==Article Transcript==
[[File:EF2017.1_Page_15.jpg|266px|thumb|right|]]
The Asia Caricature Convention in Jeju 2016 was held from October 4th to 9th 2016 at Ocean Suites Hotel in Jeju, which is the most beautiful island in South Korea.
ISCA KOREA has held minicons in Korea in 2010, 2013, and 2016. Over 100 artists participated in the first (2010) and second (2013) conventions. For the third (2016) international ISCA minicon in Korea, about 55 International artists participated from Taiwan, Hongkong, Japan, Singapore, America, Canada, and Korea. Though the Jeju government provided a free hotel, it was limited to only 50 artists.
This time, the Jeju government supported not only a 4-star, beachfront hotel, but also the seminar location, some meals, Korean BBQ, and a full day of Jeju free sketch tour. I was very lucky and happy to organize this convention in Jeju. The artists had a great time. It was very inspiring to see artworks from many new Asian artists.
The Last day, we gave awards to 30 artists for the winners of each competitions and winners for the con.
==Con Attendee Feedback==
'''Roger Hurtado''' (USA)<br>
This was my first convention in Asia. It was an amazing experience. I was surprised at the excellent quality and professionalism of all the artwork.
'''Han So Min''' (Korea)<br>
It was my first time attending an ISCA convention. For me, it was fantastic! Many foreign artists came to this convention, so I learned so many things from them. Thank you ISCA KOREA for making this great opportunity for me.
'''Yi-Yao Chang''' (Taiwan)<br>
The experience of joining the 2016 Asia Caricature Convention on Jeju Island was very unforgettable. There was the best organizer, Yonie, many talented artists from all over the world, fantastic accommodations, delicious food, an invigorating sea view and the lovely and considerate Korean staff. Hoping to visit Korea again, and I will be glad to join the next Asia Caricature Convention.
'''Jit Leong Chong''' (Singapore)<br>
The caricaturist friends I met were amazing. Besides learning from their different drawing styles, we got to mingle together longer with the activities arranged by Yonie. We had great fun! Looking forward to the next MiniCon!
'''Sam Gorrie''' (Canada) <br>
Thank you so much to ISCA Korea for putting on such an amazing convention and to the Island of Jeju for hosting and generously donating our hotel stay among other things. It was SUCH an amazing experience to visit this beautiful Island. ... I will never forget this experience. It is definitely one of the best caricature and travel adventures I have ever been on...
'''Pei-Ching Woo''' (Taiwan)<br>
Thank you very much ISCA KOREA for allowing me to participate in the Jeju convention. The beautiful scenery, food and cultural environment of Jeju gave me creative nutrition for my art. I hope to visit Jeju again in the future.
'''Kamal Dollah''' (Singapore)<br>
The convention was very well organised and we were impressed by the support and sponsorship given by the government. The retail competition involving the public gives us opportunity to mingle with the locals. Overall, it was one of the best ISCA convention I have attended.
'''David Wong''' (Hong Kong)<br>
The experience of this event was priceless. I hope there will be more events like this in the future, not only in Korea, but maybe in Taiwan or Hong Kong.
