What's the fountain pen scene like in Korea? Are there clubs, internet groups, nib techs and pen restorers?

[adamsw216]

The fountain pen scene in Korea is small. There are plenty of shops, but there is only one community that I know of and it is the one that is hosting this pen show (Penhood). There may be some smaller interest groups, but it's a pretty focused community since fountain pens are even more niche in Korea than they are in the US.

The pen show went well! I made a post about it here on my blog, take a look!
