# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Lubok: Tidying the outline and keeping the color inside it removes the misregistration and rough hand that carried the warmth of a popular print.
# - Minhwa: Correcting the broken perspective as though it were unskilled drawing removes the humor multiple viewpoints produce, leaving a stiff piece of realism.
