Seongil Hong makes pottery in his studio near Boseong, one of the main tea regions in Korea, which has given him a unique perspective on changes in tea culture. As this culture continues to change Seongil will keep changing with it as he pursues a balance of traditional Korean art and functionality. He focuses on creating tea ware that is both practical and uniquely beautiful; modern, but steeped in tradition. He strives to continue pushing the boundaries of his abilities of a potter and an artist.
