On May 12, Siheung City announced that it has completed and officially launched the media art installation project at the No. 88 Cultural Park in Geobukseom-dong (2721 Jeongwang-dong). This initiative aims to offer unique nighttime cultural content to residents and visitors, while also expanding the foundation for stay-type tourism on Turtle Island.

The media art installation utilizes four pillars within the cultural park to create a media facade that projects videos onto the ground. The site is equipped with four 12-meter-high media poles, four projectors, four main speakers, and two woofers, among other audio facilities. Additional lighting and control systems have also been installed, enabling a highly immersive nighttime landscape.

The main theme of the media content is "The Four Seasons of The Little Prince." The work sensuously captures the changing seasons with segments such as "Waltz of Spring," "Waves of Summer," "Autumnal Sunset," and "Winter's Excitement." Through this immersive blend of light, video, and music, the city expects to offer citizens a new space for relaxation and cultural enjoyment, further enhancing the unique nighttime ambiance of Turtle Island.

The video is approximately 12 minutes long and will be screened on a loop every day in May from 7:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., for a total of three hours. Starting in June, it will operate every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 8:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., with screenings every 30 minutes. However, the schedule may be adjusted flexibly depending on seasonal sunset times and on-site conditions.
