DPRK painters display creativity in Mudanjiang

Kim Jacal, a 53-year-old oil painter from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, never thought he would have the chance to paint overseas.

Kim Jacal and another oil painter Jnun Hak arrived at Mudanjiang, a city in southeastern Heilongjiang, on July 20 from Pyongyang, capital of the DPRK.

They were invited to create oil paintings for about 20 days in "the creation base of the DPRK painters in China (Mudanjiang)", which was set up in 2011.
