Goobne Chicken’s 2025 Intercollegiate Ceramics Exhibition, “Da Da Dak,” is a must-see guide to Korea.
Introduction | Goobne Chicken’s “baking” philosophy meets young ceramic artists
Known for oven-roasted chicken, Goobne Chicken has built a brand identity around the act of “baking.” That philosophy expands into art with the Goobne Chicken 2025 Intercollegiate Ceramics Exhibition “Da Da Dak”. Echoing the slogan “The care to roast a chicken, the time to fire clay,” the show reminds us that both flavor and art are made slowly, with patience. Hosted at the 4F Goobne Gallery inside Goobne Playtown, the exhibition reframes the familiar subject of “chicken” through witty, experimental student works, delivering a culture-plus-brand experience that’s easy to enjoy on a Hongdae stroll or date.
