KOREA METAL WEEK 2026 takes place October 28–30 in Hall 3 of KINTEX Exhibition Center 1 in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province. The organizer's detailed visitor guide lists 10 a.m.–5 p.m. on October 28–29 and 10 a.m.–4 p.m. on the final day, October 30. Online pre-registration is free, whereas on-site registration costs KRW 10,000. Pre-registered visitors present their registration confirmation text at the desk to collect a badge. Invitation holders are asked to follow the separate invitation procedure. Importantly, the homepage headline says the show continues until 5 p.m. on October 30, contradicting the 4 p.m. final-day closing in the visitor guide. Verify last entry and closing times with the organizer before planning a late Friday visit. Exhibitor and seminar details have separate links on the event website.

What we're seeing
Free pre-registration versus KRW 10,000 on-site admission makes an immediate difference. Conflicting final-day hours matter even more for journey planning.
