The
 exhibition "Lee Kang So: When the Wind Blows the Water" re-examines a 
unique series of works created over six decades by Lee Kang So (b. 
1943), a seminal figure in the development of Korean contemporary art. As
 a leading artist in the Korean art scene, Lee Kang So has been 
conducting conceptual experiments on image perception and recognition. The
 exhibition title "When the Wind Blows the Water" is inspired by the 
work "Qing Ye Yin" by the Song Dynasty Neo-Confucianist Shao Yong (Shao 
Yong, 1011-1077). In his work, Shao Yong metaphorically describes a state of epiphany when encountering a new world. Shao
 Yong's title summarizes the oeuvre of Lee Kang So, who has long 
questioned the many different ways we see the world around us and 
continues to conduct conceptual experiments on perception in a variety 
of media such as painting, sculpture, installation, printmaking, video 
and photography. Lee Kang So's artistic philosophy, as he himself described his work for the 1975 Paris Biennale, is described in this way. At
 the time he said: “I do not intend to depict images in a traditional 
way, away from the subject-object relationship, but rather to present an
 open structure that reveals the order and relationships in the universe
 that are usually invisible, making these invisible states naturally 
visible.” (“Participating in the 9th Paris Biennale”, Space, January 
1976)

I was a bit skeptical if it was worth it going up the tower, but it was overall a great experience. I enjoyed waiting for the sunset and having a glimpse of Seoul&#39;s skyline both during the day and night. I went during the week and I did non have to queue up the elevator and in the tower it was not too crowded. I recommend you have a stop at the bathroom on the lower floor, the view from it is amazing.

It&#39;s worth going~ You need to buy a full-day pass. There is a parade of floats in the evening~ It&#39;s beautiful~ Pay attention to sun protection in summer~ Carnivores and herbivores are worth seeing~ You can save time queuing by downloading the app in advance. It&#39;s very convenient~ You can get a paper version of the English map at the information center at the entrance~ It doesn&#39;t matter if you can speak English, as long as you can see the pictures~

you can climb up on foot in about 1.5 - 2 hours, from the side of Myeongdong there is a nice village, which is worth a walk. If you have a hard time climbing, it is better to use the funicular. Also, there are almost no kiosks selling water along the way

白纸条

The following is a review of Myeongdong: Advantages - Good shopping experience: This is a paradise for shoppers, bringing together many international brands, Korean local brands and various trendy brands, with a wide variety of goods, including clothing, shoes, cosmetics, accessories and other goods. There are large high-end shopping malls such as New World Department Store and Lotte Department Store, as well as comprehensive shopping centers such as Migliore, and many duty-free shops, with a wide variety of shopping options. - Rich food: you can taste a variety of delicacies, there are authentic Korean traditional dishes such as crab sauce, barbecue, stone pot bibimbap, etc., there are also special snacks such as fried chicken, fried rice cakes, fish cakes, etc., in addition to Western restaurants, fast food restaurants, coffee shops, etc., to meet the taste needs of different people. - Strong cultural atmosphere: Myeongdong Holy Church is the earliest Catholic Church in Korea, with a unique Gothic architectural style, with high historical and cultural value and artistic appreciation. There are also retro neighborhoods such as Tea Cave and Wuqiao Cave Food Culture Street in the surrounding area, full of cultural and artistic atmosphere. Convenient transportation: Located in the center of Seoul, Metro Line 4 Myeongdong Station is directly accessible, and you can directly enter the core area of Myeongdong from multiple exits. There are also many bus lines passing by, which makes it easy for tourists to go to other attractions in Seoul. - Perfect service facilities: most merchants employ Chinese-speaking waiters, and Chinese volunteers on the street, which is convenient for Chinese tourists to ask. There is a police station on Myeongdong Street. If you have any emergency situations such as loss of documents, you can directly ask the police. Banks and currency exchange shops are numerous, which is convenient for tourists to exchange money and handle financial business. Disadvantages - Crowded tourists: As one of Seoul&#39;s hottest tourist attractions, Myeongdong attracts a large number of tourists every day, especially during holidays and tourist seasons, the streets are crowded, and often need to queue up when shopping in shopping malls and restaurants, which will affect the experience of playing. - The quality of goods is uneven: some Myeongdong merchants have the phenomenon of selling fake goods, especially some low-priced goods and souvenirs, tourists need to have a certain ability to distinguish to avoid buying fake goods. - Higher prices: Since Myeongdong is a bustling commercial center and the higher rental costs have led to higher prices for some goods and catering relative to other regions, it may be necessary to spend cautiously for tourists with limited budgets.
