Korea's First Alive Museum in Suntec City Mall Singapore

After much hype and anticipation, I finally made my way to the Alive Museum in Suntec City Mall Singapore! I did not just go alone (duh) but I went with my wife, my mum, aunt, sister and sister's bf.

1st thing 1st, the "mandatory" Angel shot. Glen was way too tall for this and we had a good time laughing at the fact that the wings came out of his hip. I was trying to be emo but i look fat and that's all. LOL.


My action pack mother! 



Hip-ster angel. Like literally. 
The original Alive museum 1st opened in 2009 in north south korea. It is also the world's largest chain of such entertainment concept where 3D art comes alive with clever painting, shading and drawing techniques.
I believe this was placed there for me. 
This is very 3D indeed. Maybe just double Ds to be honest.  
Oh Hello~ 
Alive museum is expanding globally. Besides this one in Singapore, they always have 8 other branches in Korea, 3 in China, 1 in Turkey, 1 in Thailand and 1 in Vietnam. A total of 15 Branches around the world!

My mum is 64 and still rocking it. We answer all the doubt of where my craziness came from. And yes, your mum can visit the museum too!



There are over 80 masterpieces, of which 9 are locally themed and unique to Singapore.

Apocalypse? bitch please. Can you spot MBS?
Don't worry. This is just ponding not a flood! 
Big Mouth Man! 
To be honest, visiting this gallery ain't exactly an easy job. In order to take nice pictures one needs to know how to post and shoot. Lucky for noobs like us there's always demo pictures on the walls as well as photo point stickers on the floor to guide you along! 

Besides that, some of the pictures are not as easy as it seems okay! I just can't get this right. TOO FAT LAH! 
And I got a little pissed at the king of "popped"
AHHH!!! GO AWAY LAH! STOP TRYING TO KISS ME!
Of course he ain't the only person who I got a fight into. 




#ProTip

The museum ain't the biggest place so my advice is avoid the crowd if possible and go early or during weekdays off peak period. Tell your boss you need to be away for 2hours or so, I'm sure he will get it! Go with a group of people who are crazy enough and also able to take nice pictures for you. 

Fingers crossed to not meet big groups of kids.
A few exhibits can share the same space so be prepared to wait for your turn.
Be prepared to crop the pictures when you are home. And don't set your expectation too high if you are not prepared to do the above. As some of these are printed on the wall and not painted using paint, be prepared for a lot of reflective balls of light. I did not even use any flash in these pictures. 

Raw picture. I mean no cropping nor editing the lighting.
Quick Facts 

Address: Suntec City mall #03-372

NOOOOO
My wife who is hardly impressed had a good time too. I am sure you would too.
In conclusion

We had a very good time hanging out. The walk is just about right, not too long nor too short. And I shall not spoil you with too many images cause the best experience should be experienced by yourself! Around 30% of the masterpieces will be changed every 12-18 months thus locals will be able to enjoy a brand new experience on your repeated visit. 

LOOK HONEY!
Mr.Smith, I~~ FEEL SO ALIVE!!! FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME!!

Korea's first Alive Museum in Suntec City Mall Singapore offers a unique, interactive experience with optical illusions and immersive art. I’ve been working with managing my assignments and thinking I might need to rethink my student education plan. I’m unsure whether I should focus more on time management or get some extra help. Has anyone here adjusted their plan and found something that really worked for them?
