As artificial intelligence reshapes how designers create art, the question of how they can preserve their creative roles and navigate an increasingly uncertain landscape took center stage at a panel discussion on Friday at Herald Design Lounge 2026. The panel brought together creatives from different backgrounds and countries, including Grammy-winning designer Stefan Sagmeister and Yu Ji-won, director of the Institute of Typography & Culture. The session was moderated by Lee Jin-joon, a professo

In an age when artificial intelligence allows anyone to produce polished, high-quality work with a tap of a finger, creators need to find their own perspective and develop work that is distinctly their own, according to Emmy-winning motion graphic designer Kim Gryun. Based in Los Angeles, Kim designs Apple TV prototypes following his tenure as lead animator at Elastic, where he created the main title sequences for HBO’s "The Last of Us" and "Doom Patrol." His work on both "The Last of Us" and Ap

From design professionals to aspiring students, attendees of the 2026 Herald Design Lounge found fresh ideas to bring back to their projects and studies. Held on Friday at Dongdaemun Design Plaza in Seoul under the theme “Beyond Visuals,” the event brought together some 400 creators working in graphic design, architecture and artificial intelligence. Visitors heard about how established designers and artists approach their work, giving them new ways to think about their own work. Lee Jung-min, a

At some festivals in South Korea this fall, a piece of paper can apparently do the waiting for you. A trail of A4-sized sheets of paper, each taped to the pavement, stretched for hundreds of meters along a sidewalk leading to the entrance of the Busan International Rock Festival on Friday, the first day of the three-day event. The sheets were marked with dates, phone numbers, the number of people in each group and notes indicating that the spots had been claimed. A similar scene unfolded in Inch

As artificial intelligence makes visual forms easier to produce, the value of design increasingly lies in how those creations serve people’s lives, Seoul Design Foundation CEO Cha Kang-heui said in congratulatory remarks at Herald Design Lounge 2026. Speaking Friday at Dongdaemun Design Plaza in Seoul, Cha linked the event’s theme, "Beyond Visuals," to the changing role of designers, placing greater emphasis on understanding people and their daily lives. "Understanding who will use something, in

Architects and designers who rely too heavily on what others have already created risk limiting their own imagination, architect Yoon Kyeong-sik said. "If we are moved by and aspire to what someone else has already made visible, we can only come in second," Yoon said at Herald Design Lounge 2026 on Friday at Dongdaemun Design Plaza in Seoul. Addressing the event’s theme, "Beyond Visual," Yoon said both art and architecture can be seen, touched and experienced, while the thoughts and choices behi

This year's event will run through Oct. 15 in the southeastern South Korean city of Busan with 247 official selections from 59 nations, which marks the biggest slate since 2019, according to organizers.

BUSAN — The Busan International Film Festival opened its 31st edition Tuesday with a small-scale anthology film. Hours earlier, organizers had sidestepped questions about a political thriller whose entire team pulled out of the event amid fierce backlash. At a press conference for the opening film, "The Table: Day and Night," a reporter asked director Kim Jong-kwan to weigh in on the controversy, raising concerns over apparent political pressure. Programmer Jung Ji-hye, who oversees the festival

Seoul police began protective measures for actor Yoo Hae-jin on Tuesday after protests outside his home and online threats over his role in "The Assassin(s)," a film accused by conservatives ciritcs of distorting history. Seongbuk Police Station said it acted at his agency's request, providing him with a smartwatch, registering him in the emergency response system and stepping up patrols around his home. No dedicated protection officers have been assigned. Earlier Tuesday, Seoul's police chief s

The Jarasum Jazz Festival opens its 23rd edition Friday in Gapyeong, Gyeonggi Province. This year it has built its program around France, and its most unusual stage features artificial intelligence.

Chanel's signature tweed suits and a return to the knee-length skirt anchored the French house's spring-summer 2027 collection, unveiled at the Grand Palais in Paris on Monday. The show marked one year since artistic director Matthieu Blazy's debut at Chanel. While the lineup leaned on the house's classic tweeds, Blazy wove in modern twists throughout, loosening, sheering and reprinting the fabric most closely tied to the brand. Tweed was opened up into a wide windowpane print with mesh panels o

For artificial intelligence artist Yoon Seok-kwan, who is better known as “Keepkwan,” the creative process begins away from the keyboard. He walks through Seoul Forest, takes photographs and sketches. Recently, he took up pottery and bonsai — the traditional Japanese art of growing, pruning and shaping miniature trees in small pots — to rediscover the joy of working with his hands. “These help me develop the experience and judgment that guide my work,” he said in a talk titled “Human Mode On” at

Is there anything as fun as watching the countryside whiz by from a train car? How about a little train trivia? See how you do on these 10 questions.

A new series of rambles cuts the 185-mile trail into bitesize portions reachable by train, with urban beavers, the Devil’s Chair tor and some delicious food along the wayFew pubs boast a more idyllic setting. As I emerge from the woods after a 15-mile hike, The Bridges, on the banks of the Onny River, in the rolling south Shropshire hills, glistens in the late afternoon sun.

Ancient pottery from Tampa Bay appears to have been made by migrant craftspeople who brought specialized Mississippian pottery-making knowledge hundreds of miles south. Remarkably, they even incorporated crushed fragments of older homeland pottery into new vessels, preserving a physical link to their past across generations.

“At the moment, it’s about 23 degrees Celsius [73 degrees Fahrenheit],” says new hotelier Cheryl Kwok, looking out of her window on a recent overcast afternoon. “The rainy season is just about to start, so we’ve got a little drizzle. At night, it might drop to 14 or 16 degrees.” It may come as a surprise that Kwok, a native Singaporean and former Hong Kong resident, is based in Bali. The island is not exactly known for sweater weather or heated swimming pools, but that is precisely what she...
