One Escape at a Time Opening Ceremony

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, an in-person opening ceremony was not possible; instead, an online opening event was held. Only essential personnel—such as museum and Biennale staff—were present at the broadcast site, while international participants joined via Zoom. Officials from the Seoul Metropolitan Government, including the Mayor of Seoul and members of the Seoul Metropolitan Council, pre-recorded congratulatory messages, which were broadcast live with English subtitles.
