Prologue
When I was in high school, I wanted to be an architect. And the dream have came today. In Yonsei University, I became an pre-architect of interior. No matter how I tried to avoid about buildings, what I really concern, see, hear and touch is about architectures. Before this project I was sick of black, gray and white color of Yonsei University campus, thus I need something to arrange my complicated mind. So, the first thing to clean my mind is to draw my campus much more colorful and then goes for it. This mission is not just hard English training, but matters of my heart. I'm sure that this project won't let me down and will make me refreshing.
First, I pointed many sites of Yonsei pride : Underwood Hall, Underwood Memorial Hall, Yun Dong Ju Monument, Amphitheater, Yonsei Hangul Monument, Cheong Song Dae Park, Severance, Dormitory, Gwang Hye Won and Samsung Hall where I’ll working this project.

Samsung Hall 513 Room, Tracing Papers, Colored Pencils, Camera and My Hand
01 Underwood Hall
May 28th
I hate rains! It was raining when I was in Underwood Hall. I touched the very cold surface of Underwood Hall, also I felt the tough wind that blew my Umbrella. However, I usually felt dry skin of hall, after few seconds I was seized by refreshing and clear green color. It was amazing. And, I could image the breathing of Yonsei founders and numerous people who passed Underwood Hall. Also, I could feel the scholar's passion and trial of academy.
The Underwood Hall sits between Stimson Hall and Appenzeller Hall with the three buildings forming a ‘U’ shape. It was named after H.G. Underwood, the founder of Yonhui colleage, which later developed into Yonsei University. It is a magnificent semi-Gothic stone building with a Tudor-style arched front entrance. The gothic style and students made time stop and showed us the collision with the past and present.
I backed to my colleage, Samsung Hall and entered 513 room then I drew a rough sketch with tracing paper.
Wow! It's too vague. ;( So, I emphasized the Tudor-style arched front enterance and semi-Gothic stone building.
Tra-la! Then, I colored this hall with my colored pencils.
Serene sky plus, It's the end. This is the Underwood Hall in color. : )
02 Underwood Memorial Hall
May 29th
It was also raining a lot and too cold to take a walk without outwear. However, the rain emphasized the green color. The curved path made me feel like I was in time trip and the serene atmosphere made me freeze.
The roof of the hall was made of Kiwa, which is traditional Korean roof material. It's so impressing!There were blurry light at the end of windows, I think, It have been used until thesedays or ghost of Underwood family.

The house was built by Dr. Horace Horton Underwood on the western slope of the Yonhui campus. And now, the house officially named “Underwood memorial Hall” as a tribute of sacrifice of the Underwood family. Also I could feel the hearts and efforts of the founders. There must be many hardships in the early years of the 20th century like persecution to Christian and coercion of Shinto worship than God. This is not just the cradle of Yonsei University but also the history of tolerance and sacrifice. I backed to my college, Samsung Hall and entered 513 room then I drew a rough sketch with tracing paper.
Too rough. ;(
And I colored.
03 Amphitheater
May 30th
(▲This picture with students comes from Yonsei Brochure)
And I climbed the slope to see the stage. The stage looked like theatron of ancient Greece. The stairs, which was named theatron, was made by using hummock and there was semi-circle orchestra at the bottom. It was so impressing that the amphitheater looked like hiding in Yonsei campus. Furthermore, over the roof, I could see the library and other buildings.
Trala~!

I think it is better that show the color trend and draw with color themes. Therefore, take a look at the history of color!
04 The Psychedelic 60's and The Earty 70's

Thus, the color of 60's represent it's social trend. There were Hot Pink, Grass Green, Vermillion Orange, Lemon Chrome, Cyan Blue and Bright Violet. It were very divese and clear color.
The 'eatrty' means not only earth, but also vulgar. In 70's, there were big economic recession, environmental movement and disco crowned king. Thus, the colors of 70' are Avocado, Burnt Sienna, Carafe, Harvest Gold, Rust and Corsair.
05 The Vibrant 80's and The Nuanced 90's
June 1stIn 80's, The economic upturned and people want more diverse and lifelike colors. And the MTV and other kind of visual media made pop music bigger. So, There were Lavendula, Radiant Orchid, Mauve Orchid, Ribbon Red, Rose violet and Royal Blue(Yonsei Color~!).
In 1990's, there was big issue to my parents, I was born. : ) Also, there were other issue. Aganist fussy of city culture, Grunge and graffiti(like doodle of wall)and Zen Style emerged. The colors of 90's are down fo the tone and very diverse such as Green, Gray, Blue, Yellow and Orange.

The day of 2000's is diverse society. Techonologies about minimalism and individualism were the key of success of business. Also, grobalization leaded to world issues and made lots of changes can erupt all over the world at the same time. And there were three primary colors and three primary of lights that intimate with all over the world like Red, Blue, Green, Yellow.

The Emerald represent many things : Regeneration, Rejuvenation, Well-Being, Elegance and Luxurious. I think this is so beautiful than any other color of gems. Emerald has power to make people refreshing than Ruby, Sapphire and so on.
08 Gwang Hye Won with the earthy 70's color!

This is Jeong Ja Gak which is yonsei memory center. Next to this building there are dolmens.
In South Korea, there are 30,000 dolmens which made 4,000~2,500 years ago.
These represent the image of Korea.
The groove at upside dolmen means love and wishes long live of dead person.
Gwang Hye Won is the first modern Royal Hospital in Korea. This was restored by the part of Yonsei centennial project in 1986.
