Commissioned by Pyungyang Botanical Garden.

Happy Kim takes a rest on the lawn under a tree.

Happy Kim is one of 5 trolls in the exhibition “Mountain Trolls”.

Standing up Happy Kim would be over 13 meters tall. Luckily he is in a chill mood and likes to lie down and enjoy the view of Pyeonggang gardens, while local visitors play on his belly. He is made solely using local scrap wood with the help from local volunteers, from one of which he also got his name.
