Korean dolls made by Lee, SeungOk.

Lee, SeungOk is a traditional Korean doll maker.
She is a handicapped person by infantile paralysis. However, she has started to work since she recognised the fact that she can express what she cannot do by making dolls. (she was 20 years old at that time)
Her art work is 100% hand-made and all dolls are delicate and realistic.

Now that's spectacular talent right there. These dolls reflect the real people that they portray. The gisaeng and the scholars' clothes are noteworthy - the details are nicely-crafted. One of the good things about handcrafted dolls is that you can completely choose the type of clothes, accessories, and designs.
