Kim Pyeonghyeon, widely known as a cartoonist with exceptional creative ideas, views common things in our daily lives?such as food, objects, and animals?from a different perspective. He then draws them as single-panel cartoons. From scissors and stub pencils to cats and roses, he fills his cartoons with both fun and meaning, compiling them into the book Discovery of Cartoons. Introducing himself as "I am a cartoonist. I am always thirsty for creative ideas," Kim Pyeonghyeon finds materials in everyday life and cleverly reverses their meanings, as suggested by the subtitle "Stories from Daily Life." His inventive imagination and creativity are impressive. He encourages readers with a smile, saying, "The moment readers silently smile?that is the true 'Discovery of Cartoons,' isn't it?"
