The 'Protective Clothing Exhibition,' expressing gratitude to all medical staff working hard on COVID-19 prevention, is an exhibition of works made from protective clothing by 20 representative Korean artists including Hwang Iseul, who made hanbok for the idol group BTS, and calligrapher Kang Byung-in. Reflecting visitors' wishes that the works be directly delivered to medical staff, the protective clothing was delivered to the hospital.

On the 13th, Gangnam-gu's 'live commerce' broadcast jointly conducted with the portal site 'Naver' as a side event of 'Art Prize Gangnam' received great response, raising expectations for new sales channels for small business owners facing management difficulties.
