About the Instructor:

Born in Seoul, South Korea, Hyejeon Jeon began as a little scholar of art history but took a full turn toward artmaking. She had been producing comic zines in Seoul until she moved to Columbus, Ohio to pursue an MFA in art at the Ohio State University. After graduating in 2020, she is currently working as a freelance illustrator while producing her own webcomic, “Mundane Villain.” Her comics draw upon Korean lore and her experiences growing up in modern South Korea.
