KNN Theater
KNN시어터
About
A small underground theatre for intimate plays and musicals, with a warm, book-café-like feel.
Five actors singing in harmony are the detail that stays with visitors to KNN시어터. Reviews describe the musical drama *The Inconvenient Convenience Store 2* (뮤직드라마 불편한 편의점 2) as warm, funny and touching, with a family-friendly story. It is a small underground theatre rather than a grand auditorium, and the sound is praised as pleasant. The production in those reviews is an example of what has played here, not a guarantee of what is currently on; check the current programme before you go. Inside, the room feels more like a book café than a formal theatre: reviewers mention a clean, comfortable space and a warm, close-up atmosphere. That intimacy suits a play built around performers and song, and works for a date, a family outing or a solo evening. One visitor also noted a photo spot and a book by the playwright for sale, though those details may depend on the production. Finding the entrance takes a little care. It is on basement level 1 of KNN Tower, next to the Starbucks building, and some visitors say the signs are easy to miss; allow time to locate it rather than aiming for the main KNN building entrance. There are chairs in the basement corridor if you arrive early. Booking method affects seating: NOL tickets let you choose a seat, while Naver bookings are assigned at the desk on the day, first come, first served. Blog posts list all seats at ₩66,000, with Naver booking described as slightly cheaper than some other sites. Do not arrive late: one visitor says entry was refused 31 minutes after the show began. Parking is available in KNN Tower’s basement, with the first two hours free and then ₩1,000 per 30 minutes, paid by QR code near the elevator. Weekend traffic can be heavy, so build in extra time. This is a good fit if you want a compact live performance in a relaxed setting; English-language support is not documented, so check details in advance if you need it.
