"A play that deserves ten stars!!!" "A whole life in 90 minutes!" These are some of the reviews of Beautiful Life posted on a theater booking website. You may have some doubts before seeing the show, but you may find yourself writing the same review afterward.

Beautiful Life won the "Fine Art Award" in the theatre/music category at the 2019 Korean Wave Awards. It is given to the work that best represents South Korea in the year, proving that the play is worthy of global acclaim and that people around the world can relate to.

Two lead roles, Chun-shik and Soon-ok, fall in love from the first moment they meet. They drift apart for a while but eventually start a family and grow old together as an old couple. One day, Soon-ok falls ill and decides to get a divorce for the sake of her husband, Chun-sik. The film moves back and forth between the couple's present and past. You might expect the story to be depressing or sad, but it is both funny and touching, making you laugh and cry at the same time. The two actors are excellent in their performances. They play an old couple, their younger versions, and even extras. It's hard to believe that this is a two-person play. It is a multicasting work, and writer Kim Won-jin and director Cho Joon also appear alternatively to play the role of Chun-sik.

ARKO Art Center was founded in 1974 as Misulhoegwan in a building of former Deoksu Hospital in Gwanhun-dong, Jongno-gu to offer much-needed exhibition space for artists and arts groups. In 1979, Misulhoegwan moved to its present building, designed by preeminent Korean architect Kim Swoo-geun (1931-1986) and located in Marronnier Park, the former site of Seoul National University. The two neighboring brick buildings accommodating ARKO Art Center and ARKO Arts Theater are the major landmarks of the district of Daehakro.

As more public and private museums and commercial galleries came into the art scene in the 1990s, Misulhoegwan shifted to curating and presenting its own exhibitions. Renamed as Marronnier Art Center in 2002, ARKO Art Center assumed a full-fledged art museum system and played an increasingly prominent role as a public arts organization leading the contemporary art paradigm. When The Korea Culture and Arts Foundation was reborn as Arts Council Korea, Marronnier Art Center became ARKO Art Center named after the abbreviation for Arts Council Korea in 2005.

ARKO Art Center is committed to working as a platform where research, production, exhibitions and the exchange of creative activities grow and develop in connection with one another in addition to having a diversity of programs including thematic exhibitions addressing social agenda and public programs widely promoting various discourses in art.
