Shin Dong Wu (1936–1994) was the most important South Korean comic book artist of his time. He was born in Hoeryeong in North Hamgyeong Province, but moved to Seoul with his mother when he was eleven years old. He studied applied art at Seoul National University and began producing comic strips for various journals. He is most famous for his Hong Gildong comics, which first appeared in 1965 in the children’s newspaper Sonyeon Joseon Ilbo and were also published in book form starting from 1968.
