hello everyone!
A few days ago, I went on a short trip to the outskirts of Seoul. The place I arrived was Paju, Gyeonggi-do! It’s about an hour away from Seoul by car, so it’s a perfect city for a quick getaway. I originally planned on going outdoors, but it suddenly started raining so much that I had no choice but to look for indoor activities. That’s when I stumbled upon Museum He.R!
The address of Museum Hair is 885-43 Pyeonghwa-ro, Tanhyeon-myeon, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do. The admission fee is 25,000 won. Museum Hair is not just an exhibition space, but an immersive art museum that combines media art and sensory installations. It consists of three themes, and the atmosphere and presentation in each space are completely different, so it feels like watching three movies in a row rather than one exhibition~
The exhibit that impressed me the most was the space exhibit. The 360-degree projection that covered the entire floor and walls with stars pouring down in the dark space and an astronaut floating was overwhelming. The entire space was made of mirrors, so it gave the illusion that I was floating in the middle of space. The photos came out really pretty, too!
And in the third section, there was a cute space that children would also like. Large-scale images were displayed in three dimensions on the entire wall and floor, creating the illusion that various animals such as penguins, fish, and polar bears were actually in front of me. In particular, the scene where a penguin ran toward me or a whale swam in front of me in the sea was a moment when digital technology connected with emotions.
If you are wondering where to go near Seoul, and especially on a rainy day when you want to stay in a quiet and emotional space, Museum Hair seems like a good choice~
have a good day!
