ACC Foundation presents Sikgaek: Behind the Taste, an exhibition inspired by Huh Young-man's comic series Sikgaek, at the Asia Culture Center Children's Cultural Center multi-purpose hall from September 17 through December 13, 2026. Instead of focusing only on flavor, it looks at the memories, work and relationships behind everyday food.
Readers of the comic may enjoy seeing familiar episodes turned into physical exhibition spaces. The organizer describes an introduction that transforms monochrome comic scenes into an immersive setting, followed by sections including Sikgaek: Life in Food. Stories about rice, kimchi-making and salt invite visitors to think about the people and labor behind meals.
The exhibition runs September 17–December 13, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., except Mondays. Last admission is at 5:30 p.m. All ages are welcome. Standard admission costs KRW 10,000, with free entry for children aged six and under. Tickets are available through Ticketlink and Naver, and on-site ticket sales are also listed. For group inquiries call 062-601-4791; general inquiries 1899-5566.
Exhibits about food are not necessarily tasting events. The official listing does not establish that every visitor receives food samples, so verify any separate experiences before arriving.
