Blue Square

About This Location

[Description] Blue Square, located in the stylish Hannam-dong neighborhood of Seoul, is South Korea’s largest performing arts complex dedicated exclusively to musicals and live concerts. Opened in 2011, it features two world-class venues: the Shinhan Card Hall, designed for grand-scale Broadway-style musicals, and the Mastercard Hall, a multi-purpose space optimized for pop concerts and fan meetings. The complex is also famous for "Book Park," a massive cultural space filled with thousands of books and towering floor-to-ceiling bookshelves that have become a popular backdrop for photos. With its modern glass architecture and artistic atmosphere, Blue Square serves as a premier cultural landmark. It offers a seamless blend of high-end stage productions, literary exploration, and trendy dining, making it a favorite destination for both local art enthusiasts and international visitors looking to experience Seoul’s dynamic performing arts scene. [How to Get There] Blue Square is exceptionally accessible via the Seoul Metro. The most convenient way is to take Line 6 to Hangangjin Station, which is directly connected to the venue through an underground passage near Exits 2 and 3. If you are coming from the Myeong-dong or Namsan area, numerous city buses (such as Blue Bus No. 110, 142, 144, or 402) stop at the "Hangangjin Station, Blue Square" station right in front of the building. Because it is located at the entrance of the trendy Hannam-dong cafe street, walking from the station is highly recommended.
