Bowyer in Japan and Korea

[RT]

Hi,

I maybe planning a trip to Korean or Japan later this year and was wondering if anyone out there have any good contacts to bowyer in the
above two country that build good traditional bows of of bamboo and willing to share and give me some insight on how these bows are made.

Was thinking in line of a bow building session with one of these gurus.

Any contacts or information much appreciated.  ,  Robin
