Nanan creates flower arrangements to last a lifetime - Korea JoongAng Daily
Wednesday, March 31, 2021The enthusiastic response was even beyond my expectation. Nanan's window painting on display in Lower East Side, New York in 2007. The major popularity of “Long Long Time Flower” could lead to plagiarism. Are you concerned about that? I’ve already seen copycats! My Instagram followers keep me informed of such cases.
