The Shake Shack Gangnam Branch plans to move from its current location near Sinnonhyeon Station in Seocho-gu, Seoul, to a busier area near Gangnam Station and reopen there.


Before the relocation opening of the Gangnam Branch, Shake Shack collaborated with artist Seo In-ji, known for using vivid colors, to present ‘The Landmark in Gangnam,’ a hoarding art (artistic activity using temporary construction site barriers). This hoarding art depicts the Gangnam Branch, a hub and meeting place, as a joyful carousel based on the story of the first Shake Shack store, capturing various people gathering to enjoy Shake Shack’s menu and happily smiling.


The hoarding art is a public art event that Shake Shack showcases each time it opens a store, reflecting the characteristics of the local area. It has become a unique culture of Shake Shack, created with the participation of the local community and consumers.


To commemorate the relocation of the Gangnam Branch, Shake Shack is holding a pre-event. From the 5th to the 4th of next month, customers who scan the QR code on the hoarding wall and apply with a story about why they want to participate in the pre-opening tasting event, ‘Housewarming Party,’ will be entered into a draw to win one of 60 spots to attend the event.



Additionally, from the 17th to the 4th of next month, customers who take a selfie at the selfie zone installed on the hoarding art and post the photo on Instagram with the required hashtags will be entered into a draw to win one of 30 additional spots to participate in the Housewarming Party.
