Special Exhibition on South Korea in Lübeck
The Industrial Museum Geschichtswerkstatt Herrenwyk dedicates a special exhibition to South Korea. Under the title "Land of Dawn or Asian Tiger?", the exhibition focuses on a country that is shaped by strong contrasts and different historical experiences.
The central themes are tradition, historical division, technology, and popular culture. The exhibition invites visitors to view South Korea from multiple perspectives: as a country with deep-rooted traditions, as a divided nation with a tumultuous history, and as a technology-driven society. Additionally, Korean popular culture is brought into focus.
The exhibition title refers to different images and attributions associated with South Korea. On the one hand, "Land of Dawn" represents the historical and cultural dimension of the country. On the other hand, the term "Asian Tiger" refers to the modern, technology-oriented side of South Korea. The exhibition connects these perspectives and places them in a common context.
Exhibition Period
The special exhibition will be on view from November 14, 2026 to March 14, 2027 at the Industrial Museum Geschichtswerkstatt Herrenwyk in Lübeck. This provides several months' opportunity to engage with South Korea between tradition, division, technological change, and internationally influential popular culture.
