A feature interview with painter Shin Jang-sik, published in 〈Magazine SOOP〉(2018-08-28), the official magazine of the Korea Forest Service. Opening with the story of 〈Mt. Geumgang from Sangpaldam〉(2001) hung in the 2018 inter-Korean summit room at , the article traces the artist's three-decade trajectory — from the 〈Arirang〉 series of the 1988 Seoul Olympics era, through the shift to in 1992, his first visit to the North in 1998, and the 2018 Metropolitan Museum 〈Diamond Mountains〉 exhibition. The artist later republished the full text on his own blog as accompanying material for the 2020 Dongduk Art Gallery exhibition 〈Mt. Geumgang — Hope〉, weaving this feature into the exhibition's contextual archive.
