Venue for various live events such as concerts, showcases, and fan meetings
A 1,500-seat live venue located in Yeouido. Situated in the heart of Seoul, it's a highly accessible performance hall easily reachable by subway and bus.

The floor section has no elevation, so your view may be blocked if you're in the back of the standing area. The second floor has a better view from the front row than the back of the main floor.
