A Mission to Save the Penguins of the South Pole by the Baby Penguin Paul and his Friends"

The picture book, Red Muffler, garners attention from around the world for its dynamic, dimensional illustrations and sensual design. Red Muffler features the South Pole Base cook, Ian and the baby penguin Paul. They become friends, incubate abandoned penguin eggs and make the South Pole a place full of happiness, depicted through a wide variety of unique expressive techniques. By creating scenes that blend 2-dimensional illustrations and 2.5- and 3-dimensional shapes, taking photos of them and the applying graphics, Sen Woo has dedicated his passion and affection to every single scene. Red Muffler is Sen Woo's first picture book, and it embodies his experiences and know-how from working as an art director for animation, movies and design in many countries. As such, the book has garnered a lot of attention and praise from individuals in the publication field and also animators and designers around the world. Requests for a publishing review came from 23 countries at the 2013 Bologna Children's Book Fair. It was selected as the Bologna Children's Book Fair Most Unique Books 5 by the Italian daily magazine, Il Resto del Carlino. It also garnered much attention at book fairs around the world including the China Book Fair, London Book Fair and art book fairs at Milan and Florence. Sen Woo gave a lecture as the special guest at the Narni and Milani Art Book Fair.
He said that he started building the idea for this book after seeing a penguin sadly walking away from a South Pole base on a documentary program on TV. The story of the baby penguin Paul looking after penguin eggs, which were abandoned due to the climate change caused by global warming, and successfully protecting them with the friends he made delivers an adorable joy with an emotional touch. The story also depicts a fantasy world where animals and humans live happily together, asking the reader to sincerely think about the animals who are losing their habitats due to the destruction of the environment or the greed of mankind.
