Rockhe Kim’s ANATOMY DRAWING CLASS An introductory human anatomy drawing book for beginners of Rockhe Kim, published in Korea in 2019 and sold more than 100,000 copies. Rockhe Kim has been giving drawing lectures on YouTube channel and worked on Marvel Comics. Especially in Korea, this book has become sensational and has established itself as a basic book for those who dream of becoming cartoon, character, and animation writers as well as drawing. In 2023, this book has been reborn as an English edition and will head to the United States, the home of animation. It is hoped that this book would become a pioneer in promoting ‘K-Drawing’ not only in the United States but also around the world. |Recommended reading Rockhe wasn’t a genius, but at a certain time he began to resemble one. I felt happy just being able to observe a genius-in-the-making. Nonetheless, Rockhe needed an ample amount of time before he would showcase his drawings to the world. Now, that genius-in-the-making has made his know-how public and created a book. In the same way that a master will have a heroic vision that common people will never have imagined, this book will present a new world of anatomy drawing to many artists never before seen. -Hyunse Lee(Cartoonist, Professor of Comics and Animation Tech at Sejong University)
