There seems to be no stopping HYBE (formally Big Hit Entertainment) from hyping up its brand as they are officially opening their company museum next month, May 14. HYBE INSIGHT is located on the B1 and B2 floor of the company building, located in Seoul's Yongsan district.
According to reports, the said museum is a way to continue and operate HYBE's mission statement, "We Believe in Music." The museum aims to be a cultural space for all things related to HYBE, as well as a place to promote and commemorate the groups under their label and their respective fandoms.
One of the main highlights for the museum will be the BTS visual art exhibition which is based on the group's "Seven Phases" series created by U.S.-based visual artist James Jean.
For those who are interested in getting tickets for the museum, you may purchase them on HYBE Insight's official website. For those who are considering visiting the venue at a later time, tickets may also be available for purchase in the official mobile app launches on May 3.
