At the Comics Art Museum, an exhibition about the rise of the Korean comic strip is on until 9 January. Besides portraits of authors, there is also a manhwabang - a Korean comic book library - and a webtoon zone, about the now enormously popular digital comics. "When you go to Korea, you see people on public transport constantly scrolling on their smartphones while reading these webtoons. On the Naver platform, there are 6.2 million reading sessions a day."
