On Monday, a tweet about a traditional Korean painting-inspired calendar sold on the National Museum of Korea’s website went viral.
“The calendar is so pretty and the garden painting on it becomes more and more complete by flipping through each month. It is like enjoying a different piece of art every month,” the Twitter post said, accompanied by a few pictures of the calendar.
