Distinguishing exterior architecture from indoor events

DDP is a multidisciplinary cultural space themed around design, hosting exhibitions, fashion shows, presentations, and forums. Plan separately for walks around the exterior architecture and for indoor exhibitions and events, as their operating hours and admission conditions differ.

Admission conditions by exhibition and event

A particular exhibition or event may have ticket or reservation conditions separate from a general visit to DDP. Choose the event first, then check the organizer's admission conditions.

Location

Use the original Korean address in the visitor-information card for taxi or map searches; it is kept in Korean to avoid an unverified translation.

Planning notes

Check the actual entrance on the map and confirm operation and access with the official guide before leaving.
