South Korea

South Korea’s pavilion, themed “With Hearts,” merges traditional aesthetics with high-tech immersion (Korea Pavilion). The exterior’s pixelated façade hints at transformation and digital evolution, while the interior offers cutting-edge interactive experiences that respond to movement and gesture. A striking light installation greets visitors, laser-like beams criss-cross through a darkened space, creating an evolving matrix that reacts to the audience in real time.

Another notable feature is the bubble creation zone, where participants complete the cycle by breathing into specially designed horns, symbolically giving the “breath of life”. These bubbles float freely around the space, visualizing the guests' active participation in building the future. (Exhibit Space Ⅱ) While the pavilion does not feature a named mascot, its dynamic and responsive environment effectively communicates South Korea’s commitment to innovation grounded in culture and collective experience.
