A comparative look at four different Korean papermakers, all using the traditional sheet formation style (webal technique): Jang Yong Hoon of Jang Ji Bang in Gapyeong, Shin Hyun Seh of Shin Hyun Seh Traditional Hanji in Uiryeong, Jang Eung Yeoll of Wonju Hanji in Wonju, and Jang Seong Woo of Jang Ji Bang in Gapyeong.
This style of papermaking has become quite rare in Korea but produces a strong, thin sheet with no dominant grain direction.
