Time Mirror: Travel Back to the Beginning of Clothing

A free interactive pop-up in the National Science Museum Natural History Hall 2F Human Gallery, running September 22–November 29, 2026. Visitors stand before a digital mirror and move through clothing changes across Korea, France, the UK and Japan back toward prehistoric leather clothing, then can save a personal time-travel video by QR code. The official exhibition notice says walk-in participation is allowed. Rechecked October 5: the museum currently lists general visitor hours as 09:30–17:30 with ticketing closing at 17:00 and normally closes Mondays, Lunar New Year and Chuseok day; these are museum-wide access rules, not a separate timed session for this pop-up.

Why it matters now

It is a hands-on exhibition running through November 29 and adds an easy, no-reservation interactive stop to a science-museum visit. The National Science Museum is also one of the strongest Daejeon Place pages in current reader activity, so keeping this practical access information fresh has immediate value.

Daejeon’s national science museum combines natural history, science and technology, children’s galleries, astronomy facilities, a botanical garden and large outdoor exhibits.
