On the Special Occasion of Ji Eun Joo's "Internet Homepage" Open.
Romain Rolland once lamented that 'the air of are age is impure' and advised us to 'open the window'. What laments us now is the
impure air of the late 20th century featuring widespread materialism. That is way we are deeply impressed by the appearance of such pure souls as ms. Ji, so full of vitality and beauty which directly challengs hypocritical human conditions.
Recalling the words of John Keats, the English poet, "Beauty is truth, truth beauty", we hold deep' respect for Ms. Ji who struggles to reach ultimate beauty through truth. We believe that the right answer to the question What is life? is Striving be truthful. As. such, we are confident that Ms. Ji's "Internet Homepage" will show us the truth of life. Neither truth, good, nor beauty itself becomes art by chance.
Only through whole-hearted human efforts to embody truth, good, and beauty will art reach its ultimate goals. Encourages all of us with the desire to lead our lives more truthfully, more lovingly and more beautifully, the wish of Ms. Ji will have succeeded to a degree.
KIM Dong-gill, Chairman of the Pacific Era. Committee
