On April 16, 2014, the Sewol Ferry, sailing to Jeju, sank. The news shocked the nation. It was disastrous for Koreans as they careened through complex emotions: astonishment, relief, shock, and sadness. However, people have gradually forgotten the tragedy as time passes. Therefore, we suggest several experiences that you should never forget. Under the reflected daylight through the water surface textured installation, visitors stare and take time to think deeply without any sounds. This impressive space allows us to reflect on the meaning of light that symbolizes life and salvation to the victims and all the people.
