Why it matters now

October 10–11 is the final weekend of the Pokémon GO and civic activities. On-site Pokémon GO hours are Saturday 10:00–19:00 and Sunday 10:00–17:00, different from the gallery's general hours. General admission is free; gifts for poem-activity participants who follow an official city/gallery social account are limited to 200 per day on weekends/holidays, with no stock guarantee. The October 9 performers are not promised for the weekend.

Why go

A free, family-friendly indoor stop to understand Seoul's urban history and future, near City Hall Station Exit 4 (about 2 minutes). Gift shops and special activities can cost extra; verify individual conditions.
