The five teams participating this year are: Department of Design at Seoul National University of Science and Technology (Jamkkan, Seom), Department of Architecture at Seoul National University (Dotdanseom, Barameul Dameun Nodeul), Department of Design at Seoul National University (Nodeul-eseo Maengseobang Chatgi), Department of Industrial Design at University of Seoul (Teum), and Department of Fine Arts at Sungkyunkwan University (Sasa-o).
Detailed information about the works and exhibition can be found on the Seoul Museum of Art website and SNS. After the on-site exhibition ends, the exhibition will also be available online through the website starting in October.
