A factory, which was deserted for a long time,
was renovated to the multi-functional art and culture space, where everyone can experience exhibitions and art.
The Sorex factory, which once produced cassette tapes was renovated and renamed Palbok Art Factory 25 years after its closing. While it may seem dreary, the factory was thoroughly changed into a trendy space with colorful art work.
The chimney of the factory emitting black smoke became the standing sign the ‘Palbok Art Factory’. The old and outdated building became a multi-functional cultural space, including an art playground and an exhibition hall for all kinds of experiences and game activities. Red and black containers were added. Under the container bridge connecting Building A and B, there is the ‘Palbok Dream! Wriggle Comic Bookstore’ filled with about 900 comic books in 49 kinds and the ‘Palbok Dream! Wriggle Drawing Studio’ where you can draw on any surface. The Exhibition Hall hosts exhibition of tenant artists. During weekend, the factory becomes an exciting art classroom for children.
No matter what you imagine, you can get more pleasure in the Palbok Art Factory. You can also use the Hydrogen City Bus, the first hydrogen city bus for mass manufacturing in Korea.
