[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Seoul Metropolitan G-Valley Industrial Museum is unveiling an exhibition hall called 'G-Valley Chronicle,' where visitors can experience representative industrial heritage from different eras and sectors through virtual reality.


From the 9th to the 12th during the Chuseok holiday, visitors to the Seoul Metropolitan G-Valley Industrial Museum will receive unique gifts such as a floppy disk admission ticket and a completed experience sticker book.


The experiential exhibition hall, G-Valley Chronicle, was created to allow children and younger generations unfamiliar with analog and hands-on experiences to virtually explore how artifacts displayed in glass cases were made and used. Visitors can experience in VR the process of attaching and combing individual hairs to complete a wig, a representative labor-intensive product of the old Guro Industrial Complex.


G-Valley Chronicle captures the flow of industrial development in G-Valley from the labor-intensive manufacturing industry of the 1960s to the ICT-based content industry of the 2020s. It is composed of various stories of the people of G-Valley who have shaped the history of industrial growth.


The G-Valley Industrial Museum collects and exhibits the diverse aspects of 'industrial heritage,' which serves as evidence of industrial development. Alongside industrial products from different eras, through the animated character Potendog, it highlights that the services and content currently produced and actively worked on in the G-Valley cluster symbolize the industrial heritage of our era.



G-Valley Chronicle is free to visit, and visitors can experience the exhibition through on-site registration. Hwang Bo-yeon, Director of Seoul's Economic Policy Office, said, “We hope that the opening of the virtual reality exhibition at the G-Valley Industrial Museum will provide visitors with an opportunity to become familiar with the history of G-Valley's industrial development and its industrial heritage.”
