Light, Resonance, Power — Metal Awakening the Senses
빛·울림·힘-금속, 감각을 깨우다
This special exhibition, running from April 28 to August 30, 2025, explores the richness of metal culture in East Asia. Centered on the brilliance, resonance, and strength of metal—qualities that reflect human wisdom and technical innovation—the exhibition invites visitors to engage all their senses. Rather than focusing solely on the historical value of artifacts, the display emphasizes direct sensory experience: the light striking the eye, the sounds touching the ear, the textures felt at the fingertips. These sensations blend with personal memories and experiences, creating new interpretations and deeper reflective engagement with history and culture.
