Free screening of <Moana 2> at Hyochang Park in Yongsan
The romance of lying on the grass with your loved ones—whether a partner, friends, or family—and enjoying a movie under the soft moonlight on a cool early summer night. It’s a privilege unique to this season, one you won’t be able to enjoy once the scorching summer heat sets in.
This Saturday evening, Disney’s blockbuster *Moana* will be shown on a giant screen amidst the lush greenery of the park.
A relaxed movie screening experience, free from the stifling atmosphere of a movie theater where you’re afraid to even breathe and feel self-conscious about the light from your smartphone. It’s an open-air theater where you can sip a cold can of beer, chat comfortably with friends, and enjoy a movie in a free and relaxed atmosphere. This weekend, before it’s too late, grab a blanket and head out to this romantic early summer night theater.
