MAGNETIC 5

MAGNETIC 5 is an independent riso printing and publishing studio based in Seoul, South Korea. It was founded by Park Lin and Kim Byungduck.
Our quest begins with discovering the hidden stories around us. We believe that art is closest to everyday life, and we make those stories into zines and books.
