Trick Eye Museum Seoul

The Trick Eye Museum 트릭아이미술관 is an art gallery with paintings that give each 2D art piece the illusion of being in 3D. Located at the Hongdae area (홍대앞), a region in Seoul, near the Hongik University, this area is known for its urban arts and indie music culture, clubs and entertainments.
