SUPER MOON 2016, a Super-sized Public Art Project

SUPER MOON 2016, a Super-sized Public Art Project

“Make a wish on the moon over the Seokchon Lake.”

In September 2016, a super-sized artificial moon will

hang in the sky over the Seokchon Lake as part of the

SUPER MOON 2016 public art project, which will no

doubt become the talk of the town, much as the famous

Rubber Duck did in 2014.

The American artist group ‘Friendswithyou’ will

display a 20m-diameter moon and stars over the

Seokchon Lake, Jamsil, a celebration of the moon as

the best friend of the Earth. This project is a

continuation of the ongoing public art project in

collaboration with the Lotte Group begun in 2014, and

it is expected to give citizens amazement, fortune, and

happiness.

The Super Moon 2016 Project, which will be the first

of its kind, will move to other places all over the world

after its display in Jamsil, Seoul. Locals and visitors

come see the moon, helping to make Songpa-gu a

place long remembered by visitors.

All activities carried out in connection with the Super

Moon 2016 Project are free. On weekends, mascots

dressed up as eye-catching characters will greet visitors

to the Seokchon Lake. It is customary for Asians to

make wishes on the full moon. Why don’t you spend

some time at the Seokchon Lake with your lover or

family members in the lovely atmosphere created by

the full moon?
