Hongdae B-612
Once when I was twenty-one years old I saw a magnificent art exhibition in Hongdae, called Little Prince in Seoul.
—copied from the first sentence of The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupéry
Go past the busy streets of Hongdae, up a little hill and you'll find a small Le Petit Prince art exhibit on your right. It's not a big venue but definitely a beautiful exhibit nonetheless.
I was surprised to find so much vibrancy and visual detail in each showroom. The rooms don't really have anything to do with the actual story of The Little Prince, but it expands on certain thematic aspects and tries to make them visually stunning with lights and props. It was pretty cool, and I also got to add some aesthetic photos to my 'Korea' album.
A short but beautiful experience.
