Impressed with the craftsmanship in the catalog you’re holding? Let us share its secret. If you’re involved in the communication arts or advertising industry––Snow Lion invites you on this first-ever, one-of-a-kind journey to showcase Seoul’s centuries-old, yet astoundingly modern print industry. Consider Korea only if you want world-class quality and massive savings on your next complex printing project. This trip is indispensable, as Snow Lion president Ron Barness personally introduces you to our preferred suppliers, printers and export experts while we’re on press check. You also take home rich memories of Seoul’s teahouses, temples, futuristic skyline, enduring Olympic legacy, exquisite food and world-class hospitality. We’ll take an overnight trip to Haeinsa Temple. It is the repository for the 1,200-year-old Tripitaka Koreana––the world’s most complete collection of hand-carved Buddhist scriptures on 81,000 wooden printing blocks––a precursor to Korea’s modern printing industry.
