Korea Pavilion: With Hearts

K-Pop Live Performance Videos a Must-See

The Korea Pavilion’s theme is “With Hearts” and it seeks to offer an experience of society as it may look in 2040. The wall facing the main venue ring is equipped with a massive display screen, which highlights the nation’s cultural appeal through K-Pop live videos and video tours of tourist spots.

Inside, the hall uses AI analysis to transform visitors’ voices into orchestral music in a demonstration of cutting-edge technology.

The Korea pavilion is located in the Connecting Lives zone. (See the official map for details.) Korea marks its national day on Tuesday, May 13, at the Expo National Day Hall.
