse and insightful international conference on lettering, images, and Hangeul design, featuring esteemed speakers from international and domestic backgrounds.
