To ensure that even its busiest patrons have time to enjoy the fun, the museum stays open each day until 9PM, making it a popular date and hang-out place.* Opening date: December 15, 2010* Tour course: Trickeye Museum – Ice Museum - Carnival Street* Trickeye Museum's TV appearances1) EBS ‘Bonihani’ (Children’s educational program)Children visited the Trickeye Museum to discover the science behind trick art paintings and to demonstrate the principles.2) KBS ‘Scandal of Masterpieces’Discussion on the new approach/interpretation of the painting ‘Scream’ by Edvard Munch.
