About the festival

As part of the traditional culture promotion project, the Seoul International Buddhist Expo and Buddha Art Fair, hosted by the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism, have been operating since 2013 to widely promote Buddhism and its unique traditional culture, playing a key role in the development of related industries as a continuous MICE project for over 10 years. This year, the Seoul International Buddhist Expo and Buddha Art Fair will feature diverse Buddhist cultural content under the theme 'Playing with the Void You Like (Form is Emptiness, Emptiness is Form)', which allows for an enjoyable experience of Buddhist emptiness philosophy.
