A giant Pokemon balloon floated on Seokchon Lake in Seoul Friday, marking the return of the popular Pokemon art balloon exhibition, which drew more than three million visitors in 2024.
This year’s event is organized in collaboration with the Songpa-gu District Office and Lotte Group, a major South Korean conglomerate.
The display centers on Ditto, a purple Pokemon known for its ability to transform into any form.
A 16-meter-tall Ditto-as-Lapras balloon floats above the lake, with a Ditto-as-Pikachu perched on its back. Nearby, additional Ditto figures installed near the Lotte World Tower offer photo opportunities and contribute to the festive atmosphere.
The installation will remain on view through May 18.
