The Sejong Center for the Performing Arts in Seoul is introducing an evening garden to extend its cultural offerings beyond the theater. The newly landscaped garden, named Curtain Call Garden, will open on Thursday and run through November 8. Visitors can enjoy live jazz performances, food stalls, and nighttime illuminations in the garden, which is open daily from 5 to 11 p.m. The program aims to stimulate the nighttime economy by engaging residents and tourists in downtown Seoul after dark.
Club Janus, a prominent jazz venue in Korea, has curated 15 live performances for the garden, including acts from Korea's leading Prelude. The garden sits behind the venue in the central Gwanghwamun area and is accessible to the public at no cost.
