Dongdaemun Shopping Complex
The Secret Stage of Dongdaemun Revived after 96 years, Onggi Concert
The moment the elevator doors open on the 9th floor of the new building of Dongdaemun Shopping Complex, the hidden and mysterious Gwangmudae stage, concealed for nearly a century, reveals itself.
The spirit of 'Gwangmudae', once the center of Korea's modern performing arts scene before it was lost in a fire in 1930, has been revived in the same Dongdaemun area after 96 years.
Onggi Concert is a unique two-hour cultural curation journey that flows from the White Room to Black Room, and back again to the White Room.
