Date Night Guide — Yeongdeungpo Times Square Free Media-Art Exhibition (Living Geometry 2026)

Date Night Guide — Yeongdeungpo Times Square Free Media-Art Exhibition (Living Geometry 2026)

Three minutes on foot from Yeongdeungpo Station, and on the B2 level of Times Square Mall, KAIST XD Lab's media-art special exhibition Living Geometry 2026 runs free at YDP Artsquare. Seven single-channel video, interactive installation, and web works pack into a 60–90 minute visit — easy to fold into a date that already includes shopping, dining, or a film at the same building.


Why it works as a date course

The exhibition is a three-minute walk from Yeongdeungpo Station (Line 1 / KTX), and Times Square is connected to the station underground — you can arrive without stepping outside, even on a rainy day. Admission is free and no reservation is required, so you can drop in around the rest of your plan.

Of the seven works on view, several interactive installations are designed for two people to experience side by side. Intae Hwang's Vessel uses a pulse sensor to bring two heartbeats into resonance with Seoul's mobility data; his Goldilocks lets you adjust seven meteorological parameters and place 'your weather' alongside Seoul's live readings. Minhyeok Seo's City'scape + Tied turns a single physical door into a small private threshold the two of you cross together.

After the show, the rest of Times Square — restaurants, cafés, the multiplex, the 5F rooftop garden — sits one elevator ride away. You can do exhibition → dinner → film → walk without leaving the building.


A suggested course

1) Yeongdeungpo Station Exit 4 → Times Square underground link (3 min, no outdoor exposure).

2) B2 level — YDP Artsquare. Living Geometry 2026, 60–90 min (enter via Gate 14, next to the Dokdo Experience Center).

3) Times Square food court or 1F atrium café for a break.

4) CGV Yeongdeungpo or the 5F rooftop garden to close the day.


Works to experience together

From the seven works in the show, here are the interactive pieces that two visitors tend to enjoy most as a pair. Each links to its full description.

About the exhibition

Living Geometry 2026 is a media-art special exhibition curated and developed by the KAIST Experience Design Lab (XD Lab) within KAIST's Department of Industrial Design. It re-threads Yeongdeungpo's visible urban landscape, its invisible data, and the emotional strata behind them in a geometric language — recasting the city, beyond a stilled aggregate of concrete, as an organism in continual pulse. Seven works span single-channel video, interactive installation, and multi-device web art.
