"Kim Seong-hwan (8 October 1932 – 9 September 2019) was a South Korean artist and cartoonist, notable for having created and perpetuated the longest-running comic strip in Korea. Kim is also known by his pen name, which is Gobau ("strong rock"). The pseudonym dates from the summer of 1950 when he was trying to avoid getting into trouble with North Korea troops in Seoul.Salmon, Andrew. "An Artist at War, 1950" War artist In 1950, Kim was an 18-year- old student and a part-time magazine illustrator. When North Korean forces surged south, his drawings recorded the events which were happening around him.Salmon, Andrew. "A Cartoonist at War: 'Gobau's' Korea, 1950," The Asia- Pacific Journal, July 13, 2009. Kim sketched refugees and soldiers who were fleeing the onslaught of North Korean troops."A teenage cartoonist’s diary of horrors," JoongAng Ilbo. July 10, 1010. This sketch by war artist Kim Seong- hwan, titled Near Donam Bridge, depicts refugees fleeing Seoul in June 1950 during early days of the Korean War. His artwork is a visual account of the lives of civilians swept up in the periphery of the Korean War.Gowman, Philip. "Remembering the Battle of the Imjin at the Korean Cultural Center (KCC)," London Korea Links. July 28, 2010. After Seoul was liberated in September 1950, Kim was employed as a war artist by the South Korean Ministry of Defense. Comic strip Kim Seong-hwan worked for various publications during the Korean war;Comiclopedia, Kim Seong-kwan and his career flourished in the decades which followed. Kim's most notable creation was the character "Gobau", who first appeared in Dong-A Ilbo in 1955. This comic figure is old man with round eyes, big nose, mustache and with a single tuft of hair on top of his head. The adventures of this irrepressible and laconic old man appeared in 14,139 episodes across the span of 50 years. This became the longest-running Korean comic strip. Kim's sense of humor was sometimes provocative. For example, the comic strip caused an uproar when he drew prime-minister Jang Taek-sang bitten by a dog. Another time in 1958, Kim was imprisoned by Syngman Rhee's regime for a satirical comic he drew regarding the presidential Blue House, showing people carrying buckets of manure out of the building. Afterwards, Rhee's second-in-command Lee Ki-poong attempted to make peace with Kim, and requested that Kim draw Rhee's life story. However, Kim rejected that request.

"Rice protein is a vegan protein isolate that is an alternative to the more common whey and soy protein isolates. Brown rice can be treated with enzymes that will cause carbohydrates to separate from proteins. The resulting protein powder is then sometimes flavored or added to smoothies or health shakes. Rice protein powder has a more distinctive taste than most other forms of protein powder. Like whey hydrolysate, this flavor is not effectively masked by most flavorings; however, the taste of rice protein is usually considered to be less unpleasant than the bitter taste of whey hydrolysate. This unique rice protein flavor may even be preferred to artificial flavorings by consumers of rice protein. Rice protein is commonly mixed with pea protein powder. Rice protein is high in the sulfur-containing amino acids, cysteine and methionine, but low in lysine. Pea protein, on the other hand, is low in cysteine and methionine but high in lysine. Thus, the combination of rice and pea protein offer a superior amino acid profile that is comparable to dairy or egg proteins, but without the potential for allergies or intestinal issues that some users have with these proteins. Moreover, the light, fluffy texture of pea protein tends to smooth out the strong, chalky flavor of rice protein. References Category:Rice "
