Life & career

Son Jae-hyeong (孫在馨, 1902-1981), pen name Sojeon (素荃), was a calligrapher from Jindo, South Jeolla. He raised the artistry of Hangul lettering by applying seal, clerical and running scripts; notable works include the Hangul signs Changgyeongwon and Hwarangdae and the Hanja Byeokpajin Victory Monument for Admiral Yi Sun-sin. He received the Seoul Culture Prize and the Arts Academy Prize and was a member of the first and second Korean National Academy of Arts.

He is widely known for bringing Kim Jeong-hui's Sehando (National Treasure No. 180) back from Japan after the colonial period, and was elected to the National Assembly in 1958 (4th) and 1971 (8th). Namuwiki lists him under the Moksa-gong branch.
