(BUSINESS WIRE)--The world’s largest indoor culture and art auditorium will soon be open in Korea.

The auditorium named ‘Korea Culture Center’ is being built and is scheduled to open in the Holy Eden Church’s (President: Young-soo Lee) premises, an hour’s drive from Seoul. It is as high as an 18-story building, and has a 5,800-seat capacity in the gross floor space of about 70,000 m2.

Comparing with ‘National Center for the Performing Arts’ in Beijing China, which has been known as the world-largest so far (149,520 m2, 5,473 seats), the ‘Culture Center’ is smaller in the gross floor area, but has 327 more seats.

The auditorium was designed by Young-soo Lee, and has been constructed for about 5 years under the supervision of Lee after 10 years of preparation.

The ceiling of Korea Culture Center has over 480,000 bulbs, representing the 6 galaxies, and 4,500 colorful LEDs, showing the mystery and wonder of the universe.

At the center of the ceiling is a golden image of ‘Young-soo Lee having an audience with the God at the spiritual world.’ On the 6th and 7th floors, the 32 pictures contained in the pictorial published recently by Lee are exhibited.
