[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] The local culture platform AREA 6 (Area Six) plans to hold an exhibition titled ‘Jakdangmoi Exhibition’ in collaboration with local artists until October 30.

The ‘Jakdangmoi Exhibition,’ held in the lounge on the second floor of Area Six, is an exhibition directly planned by four artists active in Busan, and admission is free.

The first exhibition featured a painting exhibition by artist Kim Ja-ok. Kim Ja-ok expressed in her work the world of Bakkotopia, where ‘Bbakgo,’ a being completely opposite to ‘me’ who lives freely without caring about others’ gazes, resides.

The second exhibition was a photo exhibition by photographer Yoon Jae-woon. He documented 100 days spent with Yeongdo through photographs, capturing the inspiration he felt about Yeongdo each day in his works.

The exhibition by artist Kim Yoo-jin, titled ‘Record of a Certain City,’ held from the 1st to the 14th, does not simply ‘record’ while maintaining the original form of the city, but intentionally distorts shapes and compositions to present the process of the essence fading away through the artwork.

The last artist of the ‘Jakdangmoi Exhibition,’ Lee Hye-young, expressed the emotions felt when leaving the apartment where she had lived for about six years under the theme ‘The Apartment Where I Lived.’ This exhibition will be held from October 15 to 30.

Area Six is not only hosting exhibitions but also conducting various attempts with large and small brands in a small space that retains traces of a 100-year-old alley connected to Yeongdo Bongnae Market.

The brands housed in Area Six include ▲‘Rolo and Yeongdo,’ an overseas food community ▲‘Naemi,’ creating local scents ▲local tea room ‘Tea Sounds’ ▲plant shop ‘Ann’s Garden’ ▲creator shop ‘STIC’ ▲‘Songwol Towel,’ embodying 73 years of craftsmanship ▲traditional liquor bottle shop ‘Busan Judang’ ▲and ‘In-eo Ajimae,’ offering trendy dried seafood.

Located right next to the Samjin Fish Cake Yeongdo main store, AREA 6 (Area Six) is a local culture platform based on regional coexistence operated by Samjin Foods.

The platform offers various attractions and food, including wrapping art and poster exhibitions.
