A roundup of cultural events in Busan: The Busan Municipal Theatre stages the play Tao (based on Kim Se-hwa’s novel) from Aug 2–4, following the disappearance of a Vietnamese student and exposing issues like migrant hardship, poverty, language barriers and institutional indifference. Family musical Jonah from the Fish’s Belly (children’s musical) offers a free, imaginative show for all ages on Aug 13–14 at BEXCO Auditorium. Idol-artist Feeldog (필독) holds a solo exhibition “Busanmul” at Space Topping through the 19th, turning fleeting movement and hometown memories into paintings and objects—reframing 부산물 (Busanmul: literally “Busan remnants,” here meaning accumulated personal memories and traces) as meaningful traces of life. O Gallery opens with Park Cheong-yong’s solo show “Jingak (眞覺: true awakening),” presenting Buddhist-inspired works that invite visitors to reflect inwardly; the exhibition runs until Aug 30 with regular hours and reservation options.
