Individuals yearn for a daily setting where cultural, residential, and lodging facilities intertwine, mirroring the spirit of the new era. A demand arises for a versatile cultural venue unbound by temporal and spatial constraints, harmoniously integrated with the natural surroundings and conveniently accessible in everyday life.

Our objective is to establish an identity that resonates with both the citizens of Busan and travelers, transcending the confines of the complex and catering to a wider audience.
