About
The Seoul branch of the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA), Korea. A state-run contemporary art museum adjoining Gyeongbokgung Palace and the former Defense Security Command site, with indoor galleries, outdoor courtyards, and a walkable garden. During BTS THE CITY ARIRANG SEOUL (March 20 to April 19, 2026), MMCA hosted the LOVE QUARTER installation: a cube-shaped structure draped in cascading blue and white ribbons with a listening zone playing ARIRANG tracks. Free to view from the garden area, no reservation required for the outdoor installation.
