Worldwide Street Art Series - Korea
Embark on a wild, graffiti-fueled romp through the vibrant streets of "Spraycation: Korea," a collection that thrusts you into the epicenter of Asia’s rising street art scene. Despite Seoul’s contemporary status as a global hub for fashion and youth expression, in the early 2000s, graffiti artists had to navigate a landmine of conservative values and cultural taboos. However, that didn’t stop these 4 maverick graffiti artists from arming themselves with spray cans and taking to the streets, transforming the city into a thrilling battleground where creativity confronted tradition. Unaltered and unedited, these 8 representative works serve as unfiltered snapshots, capturing the very best of the exhilarating clash of colors, cultures, and countercultures that laid the foundation for Seoul’s emergence as an international graffiti destination.
On a beautiful day in March 2015, I found myself strolling the neighborhood of Mullae with two other artists, a Korean girl, and an English guy. Our mission: to find the perfect wall. After scaling a few rooftops, we clambered upon a perch big enough for all of us, and unanimously decided to paint a face. As we improvised on-site, I envisioned a lively, underground cartoon-style warrior taking shape on the wall.
The mural gained praised from pedestrians and lasted a glorious three years. Yet, one day, with no warning, the rooftop was blanketed in white paint, erasing all traces of our artwork and shared moment together.

In the heart of Sindorim, Seoul's old metal workers' neighborhood, I stumbled across a weathered wall that begged for artistic transformation. Against a backdrop of textured metal blues, I constructed my own biomechanical jungle where rocks, flowers, leaves, and metallic debris seamlessly fused together, giving birth to a singular landscape that breathed life into the urban surroundings.

Graffiti on a sidewalk tunnel called the Rabbit Hole located in Sinchon, Seoul. It features WEZT characters in a classic wild style In the heart of Sincheon neighborhood lies “The Rabbit Hole,” a destination for raw and rebellious types. Within the tunnel’s depths emerges an unmistakable WEZT character rendered in classic “Wild Style” graffiti, a throwback to the roots of our artform in New York city.
Spray on wall / 2.2 x 4.5m/ 2023
The iconic WEZT character now sits on the shutters of a local factory in the heart of Mullae neighborhood in Seoul, renowned for the clang of its ironworkers. This area, where loud factories and cozy cafes coexist, buzzes with activity on weekdays when laborers are in full swing. However, come the weekend, the alleys slip into a tranquil peace, making it hard to spot anyone. Eager to infuse vibrancy into these quiet nights, I collaborated with other artists and the owners of the factories to breathe new life into their still shutters. The result? Approximately 50 meters of industrial landscape transformed into a creative playground, even in the quiet of the night.
Spray on wall / 4 x 2.8m/ 2021
In this artwork, characters joyfully engage in graffiti on the weathered walls of Seongsu-dong in Seoul, capturing the carefree spirit of street art. The scene radiates the romance of graffiti writers, who, at any time, take to the streets to leave their vibrant drawings on the aging urban canvas.

This artwork, towering at 7 meters in height and stretching 4 meters wide, was brought to life in Aewol, Jeju Island. Inspired by the playful notion of penguins immersed in street culture on the island, it offers a fragmented glimpse into the exhilarating world of graffiti and skateboard adventures

"Euljiro Mundeok" pays homage to the historic avenue in Seoul, named after the revered 7th century military leader Eulji Mundeok, who saved Korea from an advancing Chinese army. This artwork seamlessly blends the essence of ancient Korean warrior armor with traditional carvings, embodying the enduring link between the past and present. The link of the ancient to the contemporary is also present in the relationship to metal between the armor and the craftsmen who currently work in Euljiro.

In Korea, spray paint is noticeably more expensive than in Europe, which affects the way artists interact with street murals. Here, many people use brushes. Since my arrival in 2016, I’ve also adapted this approach to challenge myself, a shift that has allowed for a more intricate and detailed execution, particularly in lettering and finer details. This naturally lead to a more pronounced expression of my own graphic style during the creative process, which was heavily influenced by underground comics from my youth.

Boyane Zelechowski (AKA "Boyane”) is Seoul-based graffiti artist who has proven himself a significant influence on Korea’s international graffiti scene. Originally from France, Boyane brought a fresh perspective to the Korean streets when he moved to Seoul with his Korean wife over a decade ago, captivating audiences with his vibrant illustrations and a skillful interplay of contrasting colors. His work seamlessly integrates with the historical charm of Seoul's streets, buildings, and exterior walls, quickly establishing Boyane as a leading figure in Korea's street art scene. Boyane has participated in numerous international exhibitions, illustrations, and corporate projects.
Although Lee Seok-Kyu (aka WEZT) is certainly a graffiti artist, he prefers to think of himself as a “Wall Explorer,” a man of global taste. After “exploring walls” (ahem, painting) in over 30 countries and collaborating with world famous megastars and brands such as BLACKPINK, J-Hope (of BTS), KIA Motors, Samsung, and KG Mobility Tivoli, we say he’s earned the title. Due to the raw nature of his work and the clear respect he pays to the past, he is a rare breed of graffiti artist that is well-respected by casual pedestrians and graffiti aficionados alike, especially in his native city of Seoul. WEZT is currently a member of the graffiti crews BAMC and SKA (based in LA).

Artime Joe is one of Korea’s most important and influential graffiti artists. Since founding JNJ CREW in 2001, he has been instrumental in chronicling the evolution of Korean street art, from its humble beginnings in the early 2000s when there was no graffiti to commanding stages in hip-hop and B-boy performances. Known for his imaginative reinterpretations of international cultural icons like Michael Jordan, Bugs Bunny, and Dragon Ball characters, he introduced "The Cappers" (Cap Man), a distinctive character that has become his most recognizable creation. Beyond national borders, Artime Joe joined the international graffiti crew Stick Up Kids in 2010 and has since travelled to over 20 countries for exhibitions and mural projects across Europe, Asia, and North America. As one of Korea’s most respected Korean graffiti artists, Artime Joe continues to leave an indelible mark on the global graffiti landscape.

His distinct graffiti style, a fusion of underground comics and 19th-century European painting, transforms forgotten corners of Korea—abandoned factories, old walls, and underground passages—into whimsical worlds of fantasy and fairy tales. Drol's ability to seamlessly blend unfamiliar elements with the historical backdrop of his adopted home has solidified his status as one of Korea's most important and recognizable graffiti artists. Beyond the streets, he showcases his artistic versatility through illustrations, exhibitions, installations, and tattoos. Having left his mark in France's International Biennale and various residency programs, Drol continues his artistic journey in Korea, collaborating on projects commemorating the 130th anniversary of diplomatic relations between France and Korea, and even joining forces with industry giants like Sony Pictures and Mini Cooper
