    ☆Dongjanggak refers to the art of engraving the seal on metal such as the seal of state or the Royal seal. The genealogy of the Dongjanggak-jang leads to Hwang So-san, Jeong Gi-ho(Seokbul), and Jeong Min-jo(Mokbul).

    Jeong Min-jo was born in 1944, and widely known as "Mokbul(a wooden image of Buddha)".

    Jeong Min-jo learned Chinese and calligraphy from his teenage years by naturally accepting seal engraving and calligraphy early on in the family atmosphere. He began to learn calligraphy in earnest from his middle school years.

    He gained unique materials and innovative ways of expression through 50 years of hard work, and also pioneered another realm from his father's world. Thus, so-called "the world of Dongjanggak of Mokbul" was formed, which combines calligraphy techniques, painting sense, and delicate engraving.

    The first private exhibition was held at the age of 27 in 1968 at the "Hee" coffee shop in Gwangbok-dong, and in April 1985, the second private exhibition 'Seokbul Mokbul'. The 3rd individual exhibition was first exhibited at the Korean Art Museum in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do in 1996, and the 4th individual exhibition ['Mokbul Jeong Min-jo jeon'] was held at Seoul Gallery Samgyeong in November 2002 from November 7 to 13, 2002. In March 2007, the 5th individual exhibition 'Wave rises with flowers blooming on an old tree' was held as an invitational exhibition of gallery Montmartre in Busan.
