Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) @ Night (part 2)

We've been wanting to visit Dongdaemun Design Plaza at night (NOT at day, especially during a terribly hot summer like this:). So, since it's holiday and the kids are out of school, we've been 'pondering' over where to go..what to do...everyday. So, after going back from DMZ tour, today we visited Dongdaemun.

It turned out that DDP is having lots of exhibitions. This is WOW...I mean...it's WETA workshop exhibition. With 15,000 Won ticket, we can get access to the works of WETA, especially those related with the Lord of the Ring trilogy.

Hmm..too bad..it's closed when I got there. Of course it's almost 9 pm, Suray.

yes...I should've come sooner. 

Another exhibition being offered to the visitors. 

These are what DDP offers until the end of August/Sept.: exhibitions on

Transformers, SBS Drama, and WETA Fntasy world.

There is a discounted rate if we see all of those 3 exhibitions in one day. 

Okay..for the meantime..let's just go around circling this mother spaceship.

Hmm...I love the changing color of the walls across the whole spacecraft.^^

The ambiance of the whole area was so soothing in the midst of the summer night. 

Right. On this trip, we went along with our friends: Om Kiki and his wife, tante Nia. Om Kiki has been so close..too close with our daughters. So, upon finding out that we'd take this trip with them...Eyra and Freya were ecstatic. 

Green lawn under the parked spaceship.^^ overlooking the brightly illuminated high-rise of Dongdaemun fashion complex. 

This futuristic construction is connected with subway line 2, 4, and 5--> which gives it another advantage of being easily accessible from all parts of the city.

This is the entrance that bisects the underground level with the subways.

pretty neat, uh? 

And what would a trip be without a group picture. 

Hmm, looking at Tanta Nia's spot of standing, I was considering of re-taking another picture with each of us standing right on TOP of each light on the floor so as to give us a beamed effect. So...another visit to DDP at night, then?

Sure..WHY NOT.:-)
