Korean craftspeople and readers of traditional trades
Worth noticing
The stated format uses the same five questions for every profile and lets subjects opt out of showing their faces.

Field notes

The homepage labels its presentation a “records layout sample” and introduces a No. 001 entry for Kim Hee-geon, a jar maker in Yeoju; it lists a 1,200° kiln and fourth-generation background. The described format is a one-hour workshop visit, process video and photographs, and the same five questions for each person, with faces optional. The project says each page can also serve as an English introduction with a QR code, directions, and ordering information.
