We attended an evening performance of traditional Korean music, dance and song here and were captivated both by the building and the performance. The building itself is adjacent to the Art Museum and the Hanbat Arboretum, within easy walking distance of the Government Complex Metro Station, although the venue has ample parking. Approached via a series of wide steps, the glass front is topped with an interpretation of a traditional Korean roof (reminiscent of those we have seen at the Imperial Palace in Seoul). Inside it is all pale, pale grey concrete, glass and light wood, with a high, high reception hall with long narrow windows cut into the concrete walls. Very modern and yet also very classical and quite stunning. Inside the auditorium there are three tiers, all with a good view of the vast stage. Seats are high backed and comfortable. The stage is huge, clearly designed with big performances in mind. We watched an orchestra of traditional Korean instruments playing while a large group of dancers in Hanbok performed a flowing dance and they had plenty of room to spare. If you get the chance to see a performance here, do take up the opportunity.
