The second story of architect Yoo Hyun-jun, cartoonist Kim Poong, and broadcaster Daniel Lindemann's architectural trip to Germany will be revealed in MBC's liberal arts program 'The Reasoned Architects-Space Traveler' (hereinafter 'Reason Architects'), which will be broadcast on the 16th. It's not just a tour of Berlin. Through architecture, a special 'Architectural Dark Tourism (a trip to recall the value of peace where a tragic event occurred)' will unfold and resonate with viewers.
At the Berlin Wall, where they went to the first place, the three check with their eyes how Germany remembers the war. The wall representing division was a drawing paper containing art. The most famous work, 「The Kiss of Brothers」, shocks viewers with visuals that stop them from walking. Jeon Hyun-moo and Hong Jin-kyung, who were watching on the VCR, also saw the two men kiss each other, saying, "What? Is it real?"I'm surprised. Daniel Lindemann tells us who the main character is in the work and what kind of hidden meaning it has. It really piques the question of what kind of story this kiss has.
There were memorial spaces all over Berlin, and among them, the monuments hiding in Paris Square are in unexpected positions, surprising everyone. The three people are amazed at the meaning of the memorial where their heads are bowed. Germany's various ways of memorializing the pain of war are surprising even in the passing daily life, drawing attention.
Yoo Hyun-jun, Kim Poong, and Daniel Lindemann then arrive at the German parliament building and face a democratic symbol that gives special meaning to Germans. Jeon exclaims that "the meaning is wonderful" in a fantastic design that shows that "power is under the people"." Kim Poong is a great combination of architectural dark tourism with 'Wu'Yoo Hyun-jun, 'Ju'Daniel Lindemann as a guide. I learn so much that I don't know if I should pay for it." It raises expectations for a Berlin architectural trip.
How Germany remembers the war with architecture can be found on MBC 'The Reasoned Architecture-Space Traveler', which airs at 9 p.m. on Tuesday, September 16.
Meanwhile, MBC 'The Reasoned Architecture-Space Traveler' is a new concept architectural talk show that tells stories that cross various fields such as history, culture, economy, art, and science through architecture. Star architect Yoo Hyun-joon and Jeon Hyun-moo, Hong Jin-kyung and Park Sun-young will appear.
