Timeline

1945

Before and after the liberation of Korea from Japan in 1945, Huh's father had worked as a local policeman.

1947

Huh Young-man (born June 26, 1947) is a South Korean manhwa artist.

Huh Young-man was born Huh Hyeong-man in present-day Yeosu, a far southern coastal city of what is now South Jeolla Province, South Korea in 1947.

He was the third child of eight children born to father Heo Jong (허종) and mother Park Ok-jeong (박옥정).

1948

When the Yeosu Rebellion occurred in 1948, Huh's family was in danger of being killed by the rebels.

In contrast to Huh's father, his uncle was a communist, so that Huh's family was ironically protected by both sides.

However, Huh was later told that he and his mother could've been killed during an incident in which some communists captured his father.

This political conflict strongly influenced Huh's works such as Oh, Han River and Tajja.

After the Korean War was over, Huh's father worked for a while as an administrative officer at the Yeosu Office of Education, then later started his own business.

Huh's mother ran a kitchenware store which became successful since Yeosu served as a trading base between neighboring islands.

Huh had wanted to study Western painting at university but because his father's anchovy fishery business was declining, he gave up his dream.

Instead, Huh entered the manhwa world as an apprentice to a cartoonist.

1974

In 1974, Huh debuted with In Search for Home (Jipeul chajaseo) through a competition seeking new cartoonists hosted by the Sonyeon Hankook Ilbo (Boy's Korean Times).

His next comic, action-adventure Gaksital (lit. "Bridal Mask") was a big success, and Huh became famous.

Since then, Huh's works have been recognized for their literary value and have gained wide popularity among the public.

Several have been serialized in local dailies, including Sikgaek (lit. "Gourmet") for The Dong-a Ilbo, and Tajja and Saranghae (lit. "I Love You") for Sports Chosun.

His comics have also been adapted into films and television series.
