Le processus artistique de Choong-Sup Lim examine le lien entre culture et nature. Ses œuvres sont composées de différents matériaux souvent avec des objets trouvés par terre dans les rues de New York. Cette approche lui permet d’explorer les bruits de notre culture à laquelle il répond avec une tranquillité naturelle et simple.
Pendant sa carrière Monsieur Lim a participé au sein des expositions prestigieuses au Samsung Museum of Modern Art (Seoul), le Smithsonian Institution-Hirshorn Museum (Washington DC) ainsi d’avoir ses œuvres dans la collection permanant du National Museum of Contemporary Art (Seoul) et le Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York). En 2010 il a été le récipiendaire du prix de sculpture Se-Joong Kim.
