Mangmidan-gil creates an atmosphere that seems familiar and unfamiliar at the same time with many unique shops converted from renovated old houses. Just as all the other places with the suffix “-ridan-gil,” Mangmidan-gil is full of exotic cafes, pubs and restaurants. However, Mangmidan-gil is quite different from any other “-ridan-gil.” One by one as small galleries have nestled together, Mangmidan-gil has become a new culture and arts district! Let’s enjoy an elegant cultural life in the exotic galleries of Mangmidan-gil.

Walking House New York

Walking House New York boasts exotic red bricks that make you feel as if you are on Soho Street in New York. Walking House New York is a culture and arts agency composed of culturally knowledgeable artists who pursue liberated lives, which may explain how, here, you can not only encounter various cultures across borders but also check out spatial production that stimulates your curiosity.

Decorated with “Olive Green,” this space is the signature cultural space of “Walking House New York,” known as “Dream Traveler’s Wanderer Fantasy”! Unique posters on the walls, books filling the bookshelves and densely attached magnets are all personal collections of CEO Lee Sang-hoon who runs the travel agency, “Dream Expedition," specializing in art travel. It would be nice to dream of a new journey here where someone’s experiences and traces are on clear, honest display.
*Exhibition period: November 9, 2021 - January 28, 2022

OBJECTHOOD Gallery

After leaving Walking House New York and walking a bit alongside the Suyeonggang River, you will find a tranquil garden that makes you feel as if you are in a luxury mansion in Europe. This is the art gallery, “OBJECTHOOD.” On a late afternoon, the objects harmonize with the sunlight that warmly penetrates through all the glass windows to create heartwarming senses. At OBJECTHOOD, you can enjoy the works of rising artists both from Korea and overseas, and you can also purchase artworks at the select shop set up inside the gallery.

Currently, a special exhibition titled “BREATHE IN” is being held at OBJECTHOOD. It tells the stories of objects built by the warmth of more than 20 craftsmen, writers and designers including “White Porcelain Polygonal Moon Jar,” which has reinterpreted the lines of moon jars in a modern way. If you wish to receive warm comfort and consolation from beautiful objects, make sure to visit OBJECTHOOD.
*Exhibition period: November 11 - December 30, 2021

Kukje Gallery

Not far from OBJECTHOOD lies “Kukje Gallery” where you can enjoy the works of world-famous contemporary artists. Kukje Gallery is located inside “F1963,” a cultural complex remodeled from the former Kiswire Suyeong factory. “F1963” is regarded as one of the greatest architectural attractions in Busan! Thanks to the renovation of a huge factory once equipped with equipment lines, you can enjoy artworks with an open view without any obstacles.

“Your Faces,” the first photography exhibition by film master and director Park Chan-wook, is currently being held at F1963 Kukje Gallery. The photos taken with Director Park Chan-wook’s unique perspective create a strange and bizarre vibe and makes you look back on the daily scenery that you have been nonchalantly passing by.
*Exhibition period: October 1 - December 19, 2021

Many people believe that it is difficult to appreciate artworks but we recommend the Mangmidan-gil Gallery Tour where they can encounter art up close. This winter, it would be nice to revitalize your daily life and circulate your mind while enjoying various works of art.
