Memorializing Korea’s disappearing mom-and-pop shops gives artist courage to carry on and grow old

[1] Old ramshackle mom-and-pop stores have provided a lasting subject for Lee Me-kyeoung, a 53-year-old painter, from the human life cycle to childhood nostalgia, when no one even showed the slightest interest in them.

* mom-and-pop store : 소규모 가게, 영세한 가게

* lasting : 영속적인, 지속적인

[2] “When I started to draw small stores back in late 90s, people hated to see outdated and obsolete things,” Lee said during an interview with The Korea Herald. Lee has produced more than 450 pen drawings on mom-and-pop stores in small villages across the nation in the past two decades since 1998.

* obsolete : 더 이상 쓸모가 없는, 한물간

* pen drawings 펜화

* decade 10년

[3] “They tend to think of these old corner stores as remnants of poverty from the past, something that should be forgotten. But I didn’t think so.”

* remnants 흔적, 나머지, 잔존물

* poverty 가난, 빈곤

[4] She now adds new features in her paintings based on testimony from owners. Lee tries to have a good long talk with them whenever she finds a good subject for her work. 

* features 특색, 특징, 요소

* testimony 증거, 증언
