Find the five cats from the cat kingdom Joseon Nyang-guk: the Meow King Jeong, Dohwa, the first-rank cat painter of the Dohwaseo; the easygoing romantic Hanryang; the unstoppable phantom-thief fanatic Gwedonyang; and Bokman, who brings good fortune when you meet. Find all five cats hidden across the eight panels of Hwaseong Neunghaengmyodo, along with their five treasured items, and enjoy the bonus searches too!

I gave it to my nieces and nephews who love cats! I hope there will be more versions. Everyone has a cat but me.

It's like an adventure through the Joseon era with cats! Have I ever looked so closely at Joseon-era art before? I was solving puzzles and searching the artwork for cats, and I got to explore the stories and details in each piece. Thanks to that, I learned about Hwaseong Neunghaengdo properly! It's a fun book for the whole family to enjoy together. I'm truly looking forward to the next one—please make it a series!

There's a lot to enjoy beyond the cat-search game, including fun ways to learn about Joseon culture and history. The illustrations are adorable and full of detail. Every expression and action of the cats is so lovable that I found myself smiling as I turned each page.

I first encountered artist Ireida's Cats on the Rampage at the last K-Illustration Fair, so it's amazing to get to read the book as part of a review group! I love history, and Hwaseong Neunghaengmyodo is made up of paintings that recreate the eight-panel screen Hwaseong Neunghaengdo, which depicts King Jeongjo's procession to Hwaseong, in the style of Cats on the Rampage. As someone who loves history, I was really curious about this book. Each of the eight panels has a story told by the cat

I've always been very interested in the Joseon era and enjoy historical dramas, so this book feels especially precious to me. The illustrations and explanations show Korean architecture, civil service exams, archery, military training, and other aspects of life at the time, and the seek-and-find activities made it fun to read. The cute cats transformed into animals and people are adorable, too! I thought it would be a great way to teach children about history while searching for hidden pictures

An illustrated book showing cats in all sorts of Korean settings. I love cats, so I bought it to keep. If I'd had it as a child, I would have used a red pen to mark the hidden cats, then different colors for the treasured objects and other things to find. I hear there are invisible pens that show up under a light now; I could use one to mark the cats. Writing this review helped me realize something: I thought it was only about cats, but the back has a section for finding the main cats' friends,

It's fascinating to see a cat book illustrated against the backdrop of the Joseon era. It feels cheerful, fun, and approachable instead of stiff like historical records in a museum or art gallery. I can't have a cat, so as an online cat owner, a book with so many cats helps me build my virtual cat-parent skills. I love books like this!

This is the artist's distinctive reinterpretation of Hwaseong Neunghaengdo, a famous Joseon-era folding-screen painting. I had seen the artist's work at illustration fairs before, and the merchandise sold there felt fresh, with cute cats blended naturally into traditional East Asian painting. I bought this book when I heard it would be published as a seek-and-find book. It includes only selected parts of the full Hwaseong Neunghaengdo, where the artist's characters act like people: cats who

The combination of cultural heritage and cute characters feels fresh, and searching for the hidden cats is so much fun. I bought it for my child, who loves cats, but I'm having even more fun finding them....

At first I wondered, “Isn't this Hwaseong Neunghaengdo?” Was it the Suwon procession I knew? It was, but this was Hwaseong Neunghaengmyodo, depicting the cats' procession to Suwon. The cover is striking and the content is fun. Finding the five main cats is harder than I expected. They don't all look alike, and each cat is doing something different on every page, so you have to look carefully. Of the five, Dohwa, with yellow fur and blue arm warmers, was easiest to find. The cats are always
