Artists will reinterpret the group’s universe
The exhibition will feature work from five contemporary artists based in South Korea and Japan. The artists are Kotori Kawashima, Masanao Hirayama, I Mimi, Parc Saehan, and Azikazin Magic World. Each artist will rethink and reinterpret NCT Wish’s image and fictional universe using their own artistic views. The works taking inspiration from the boy group will include photography, illustration, painting, and interactive gaming, giving fans a wider look at the ideas behind the group’s creative world.
A successful era on display
The venue will also include a fabric book edition of the four-panel comic strip “Grant my wish! Green star and space dust bird!” That comic is inspired by the group’s universe, accompanied by curated music and book selection, with the music chosen by actress Shim Eun-kyung. Admission will be free, and visitors will not need to register in advance. This exhibition comes after the successful release of “Ode to Love,” which sold over one million copies in one day, becoming the boy group’s third million-selling project.
