Artime Joe, also known as Yoo In-Jun, is one of Korea’s most important and influential graffiti artists. Since founding JNJ CREW in 2001, he has been instrumental in chronicling the evolution of Korean street art, from its humble beginnings in the early 2000s when there was no graffiti to commanding stages in hip-hop and B-boy performances. Known for his imaginative reinterpretations of international cultural icons like Michael Jordan, Bugs Bunny, and Dragon Ball characters, he introduced "The Cappers" (Cap Man), a distinctive character that has become his most recognizable creation. Beyond national borders, Artime Joe joined the international graffiti crew Stick Up Kids in 2010 and has since travelled to over 20 countries for exhibitions and mural projects across Europe, Asia, and North America. As one of Korea’s most respected Korean graffiti artists, Artime Joe continues to leave an indelible mark on the global graffiti landscape.
