OMG grandma is a grandmother who always says, ‘Oh, my God’, in every words she says. She now comes to Seoul to visit her son to travel all around before she dies! She pokes an old dog, ‘Bongji’ with her crane, scolds the daughter of her neighbor, also collects the signatures of elderly women picking up trash to help them, or minds other people’s business here and there. She warms the cold heart of city people wherever she goes, and finds out what her granddaughter Eun Ji wants! The story of the last winter with our attractive ‘OMG grandma’, who makes us laugh and impressed at the same time, is now presented with the point view of the dog, ‘Bongji’.

(Japanese) 幼い時、お母さんとお父さんが喧嘩をすると、いつもその間であたふたしていました。姉に助けてほしいとも思っていました。ところが時間が経つと、みんなどこかで何かの間に板挟みになってうろたえたり、時には苦しい思いもしながら、それでも輪の中で暮らしているんだと思うようになりました。そんな話を絵本に込めたかったのです。大学で数学を学んだ後、ドイツへ行って視覚デザインを勉強しました。今はドイツの小さな村で暮らしながら子供向けの本の絵を描いています。「オー・マイ・おばあちゃん（OMG grandma）」、「お母さんの心配工場（Mom's Worry Factory）」などの子供向けの本の絵を描きました。
