About

Woojin Jeon

Blending digital and handcrafted illustration, Woojin Jeon draws inspiration from cities marked by time and people in transit.


Woojin Jeon is a Korean illustrator based in Berlin.
She previously worked for several years at design agencies, focusing on web content and motion graphic, and is now active as an independent illustrator.

Her work is inspired by old cities, time-worn spaces, and the diverse people who pass through them.
Living far from home in an unfamiliar environment allows her to see even the most ordinary things from a fresh perspective — a space where imagination begins to grow.
Her illustrations aim to capture these moments with warmth and subtle humor.

While she primarily works digitally, she often incorporates traditional materials such as paper, pencil, paint, fabric, and clay to explore the textures and rhythm of handcraft.


Since 2019, her work has been featured in publications including The AOI and 3x3 Magazine, and she continues to develop her artistic practice through both personal and commissioned projects.
These range from books and posters to illustrations and clay character work created in collaboration with clients.


베를린에 거주하는 한국인 일러스트레이터 작가,


디자인 에이전시 등에서 웹 컨텐츠 다루는 일을 수년간 일해왔고, 현재 일러스트레이터로 활동하고 있다.

오래된 도시, 그곳을 오가는 다양한 사람들에게서 영감을 받는다. 다양한 국적의 사람들 그리고 이방인으로서 낯선 환경에 머무는 경험은 익숙한 것들조차 새롭게 바라보게 하고 상상력을 더하게 한다. 그 속에 따뜻한 시선과 위트를 담아 그림으로 풀어내고자 한다.

디지털 작업을 기반으로 하지만, 재료의 질감과 위해 종이, 연필, 물감, 천, 클레이 등 다양한 재료들로도 함께 작업을 시도하고 있다.


2019년부터 The AOI와 3x3 Magazine을 비롯한 여러 매체에 작업이 소개되었고, 이후로도 지속적으로 작품 활동을 이어가고 있다. 책이나 포스터 형태의 개인 작업뿐 아니라, 클라이언트의 요청에 따라 일러스트레이션과 클레이 캐릭터 작업 등 다양한 프로젝트를 진행하고 있다.
